Nice bike but the flush mount signals look a little strange mounted at that angle. Maybe it's just the picture.

aaahhh!! At least he didn't spell it "dampner."

I dunno about the rim tape, seems a little too light-colored to me. Might just be the camera.

Looks clean, though. '05 R6es are teh sex

edit: oh snap, you're in CU too!

i wouldnt say go that far. i dont need a lesson on 600's.i rode a 600 for 3yrs of hard riding and never once experienced head shake/tank slappers

i just cant stand the feeling of dampers even on my 929 i have the damper off 90% of the time.

nice bike, nice cam, i removed the decals on my 05 too, looks sooo much better.

as far as the damper, i remember this one time hauling *** up a freeway onramp, hit a little dip and the front end got a wee bit light, felt like i was riding a raging bull. my friends behind me said i was going from one end of the road to the other and looked like i was gonna get bucked off but luckily i held on and after a few minutes, my ***** returned from my stomach to their natural hanging position. so yes, dampers do help plus it's more bling.

i may be seeing shat but it looks like you need to flush brake fluid that looks nasty. other than that looks sweet.
