George Whites in Swindon Funky, they have some in the Camel Colours too. That was my 2nd RR and its a great bike, tbh ... i dont like the 07RR, feels like a 125 between the legs realy skinny, the seat is so narrow. The R6 looks stunning and the Fiat colours just makes it alittle different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deepee Posted May 10, 2007 Author Share Posted May 10, 2007 Error, Yes i did get it from whites Today, Blinking Hoofing it down all day so stuck it in the garage Changed The Can, Fitted the tail tidy and closed the door again. As for Running in its Half the Clock revs so that's around the 8500 mark for 600miles. Theres no way im sticking to 4000 revs the engine will end up tight a FCUK you need to get it bedded in m8.

Deepee Posted May 11, 2007 Author Share Posted May 11, 2007 It was 7K Error, alittle more than a standard pre reg 06 R6 but i think its worth it. As for the running in you wont cause any damage, the same dealer told me 8500rpm, My last 600RR was 9000rpm limit as was my 1st m8. I've got no problem reving it to around 8500, this is my 3rd new bike and I had no problems with the previous 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Error Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 so where u from ? swindon? did u go to the whites weekend thingy ? about a month ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deepee Posted May 12, 2007 Author Share Posted May 12, 2007 Yer im from the swindon area m8, As for the Grand opening bash, I was working all weekend so was unable to attend but by all accounts it was a good few days from what i gather. One thing Whites does well is open days, auctions and big names are always going on along with some great bargains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Error Posted May 13, 2007 Share Posted May 13, 2007 i went on my old zx6r and when i see some of the bikes there i decided to get a new one . i rang white workshop and asked um about 4000 rev run it in thing and he said yamaha do say run in at 4k but if you do the bike wont be so responsive and that doing 8ish wont do any damage at all to the engine and its prob a better way of running it in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deepee Posted May 14, 2007 Author Share Posted May 14, 2007 Finaly the Rain Stopped enough for me to get the Road Silt off it after the ride home from the dealers on Thursday, had to put it away gopping till today, but still gave me time to Fit the Lazer Can and R&G Tail Tidy and Give it a proper Clean: And With the Rear Pegs Removed & Blanks Fitted.
