Muzz Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 I'm afraid i have a terrible affliction where i'm never satisfied with anything, however with my R6 rather than chop it in for the latest and greatest and take a hit on trade in/new price, i'm going to try a different route. Keep the bike and add some sensible mods. I've only been riding for 6 months, its a raven black '05 R6 on a 06 plate with 3000 miles and the bike is so much better than me, the power is more than enough. Next year i want to start doing track days and probably will only be riding on the road at weekends etc, what would some sensible modifications be, the bike is totally standard. I know the best mod is training for myself which i will be doing anyway, Superbike School etc. I just fancy throwing some money at it, i'm thinking carbon end can, ohlin steering damper and perhaps change the OE tyres if people think thats a good idea. Thanks
yoda Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Your going to lay it over so get some crash protection.
Muzz Posted November 8, 2007 Author Posted November 8, 2007 Your going to lay it over so get some crash protection. I've got some crash bungs, but they've been put alot lower that i would expect, the previous owner didn't want to damage the body work
yoda Posted November 8, 2007 Posted November 8, 2007 Put the bike on a paddock stand and face forward to it to see the extremities. Crash bungs go there. Carry with you spare levers and foot pegs to replace those broken.
motoman21 Posted November 10, 2007 Posted November 10, 2007 good luck with the bike. Im the same way I was that way with my car now Im doing the same with my bike. I have an 08 though. You can probably get a power commander, an exhaust and maybe velocity stacks. Im just going by what I've read here on the forums. The only thing I got on mine is a scorpion can and thats it. I say keep it and do it up with some more mods.
