Yo you gotta have pics. thinking of trading my r6 for one. actually right now its a toss up between 1000rr or R1. Do you mind if ask how much you got it for?

But Congrats on the new bike

OMG dude thats a nice car you have. its so tempting to trade you my r6 and sell my gsr and pick up your car. but you already bought a bike so you probably wont even trade n e more

i got a really really good deal on this brand new 03, and iv heard from several people that the 04 isnt that much faster, true it has a 180 hp but the 180 is all the way up top almost at redline

but either way im happy, this thing is faster than **** stock i cant wait to modify it

I've got the Yosh full system stainless w/ti sleeve on my R6 and it sound great, it even "gargles" a lot when slowing down, closing throttle.
