It's not an old design. They updated the S version in 06 to have inverted forks. It's a great fucking bike.

If you're not going to track the shit out of it you don't need the real R6.

no shit? went back to inverted forks? that was the only "OLD TECH" about that bike really... the non inverted forks

The '09 R6S, and the other S years have always had conventional forks, they're still non-inverted.

And another thing is that it comes with a 120/60 front, not a 120/70 like all the other bikes out now. It literally is the same exact bike as the '04 but with different paint schemes every new year it comes out. Literally, down to the weight and everything.

Yeah you're right.

I saw one recently that had done a swap. Fucked with my head a little bit.

Maybe. Now I'm getting confused. Fuck that bike, new r6 FTW! :lol:

the only year they offered the inverted forks was 05... 06 it went to the new body... and the R6s went back to the non-inverted forks... where apparently.... it stayed
