I bought another road/race bike!!

**Motoracer** · 19th March 2006, 02:42

Before I fall asleep (literally) cuz I'm tired as f*k at this late hour, I just wanted to spread the good news.

The original plan was to settle down a bit and enjoy other things in life while still having a bike to keep me going. Hence I bought a practical and comfertable cheap road bike that was nice, the '92 CBR600F. It would have been the perfect commuter and also the odd road ride bike.

After having it for a few weeks, I came to the conclusion that my hooning days are far from over and I really need something that is a bit faster and better to thrash around in (that is also cappable of better wheelies!).

So next thing you know, I ended up selling my 1992 CBR600F and bought me a 2004 Yamaha YZF-R6 Nat level race bike with road gear!

It's got all the trick bits like the Ohlins rear shock, Ohlins front internals, Ohlins Steering Damper, Race pipe, Power comander, race and road fairings, Spare rims for wets plus heaps more!!

So at the moment, I could possibly make a come back into F2 or just have a good time riding it around on the road and just do some track days. I just don't know what I'll do with it yet.

P.S. The picture attached is not of my R6, but it's the same colour, year and model.
