Default FS: 2005 Yamaha R6 - Team Blue - mint w/ mods! Must sell

I never wanted this day to come but...it has. Due to a recent death in the family, I will be selling my motorcycle to ease future worries.

Details:
2005 Yamaha R6
Yamaha Team blue/White
Shogun Frame sliders
FULL GYT-R exhaust system
Puig Tinted Windscreen
Hotbodies flushmounts
Fender Eliminator Kit
Fairly new BT021-R tires (Bridgestone)

2005 is the more sought after year for R6 bikes because it does NOT have the lingering 2nd gear tranny problem of the previous generations. Also, it has a better mid-range than the 06-07 model and still maintains an extreme top end. It was also the first year for the introduction of the inverted forks. This model makes a great track/street bike.

I must stress that this bike has been used mainly for commuting (10,xxx miles). It's seen oil changes every three thousand miles. Waxed the chain once every 2 weeks with maxima chain wax. Had my dad (30+ years motorcycle experience) adjust chain slack, etc. This bike is immaculate. It runs perfect, is blisteringly fast, and looks perfect still. I am asking 5,500 firm. I'll let the pictures do the talking.

Sorry to hear about your reason for selling the bike.

WTF is this?



Interesting looking frame slider. I hope it doesn't light up.

LOL....I was thinking the same thing.

Bike looks clean overall...I was looking to get the R6S anyway.

Yes, I know..they are exactly the same bike.

You live so far.

I reside in the Pacific Northwest.

It's a nice bike, regardless....I'm not sure if I'd ever go out of state for one.
