I just got a 2003 r6 can some one tell me how to gear it .

One guy told me one down five up is that cool?

 

depends on what you want to do

 

learn to ride/stunt it with stock gearing and then you'll get a feel for how much you need to change it. it should wheelie in 1st really easily, and 2nd with a a bit of work.

 

THANK FOR THE WORD i can us all the help i can get how hard are stoppies on this thang and how fast should i be going to hit the brakes.

 

i have the same bike it's sick

 

-1 and +2 is what i have and it makes a big difference and you still have alot of top speed.

 

-1 in front and i can stunt the **** out of my 2001 R6. i can highchair it and working on the slow stuff right now. seems to be the right set up for me!!

I thank thats what i am going to do frist just one down to start out thanks

 

CHECK out my boy mike he can stunt the **** out of he's

 

Stoppies on a R6 are just like stoppies on another bike.. no special R6 magic needed. Read other posts on starting stoppies.

And like AdamGeek said -- learn the bike stock. You can bounce that thing up in 3rd with practice without a gearing change, I promise. 4th if you REALLY work hard and set your front end up for very little compression daping and rebound damping.

 

Just watch your tail

IF YOUR MONTGOMERY TX YOU RIGHT DOWN THE ROAD FROM US

 

whats up. its me mike, i was like hey thats my pic lol. even though that pic was super duper old. ya i'm -1,+5 right now but i used to be -1, +2. -1+2 seems to be a good combo for everything without being too drastic. i'd say ride the stock gearing for a while til your chain needs to be replaced then go for the change. i know of a guy rockin circles on a r6 with stock gearing i believe. man you have to come down to the airstrip tomorrow, 4 different news channels are coming to film. 3, 6, 10, and the a&m kingsville college news crew. gonna be big time fun. call little john asap

 

i have an 03 R6 and it comes up in 3rd no clutch ....tho i am fat which may have sumthign to do with it but once you get timing down it isn't an issue to bring it up anymore ......nice bike choice man
