Question needed or not?

recently I found a great deal on a minty 04' R6 so i bought it. i dont plan on doin any slow lot type stuff (no skills) on the bike, just the occasional long highway wheelie. d the R6 need an oil pick-up or over fill the oil any or am i all good with the stock set-up and oil amount?

It would be best to put an oil pick up anyways if there's one for the bike. You don't need to slow wheelie a bike to blow a motor.

They don't make an oil pickup. You'll have to buy the brackets to turn your motor around so the pickup is in the back when doing wheelies

Don't know if I have this right but I've heard that the GSX-R's have a big problem with oil starvation when your 12'd for a while. Did I hear right?

I hope to god he was being sarcastic... either that or somebody needs to smack the **** outta this guy

Didn't know you could turn your engine around and still ride going forwards

I had to have read this wrong or something, I'm confuzzled as hell
