Hi all, just after a bit of advice really; Got an 08 r6 beginning of march, after putting down a deposit, the amount on 0% credit is £6100. made a payment so now down to £5900. right the reason for my post: it has been announced at work possible redundancy, and if i am laid off, i wont be able to keep up the repayments on the r6, so would have to sell. I dont know where i stand with taking the bike back, if the dealership would "buy back" the bike ( to be honest if i lost the £1500 ive already paid, it would be more peace of mind for me knowing the bike had been paid off) or if another garage would offer me more? The bikes done 100 miles, and ive been out on it twice, its in brand new condition. £7500 new, i cant see it dropping by £1500 in one month, but i could be wrong? Any thoughts from anyone on what i should do? Thanks.

Hi, I'm lance. live up near carlisle up north, 23, and own a 2007 r6, (well, getting a 2008 one next week!) Have had a few bikes, from a little DT50, then a suzuki dr350 through to a Fzs fazer 600, a cbr 600, and the latest is my r6. By far the best bike i've owned, much lighter and more agile than the older cbr. anyway just saying hi, no doubt speak to everyone in hear at some time! will be out in the summer too, normally hit hartside pass, if anyone else on here is ever out and about that way.

my 2007 r6 never had one, it was ok to ride, although twitchy on the front end under hard acceleration and higher top speeds. getting a 2008 r6 next week which is heavier on the front end, this is meant to sort out some of the twitch, but i'm going to consider a damper. will see how it rides first.
