R6 Sam

Thanks! Yes, im doing my direct access within the next month, got my Theory and CBT booked for next week. Hopefully ill pass first time, I can't wait to get on 2 wheels!

Hello everyone! Ive just taken deliver of a nice 2006 R6, its my first road bike so im looking for some advice!! Not riden it yet as ive got my test booked for 2 weeks time so not got a licence. Ive been riding Motocross for a couple of years so have an idea how to ride, obviously this is completely different so im going to take it very easy until im a bit more experienced, don't want to damage my pretty bike or my pretty legs! I was reading some reviews and it seems everyone is saying that the bike is missing a steering damper. Is there any point of me getting one for just road riding or is it a waste of time? Does anyone have anything to watch out for or any advice? Thanks, Sam
