it's weird they have two r6's this year


suck sooo much that our 1.5 only has a potential of like 141 whp yet a .6 liter can make 133

 

Yea, the 06 is ridiculous...I like the short Moto GP styled exhaust. I thought the 15,500 RPM redline on my 05 R6 was nuts, this year is just unreal.

 

the redline on the 06 R6 is at 20,000

my first post was a video of a guy riding the R6 at a track
