            Congratulations on your R6, rwanchu! The bike looks great and must be in pristine condition. It's good that you chose the one in stock.
            Yes, 600ccs at the right hands can easily eat up 1000ccs for breakfast.
            I was amazed to read somewhere that R6s can be launched at a whooping 10,000rpm(Track)!!

                Simple, get onto to eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices and type 'R6 Camera Mount' in the searhc bar. You will find plenty of options. I had the fixed one on my Thunderace, it was some 30 USD then. Do not get fooled by marketing talk, these are almost as good build as some that cost twice as much. The adjustable type for some 40-50 USD odd are superb VFM.

                      thanks guys, i hope i don't mess it up ;P .... what i realized this morning is that half the fun of owning these bikes is working on them.....i installed the SHOGUN non cut frame sliders which meant taking the left plastics off and the engine bolt and using a torque wrench... i had done none of that earlier and i just learn every time i open it up...fun fun...i asked the dealership how much they would charge to install it, $100 OMFG like shit, they overcharge like crazy, thx god i did it myself....iam slowly getting the hang of the bike, like how it behaves and i realize that this bike is so sharp, i mean i can be at 22MPH and u can hold it there exactly without much problems, if u want to move to 23 u can, u can be exact and precise with it, it is SUCH a tool, ill add more riding talk later for now i got some more pics, i hope u guys like em

                              Thanks everyone, its a dream to drive everyday....

                              This is a long shot but does any one know the size of the screw that goes right below the back side end of the drivers seat and the screw that goes on the chassis and if they have specific torque requirement? heres 2 pics :

                                AFAIK- the screw looks like a 5mm or 6mm Allen bolt. And no, no torque requirement there. Hand tight is enough.

                                Nice pics... Post a start up, revs and a flyby.... We're suckers for SBKs...
