Finally got my dream bike

Ive been riding for two years now, went from a 86 VFR 750, to a 03 yzf600r, to a f2 CBR, and now this. I have always loved the way gsxrs drove and i think they are by far one of the cleanest looking bikes.

I picked this up for $3950, i had it delivered, so i really paid $3800 for it. Its an 06 600, jardine pipe, PC3, puig screen.

What ive done already:
Rim tape
CRG Bar end mirror
Hot bodies mirror turns
Tinted tail
Lowered about 2" in the front

Whats being delivered :
Woodcraft tapered clip ons with gel grips
Apryk shorty
Adjustable black levers

Lowered for the time being cause i like the look but ill end up doing a track day this year so itll be raised back up.

( PS, no i usually do not ride without gear on, i ordered my lid a week ago from MS, paid for overnight and it just got shipped today.)

ROFLMAO, a helmet isn't the only thing you missing. Put some damn pants on, some boots, a jacket and some gloves.


Nice bike though.

Re: Finally got my dream bike

So you have had 3 bikes, this being your fourth but you own no gear? You are going to get eaten alive.

In Florida a backwards baseball cap IS considered viable head protection.


BTW, what the hell is an "Apryk shorty" ?

Obvious troll is obvious..and even if he isn't a troll.. he won't do well in this forum. I give him 3 days max til the .
Honestly, it will probably be tomorrow morning or so after everyone gets back on here when they are back at work.

Re: Finally got my dream bike

I crashed my previous bike (03 SV650S) and I made sure I LENT a helmet (my old one touched down in my crash) when I went to test ride new bikes to buy...

When I first got my first bike (same SV650S), it stood in my garage for like 3 days before I rode it, because I didn't have gear... I sat on it every day when I got home... even started it... hehe... but I was too scared to ride without any gear...

Got the gear on the thursday... rode about 50km... at night... at highway speeds... went to work the next day on it... dropped it doin a slow u-turn that evening... hehehe... it happens...

I've ridden once or twice "down to the garage" with just a helmet and regular clothing on... it didn't feel good... I always ride in cowhide... from the neck to the toes (my head has a composite fibre, fibreglass covering...lol)...

Squid... get some gear...

You do that..while others try to help. If you want to mind your own business, you are doing a bad job at it.
