Hi all
Mike from the midlands area...
Passed my Mod 1&2 Tuesday & Wednesday this week...
I have a 1999 R6, got it quite cheap but does have a few little issues... Nearly all done.......
Hoping to get out on the road soon... See you all there

mate you have the bike , like i said your on a steep learning curve & you may drop it so as you've said maybe worth waiting a while to paint it or you could look into chinese fairings as some od the guys on here have rated them
