It's a 56 plate black 06 R6, around 3500 miles on the clock. Only mods are R&G bungs, bar ends and a tail tidy.

Will do a proper post with pics nearer the time, but thought I would give a heads up

Why? How much?

I have looked into it and it makes more sense to buy out there rather than ship the bike over.
First dibs on the Abba stand please!!!

Whatcha want for it and are the fittings for an SV?

Not a prob if not. Still want it though.

Oh really!!? So Jester....what were you saying again about what my bike looks like?!!

Fitting kit is for the R6, but you can buy the SV kit and sell the R6 one on ebay so it'll on cost 5-10 quid to swap it over.

As for price - not sure yet - have to check flea bay, to see prices butyou can have first dibs.

NOT IN A MILLION YEARS.
Worth the extra ~£2k NEW price difference??? Every day

I'd sooner have a 1yr old R6 than a NEW SV650

I'd sooner have a 6yr old SV650 and the rest of the money in my pocket for other stuff than either of the above mind

£2500k price difference at least.

Of course it is, but only as you can't buy new curvey models.

Here is a very brief rundown of what I thought.
<snip>
I've ridden R6s of every model and one thing always strikes me as being extremely good about them.

The throttle tube from a later R6 makes an excellent quick-action throttle modification for an SV650...that's about all the good I can say about the R6.
