sold.......

Its what these engines are made for....if you change oil every 3k miles and just take care of the bike...the engine will last years and years. I have a 1971 honda 350. The rpm range is the same proportionately to what the 6r is. I am rebuilding the engine now for the first time in almost 40...

6000 rpms.... 5th gear matches the rpm gauge almost perfectly...60mph = 6k, 70mph = 7k 6th gear is slightly lower...70mph is going to be right around 6k rpms, maybe just slightly higher

Ya, this site is a good resource if you have questions on the 6r...as for your Q bout long trips...I put just under 1000 miles on the bike in 2 days a few weekends ago, and could have gone more. ...if you are still thinkin bout buying a bike....mine is for sales HERE....umm, now w/ 39XX miles

lower price....up!

...slacker... j/k .... we should take a pole and see where the spread of the members are, maybe have a www.600cc.org meet, or a huge meet with the other sister sites...?...

hmm I bet that is what is keeping it out of the US. Here its 50cc's and smaller with no license vs 150cc across the pond...I think that bike is geared towards lighter riders and younger kids that want to take it on the track. Most people over 18 don't fit the bill of even being able to fit on...

I downgraded on power w/ this bike. I have had an r6, 636 and an f4i as far as sportbikes go over the years. Get what you want. If your goal is to squid it up on the highways pushing 162mph on the 4 lane highways, or trackdays, go for it....Until you ride 50+ bikes, you will have no idea your...

good call...I doubt the 125 will make it to america anytime soon though...

Maybe you have a higher standard for oil over there?....doesn't break down or need to be changed as soon.
