^That should be a great first bike. How many miles on it?

I finished putting the R6 back together this past weekend. I bought a set of mint left fairings for cheap on Ebay and it's back to looking good as new. I'm so fucking sick of staring at the damn thing every day when I come home though. I wanna ride:icon_shaking:

Its got like 1300 on it, it's super nice, not a scratch.

No riding, but plenty of getting it ready for the show.

What show?

[Racingman24]

Here's mine:

'03 R6 LE

And one with my giant ass on it...

And one of my old bike.

Yes, obviously, there was alcohol involved.

I haven't gotten out yet this year. Too lazy to take the bike out of the entry way.

As for gear, since that was asked about also, I ride with an Alpinestars jacket, KBC helmet, Setup "vision" boots which are manufactured under the supervision of SIDI, and Alpinestars gloves. I don't fuck around.

I love the fit of all my gear, with only one complaint on the jacket, it doesn't have a zipper in it to connect it with a pair of pants for a track day.

Werd. I might be back in town, and I'm all about hittin' up bike/car shows. Especially if they are indoors. I'm lazy like that.

Nice, I'm fixing a '78 550K3 for my g/f to ride this season, just put some GP touring bars on this weekend in place of the stock ape hanger type things.
