yes, the new R6, and R1's are so hot! That is THE BEST looking bike on the market. The price I cannot deal with but its beautiful. Please tell me he actually sides the bike rather than to just down gear and go like most.

The integration/molding of the air box into the tank and shorter exhausts are my favorite recent innovations with sport bikes.

That being said, I dont' care much for the triple-piece, layered fairing on the latest R6 bikes. I think that the '06 GSXR edges it out in looks. The '07 ZX6R might be my favorite for the upcoming year's 600cc bikes.

And Yes... R1's have magma-hot looks. The maroon colored R1's are the one bike I think actually look good with carbon fiber accessories.

ok folk, upon further review, it is an 06, i thought it was an 07. he said it was NEW so i assumed it was an 07, but it was one of the last 06's they had there. and he said he lowered it 3 inches, but i dunno, he left the bike there for them to lower at after he bought it. im sure he plans to RIDE it, not just straightline, but he had to lower it because hes short, so yea

That is a bad ass bike. I want one, but I can't sell mine, and add another $5K just to have it. Might pick up a used one in 08

'06 had the yellow paint scheme, well it was the "Anniversary Edition" paint scheme, he probably bought it in '07
