  1. Well, too late now!! Picked my one up saturday! And love it so far. Though wouldnt mind making a couple of modifications: gel seat - for the longer journeys brighter headlamp bulbs braided hoses + sintered pads for a bit more bite set of R&G crash bungs - always better safe than sorry! Anyway - the reason I went for the newer one, is im coming from riding sports bikes, so I like the fact that you have to rev this one!
  2. Cheers for the advice! I will have a look into that. I know that the bike has a black fairing, havent seen it personally yet so not sure on frame / engine colour. I would love another R6, especially a fuel injected one, but so far the fazer is cheaper, (not by much for a pre reg 05 model r6), but I also do need the interest free option. Plus the cheaper insurance etc.. The shop also have a 2006 naked FZ6 for only £3500, but no interest free option, so even with those looks....I wont be going for the naked! I think I will go for it - I will give them a call tomorrow, and see if I put a deposit on there and then, will they throw in a few bits, like a free restrictor kit, jacket, alarm etc lol.
  3. Hi everyone! I am new on this forum, so will introduce myself: My name is Ventzi. Last year I bought 2 R6's (from a mate that did some racing) - A road bike, and a complete bike that needed alot of putting together (He had been taking bits from it as spares for his track bike) Anyway - Both are the early carb models - the road bike being the updated model with twin rear lights, and project bike being a 1999 early model. I loved the bike, and did alot of miles in a few miles - and quite comfortably did a bit of touring here and there - once even with the girlfriend and a set of soft panniers on the back! Anyway - I sold that bike, and now need another one to do about 20-25 miles a day commuting and obviously weekend riding. I would love another R6 - but I have been thinking about getting a new FZ6 Fazer - Yamaha are currently doing 0% finance on them. I was just wondering if anyone has the 2006 or 2007 models - I know that Yamaha brought in the S2 for 07 - and now they have the S2 and a lower bhp model. But I have found a bargain - a brand new 2006 model in black, for £4199, with the 0% finance. Obviously, for a 2006 model, it isnt an S2 - but was wondering - in 2006, was there just the 1 full power model, or were there the lower bhp models? I like the S2 - but to be honest, if I get this 06 model, I am saving around £1100 - which can pay for insurance, nice end cans, little mods here and there etc. Anyone have the 06 model? Is it any good? Cheers!
