What if I don't do decals, just the yamaha tuning forks on the tank? Pucks should be...

 

it looks like your front brake is blue right? i would say then keep the pucks blue if you have blue on the bike already. if you are going to do a different color then gold and white make sure you play it all throughout the bike and not just in certain areas, i personally think the bike looks great as is right now a slight tint to the head lights and smoked rear light would really add a touch to it too

 

I love blue, but it has no place on white... no stickers either, they. are only to cover for bad lines or bad paint. just like that white R1 above, it's not needed.

 

Well I rode the bike around all day I couldn't wait, but just dropped it off at the painter to have it buffed and such. What a tease...

I'm leaning heavily towards no decals now.

Taillights are smoked

 

Oh, and I'm not a carbon fiber fan, AT ALL. I think it's tacky as fuck...but Spiegler makes the "carbon" fiber slider pucks...which would match this that I got off a forum member...

Yamaha YZF-R6 Accessories, Yamaha YZF-R6 R6 Tank Pad

...Just thinking out loud here.

Also, next plans are (in no particular order):

-Steering damper
-Install and dyno my PCIII (recommendations on a tuner down there? This will happen after I move down there)
-Front end swap to the newer inverted forks and bigger brakes (which coincidentally are gold forks and gold plugs on the calipers, although I hate anodized gold, it's more of an orange imo.)
-Galfer brakes (when I do the front end, not buying new brakes twice haha)

Not sure how I'm gonna make all that happen, plus buy a house and move to Clearwater and still have time to get to Jennings at least once this year, but I believe in me. And at the same time keep stocking up on ammo for zombie apocalypse.

 

I'd fuck your bike.

I HATE that model R6, but you sir have a beautiful bike.

 

cycle rama is a good place for a good tune.

 

i would look into getting the r6 usd forks.

 

What? The 2G is the best looking IMO. There are things I like about both, but the biggest thing about the newest R6's is the front of it looks like a fucking transformer head. I can't look at it and take it seriously.





CBR's too.

 

Roger that.

It's on my to-do list above.

Do you guys ever do trackdays? I've never done one and it'd be cool to do one with a a group I know. Even if I only get this thing to one track day a year, at least it won't only be for looking pretty and getting me to work.
