    @ all thank you for your wishes

    I do plan to bring the bike back home but i have other plans as well like may be selling this one off and getting a newer 1000......the bike is lowered as the person who was using it before me was short(it was a girl actually!!!)
    transitioning from the 15 to the 6 was very easy. thats when i realized how well made and balanced r15 was.
    something new is that i dont have to twist the throttle all the way to feel the power. to be honest m still scared to twist the throttle all the way on the first or second gear because the front WILL jump up suddenly. even though I can do wheelies on an r 15 controlling this thing is a big task!!

                    2005 afaik was the best year for the r6, the upgraded front forks came in and it still retained the masculine styling of the older r6. And at 2500USD, it is a good deal indeed, bikes in this condition are listed at 3500+ on craigslist.

                    Congratulations buddy, keep the rubber side down
                    A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

                            Congrats ! that is one sweet ride ! and you got it for a price thats lesser than the R15 , puts the icing on the cake ... simply beautiful .

                            noob question : does the lower ride height alter the handling or ride dynamics in any way whatsoever ?
                            People ask me , why are you cribbing about the BHP ? to them I say "MORE is never ENOUGH" xbhp.com

                              The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.
