Batifan19 Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 Hiya.. I also have a T Reg R6 and it was my first bike too Bought mine last August, ive found with mine the clutch needs attention soon and I have just replaced chain & sprockets. Oils perfect for the age, its been maintained & changed regularly...just keep an eye on that...hoses etc Been riding mine now almost a year and the bike still amazes me now..

Harris-Dobson Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 even if you have a mate who you could call an 'expert' to look over it i think it should at least quarm any questions or concerns. If not then i suppose no harm in booking it into a garage. Luckily i have a section at work who service all their own cars/bikes etc, and i can pop mine down to them, even get the service paperwork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
