Welcome to the forum, you have a cracking bike with the R6, I loved mine, it needs to be revved to get the best out of it and in the corners...... it's perfect.... light, flickable..... a joy to ride

Post up some pics of her , tell us a bit more about your biking history , oh and join in the banter

Welcome

Stephen

Welcome in - hopefully you haven't missed the good weather!

Some great runs available from Glasgow - for a bike like the R6.



Al. :D
If I am ever on life support - Unplug me......
Then plug me back in..........

See if that works .....

I used to run 34 front 38 rear, but I think the recommended ( from memory) was 36 front, 42 rear on my 09 R6
