Got the pics up.
 

I forgot to mention I converted it back to GP shift. You shoulda seen me fucking up shifts on the way home with the regular pattern. I also had them swap he new Dunlops from the '09 for my Pilot Powers from my '06. F Dunlops. The reflectors have since been removed.

Now I'm off to ride it!

Fucking HAWT! :drool::drool::drool:
Congrats you lucky bastid! :dthumb:

That bike is bad ass.. If was getting a 600 that would certainly be the bike.

:drool:Bad MOFO right there

NICE!!! for a yami! :wink:

WTF are you talking about... That is the sickest looking 600 period.

I'm loving it! looks nice man. Always like the black with Gold rims! Reminds me of Smokey and the Bandit...

Nice bike, looks very sharp!!

Looks good man.

DLIT... you and your R6s.... remember this one?

:drool::drool::drool::drool: Congrats on the new bike.

Nice broseph. Nice.

Damn... that's a good looking bike! yeah definitely more... DLit-esk than the Orange...

Yeah, dude. Fucking tool. They were already trying to sell my '06 while it was on the lift getting the tires swapped onto my '09. It was to a new rider. I pulled him aside a bit later and basically told him the R6 isn't a noob bike. Try a R6S.

Thanks for the compliments, guys. I'm missing the old Raven's wheel stripes though. I think I mat take my wheels to a good paint shop and have them paint a thin, black wheel stripe on.

just get some wheeltape.

I want it done by a pro so the shit comes out right. I don't think I've seen anyone put wheel tape on totally straight. I'm anal with my shit. It's gotta be perfect.

Looks fuckin awesome man. How long til the new track plastics get ordered?

I bet you could do it,the key is to take your time and set a point from the edge and steady yourself against some point on the bike and have someone else slowly spin the wheel. It's actually very easy. Besides,wheel tape comes off if you get tired of it...

Nice, so what you get for your 06?

$6,300.

so a new bike for 6700 then... not too bad...

My '06 wasn't paid off, but I was happy with what they gave me. I wasn't upside down when I left.

that's the key.

Gorgeous bike, how's the feel/power compared to your trade-in?

The handling feels more nimble. I haven't really opened it up yet. I break 'em in fairly easy. I think I brought it to 14k a couple times today during the 180 mile ride. The midrange is a bit stronger than my '06 was though. My biggest surprise was how noticeable the handling was.

Wow that looks sick! Congrats on the new ride.

But you don't clean your chain. :wtf:

:lol:

:lol: Truth.

hawt bike

love the wheels, what exhaust u going with?

Wait till you get rid of that paper tag. They don't fair well at speed.

:cool:

The local dealership had four when we went by yesterday...

-Black and gold - gold rims look much nicer in person than what I was expecting.
-Orange - love the color not a huge fan of the decals.
-Red, gray, and white - NOT a fan! Really do not like the red seat.
-Blue - looks nice.

Should have told him only vaginas ride R6s and real men ride R1s with turbos.

It looks nice as hell though. I wish I didn't click on this thread because monday between work and school I can kill time by stopping by the local Yamaha/Honda dealership. (Talking to self) Very bad no don't do it damnit!!!

I hit 170 yesterday and the tag held up just fine.

I want to try to get an all carbon fiber system...well can anyway. I'm not getting a slip-on, I'm gonna hold off and wait until I can afford a full system so it'll be a while before I have one on there. Then I'll need a power commander and get it dyno tuned for max performance.

so much for break'n it in according to the manual then huh :lol:


so what were all the changes from last year?

I spoke to a very, very, very fast shop owner out here who recently sold his GSXR and picked up a new 1000RR. I asked him how he broke it in and he said he breaks it in the way he rides and doesn't do anything different. That inspired my top speed run. I had more, but we were going into a headwind that was blowing pretty hard.

The changes from '08? A remapped ECU. '08 was when everything was redesigned.

:lol: I was just give'n ya shit cause ya said somewhere you were break'n it in according to the manual...

I personally broke my ZZR in (barely before I looped it.) but as I wanted to ride it... lots of oil changes though...


so coming from your 06... what changes are there?

* Over 50 friction-reducing strategies have been employed inside the engine, including the use of wider crank bearings.
* Upgraded fuel injection mapping for the YCC-T dual-injector system complements the higher compression ratio for great throttle response and reduced engine braking.
* A magnesium subframe removes weight from the rear of the motorcycle for increased mass centralization.
* All-new frame takes handling to the next level, allowing more precise turn-in, greater corner speed, and tighter exits. Thicker headpipe-headstock and swingarm pivot area walls, and elimination of the frame crossmember, help achieve perfect balance.
* New swingarm has internal ribs added, and extruded section is now forged to work with the new frame.
* Revised outer fork tubes, a new lower triple clamp, and increased fork offset provide highly tactile front-end feedback.
* Moving the rider and bars forward and slightly lower enhances braking and turn-in performance. Clip-ons are also lower and re-angled.
* Front discs are 310 x 5mm instead of 4.5mm for increased cooling qualities.
* Increased fork height adjustability and rear ride-height adjustment range accommodate a greater range of riders and tires.
* Revised bodywork results in even greater aerodynamic efficiency.

It also has the variable intakes.
They never posted the wet weight of the '06 but the '09's wet weight is 414lbs.

nice that's nearing the wet weight of the RR...

What's the RR's wet?

the 08 was..412 claimed... but Road Racing world had it at 409


they had the R6 as 425 both claimed and real world

I saw some Sport Rider riders at the track yesterday doing some tests. They're not that fast.

the riders or the bikes?

and I think it'd be hard to say... I mean they're trying to get an impression of the bikes... not blister the lap times...

or were they just there fuck'n around?

:dthumb::dthumb: good thinking .I'll prob buy gear and goodies before my new bike if i am solid on picking a size and one maufact.

My next mods will be frame sliders and SS lines.

I see a lot of people going to these. Is the difference really that noticeable?

Two words. Fuck yes.

yes... I noticed it quite a bit... much more bite on hard braking... my rear brake I locked up alot but that had a bit to do with new rearsets (brake lever at a diffrent angle) and new rear pads...

They help a TON on the track, too. Once you start getting faster and faster, they're good to eliminate brake fade. What's brake fade? It's when you go into turn 1 hot after a few laps and you squeeze the brakes and your damn lever hits your clip-on and you're barely slowing down. Happened to a buddy of mine almost every time he went to the track. He finally got SS lines...fixed!

Awesome 09 there Dlit... I didn't see that one coming. I figured you'd hold onto the 06 for a while longer. :dthumb:

You could afford the system now if you didn't get assraped on the cost of the bike, sucker :panic:

I got away with a decent price for the Vegas market. System or not, all you'll see is the back of my bike.

Shit talking at it's finest.

Not at my track. Shit would blow your mind. Unlike any other track.

We have a technical, elevation changing track out here, too. You would be way behind me all day...until I'm about to lap you. Then, I will feed you my shit. Then, you'll shit out the shit that I made you eat and make you eat it again.

:lol: Thats a shitload of shit.

Oh you silly nubs, we all know I'm the fastest at the track.

Because my bike is green. :scared:

And you say I scare you? *shivers*

Only Hippies go Green.

You would crash, or lose.

It's only been about five weeks and I have more miles on it than Marko does his Buell.

Ooh. Low Blow.

Ass grabber.
