not always tru, there are 600's that are quick just depends on rider and work done to the bike...i have a 02 R6 has a bit of work, iv ran 1000's with crapy riders and tore them up in a drag race...as some of u already said it alot to do with the rider.. bottom end on 600's can be very good but top end its no contest, a 1000 will kill a 600... im considering giving my bike to my girl and gettin a 1000 here soon.......i have intake/full system/stage3 jets/1- 3+ gearing/drag strap/stretch blocks.....

From my experience you should have around 90-95whp with those mods. You would need some experience if you wanted to install the jet kit yourself. Those Kehin carbs are bastards on that engine, I have a 98' YZF engine and it will be getting my sweet FZR Mikuni carbs installed on it.

K&N filter
stage 2 jet kit
ported and polish head
bored over 30
high compression pistons
aftermarket race cams
worked trans
D&D headers
D&D exhaust

make the bike faster?

like someone already said, learn to ride it, dont think you are fast if you can do 140 down the straights but park it in the curves.

second thing I would do, is set the suspension for you, you want the bike to handle like its on rails


I dont care what mods you have, I dont care what bike you have, if you dont know how to ride you aint going to be fast


rant - dont listen to a word ricksta says, I can take your yzf600 and smoke him and his R1 anyday of the week - end rant

need tires (take offs)? PM me
need a deal on a track day? PM me

disclaimer: I sell used tires (take-offs), these tires have been used at Jennings, Homestead, etc. (road courses for those that dont know) therefor these tires are more used up on the sides than in the middle,

if you want it faster in a straight line... spray it.



corners, learn to ride better and maybe some good tires and set up the bike to you.

learn to ride, if you're going 140 in a straightline and something pops up you're fucked just like every other squid out there that ONLY cares about going quick in a straightline.. goodluck

If you really want to help the guy out, try not posting uselss shit that just makes you look like a moron. Also, try to not tangent on to a totally different topic (AKA the YZF) when giving your .02

do a throttle mod where it goes WOT in less than 5% of rotation, that makes your bike UBER QUICK y0
i did that to my bike 2 zip ties glued to the piece where the throttle cables go over it... it was great though i could pop it up without a problem and didnt have to twist my hand all the way around for full throttle
