hi

Post by highside »

Hi ,I have just bought a 2005 5sl, Usd forks version.
10 years old 6800 miles and looks like it too.
Been riding since 1976, so this the first bike I can honestly say has outperformed my ability.
I'm still learning how much this bike can do (and I can).
Before I've had mostly two strokes , and currently a KH500 a8.
I live in Coventry and work all over the country.
The R6 has had a small end can and K&N filter put on since I've had it, the standard exhaust is a bit big !!.

Welcome mate, sounds like you've found yourself a good R6.

Some photos would be great. I rode quite a few Jap 2 strokes in my youf and still have fond memories of the Suzuki triples.
