Yeah, and 1st give is proper twitchy so I prefer 2nd gear all round... But you have to clutch it up at 70mph so you're going pretty fast.

My NGK Iridium IX plugs arrived:



I've also ordered the DynoJet kit and K&N air filter:





Another £200 gone...

I also emptied the tank and topped up with Shell Optimax as that's what I want the bike setup to run on.

I'm taking it to H M Racing but there's a 3 week waiting list.

If you're around 5'11 we could do a deal with the lot if you're interested (paid over £1.5k for the gear alone).

How do you get on with the R6? I had a 51 plate last year and I HATED IT.. Rapid for a 600 but soooo unforgiving to the point it was dangerous! Had to sell it in the end as it sat around doing nothing due to the fact I just didnt enjoy riding it

R6 is a PIECE OF PISS to get on the back wheel you can light it up nicely too Lots of power in a light chassis = wheelies!
