Default Finally the bike is nearly sorted

Bought my R6 back in august last year and then managed to throw it down the road in mid september. Last month I finished changing bodywork and gave the brakes an over haul.

This was pre accident



After the accident





After a bit of tlc, its now looking like this. Not mint but it'll do



Also did a track day at Cadwell last month, this is the only photo i've scanned but its pretty good. Just need to try and drop my shoulder a bit more



Just need to fiddle with the suspension a bit now as it seems to almost understeer at high speed. Have increased the rear preload which helped a bit. I might take the spacers off the rear sets to relax the riding position a bit and see if that helps too.

Roll on the good weather, off to Nurburgring at the end of july!
