SPILL IT ON ME whats the pros and cons of this bike other than the fact i should just get an f4i.

sdfkillz

depends on which model ur talking about.

YoungBuck

Make it NEKID and cage it. That **** explodes on impact

kaiks

the normal. not the limited or what not

sdfkillz

weak subframe, weak motormounts, otherwise pretty solid bike. dont run a FI cage.

YoungBuck

you talkin the YFZ r6 model or the stright up r6 race style. No matter what the plastics on a yamaha are down right paper thin so if you plan on stuntin it go nekid or get a damn good cage for it. As soon as you lay it down the plastics explode.

I know the 08 model the plastics basic-ly flap in the wind cause they are so thin

sdfkillz

theyre the same plastics as every manufacturer uses....and when u have a cage u shouldnt have to worry much about ur plastics unless ur a squid and gonna let ur bike go flying at 25mph...

YoungBuck

Hm I noticed the side plastics on the Raven Edition of the R6 in 08 are pretty much different and very thin. I guess implying Im a squid? Guess so. Wouldnt know dont own a R6 and dont let my bikes ride by their selves at 25 mph

Jonne_J

the 06 and up R6 are the best looking bikes imo :YEAH

If you buy one please keep it FF

Andreas

I have the newer R6 and it works fine for me..

if i was going to say youre a squid i wouldnt imply i would just say it, guilty conscience?

YoungBuck

Nah got nothing to be guilty about. Wasnt sure if you were implying something or not so figured I would ask. Hey what can I say. Im new and learning.

Filming friday evening. Gona post it up

R6 is a good *** bike but the oil pick ups is needed like bad in them bikes

i just blown my motor cause im dumb and didnt think when you see the oil light come on set the bike down!

I have a 05 r6 and love it. If you buy one try to find the 05' cause it is the only year they put inverted forks and a dual radiator fan on it. Never had a problem with motor mounts or my plastic. I run a powers cage on it and a FI 12 bar.
All my friends that ride f4i or 636 love the fact that it will run a low idel and not die. And the subframes are weak but i just welded diamond plate on the inside of it and it stronger than my frame now!!!!

here are some pics

I just bought one and will form an opinion very soon.

So far I have:
F4i throttle tube
Fullthrottle kit (new cable style)
MSR lever
13tooth front sprocket (stock out back)
M4 short GP pipe
Stock clipons flipped.


Not sure if I'm gettin a cage or just goin with race rails. I don't wreck much and had rails on my f4i with no problems.

Deff gettin a round bar and bracing the subframe.

i have an 06 r6 an probably the biggest sqiud but its handled everycrash ive thrown at it and the tank has never exploded i did break the subframe when i 12vd it and dragged the tail right at the point... i just fplidded a stoppie on it and just broke the wind screen but thats probabaly because i broke the bikes fall suckie...

-GoBLIN-

i got an 06 r6, and all i got on it is stock pipe, +4 out back, stock up front sproket size wise, tyger shark cage the CS3 or whatever, home made sub cage, took all the fairings off, acerbis headlight, MSR shorty on the clutch, stock clipons, not flipped but turned out a little bit. Holds up fine... but im also stuck in japan now, so i havnt ridden it in a munite....
