    You need to invest in some engine case guards ! Either gb racing or woodcraft, right angle valve stems next tire change, maybe a higher windscreen. Check out the zero gravity, not the double bubble that everyone gets, but the taller smooth profile one, name escapes me at the moment. New brake lines and definitely some block off plates for those mirrors when you hit the track again. Bike looks sweet!! Nice job!

    TST industries hands down has the best fender eliminator kit for the R6 the one that is set low under the tail section… way lower profile and the machining is top notch. It also comes with a clean block off plate for where the old fender used to be. NRC looks kinda cheap and does not flow well with the tail section in my opinion. Looks pretty awkward. Pair the TST industries with the JL designs indicators and you’ll have the cleanest looking 2017-2020 R6 tail. It’s a bit more work than the NRC but waaaayyyyy worth it. 😉 Everything else though is very nice 👍🏽

As someone with the same height and inseam as you, do you find that your back hurts while riding because of the size of the bike and your height?

      It helps if you’re fit. It’s a track bike and not very comfortable for commutes. Buy it for excitement and for the thrill but don’t buy it because you want to do 2+ hour highway rides.. it will hurt you in places you can’t imagine lol

Sport bikes stay on the market for months at a time because of the disinterest. I would have been trying for very long to sell a R3 if I did by one. I did however buy an MT-07 and had it power restricted until I feel comfortable with the full power.

After reading about the difference between the two,, I decided to save the difference. Happy so far with them. I love how much adjustment these have. If I had to nit pick one thing, I wish the orange adjuster was closer to the orange on the forks. They are dark and at first glance may look red.
