Hello everyone!
I will be buying a bike this week. I'm looking at an 04' r6 and a 600rr.
I like the feeling on the r6 alot better but i just had a few questions before i buy. I've been studying the past month on the r6. Why do all the magazines jag the 04 r6? They say that the front tire ratio kills the front end feeling. Does this mean the bike washes out on the street while being agressive? Sportrider said the r6 was the best 600 for 03'. It beat out the 600rr which is my second choice. I know the 600rr is a good bike but it is uncomfortable as hell. Finally on other r6 forums i heard of 2nd gear failures from 5000 to 20 miles. Was this only on the 2000 to 2002's?
I really want this bike but need to know from the experts. People who actually have r6's.
Thanks,
