Re: r6 downfalls
Once you get an aftermarket subframe and stuntstay there a really nice bike!
I had a Omr subcage, si cage, atown subframe and mini 12bar, 905 stuntstay, hohey bigrotor dual calliper, magura 13mm. And I liked it way more than the 04 636 that I have now!

Re: r6 downfalls
Subframe is junk and the clip ons but replace them with c4 innovation by dave cutler, i had his twelve bar that tucks in the tail and his subframe with a powers sub cage , dam near bullet proof.....The only other bad thing is the cooling fan realy goes bad but still works but in that relay it has igntion features that causes it to run on couple of cycl on circles or straight wheelies but just replace and your fine along with the coil packs sometime go bad...

Re: r6 downfalls
some times the fuel pumps fall apart when you crash so you have to take it out and put it back together and most of the crash cages for that bike mount to a very weak part of the motor

Re: r6 downfalls
pros.......pull the same if not more than a 636, more power, great brakes, light as hell. and get an rsc...
cons......stock subframes are junk, stock clip ons snap off when riding, fuel pumps dont take to much of a beating, Ive had the 05 forks snap in half on me(went to 06+) tanks are also a bitch to dent and make em look nice lololol
ATC makes a whole set up for this, subframe, subcage, shorty 12 bar, and cage for them. Go that route so your bike is indestructable
