Wanna kill the tag on your posts?

So my 2012 R6 is my first bike, I used to work at a dealership and I had rode almost every bike on the US market, but of course that was all in parking lots and quick test rides, I immediately used some of my financing to buy gear to be protected but what has saved my life about a dozen times on california rods was the MSF course I took. Without being taught in course how to react to being cut off, I dont think I would be alive to type this message today. Thanks to the course I can ride rather safe but still thrill seeking as most who purchase an R6 are. This is my first day on forum but I just wanted to ask about performance upgrades and what you think of them, which are good, which are not.

Thanks
Experience is a great performance upgrade.

Great read. Even though I didn't.

My first bike was a 2 Cylinder 1985 Honda rebel 250.
My second was a 2 Cylinder 2005 Buell Blast 500.
Now I'm on my R6. I'll be sending this out to my noob buddies, too.

PS. I love this part: "Going fast in a straight line takes no skill, and cruising past the mall in a wifebeater and sandals takes even less."
:lmao
