nice bikes!  I really like the 2006 R6S.  Its a good package for the price... basically a 2005/6 power plant in a 2001/2 suspension.   adjustable suspension and FI are two of the most important things to me these days.   

Personally, I'm partial to the red color scheme.

Nice x 2!

I've got a deposit down at the dealer now while they find me a V-strom with ABS...

I saw a Yamaha Warrior the other day, and I instantly loved the bike. It had some aftermarket pipes they were flat black with a cool bend.  The R6s is awesome too.  :cheers:

Congrats!

Good choice on the R6s instead of the R6.  You'll LOVE it.  I certainly love my R6.

First mod...   Get a freakin fender elim kit. :laugh:

Hush, RV.   That warrior is cooler than the mean steak. 

Ha ha!!!

Just kidding. 

Those are both really cool bikes.  Good choice!!   Those 600's have a lot of steam man!  Fast fast fast.

No, I think you're right...  But, the meany is more comfortable and half the price. :dunno_white:  If I could afford whatever bike I wanted, I'd be on a Victory.   :icon_razz:

Aside from ergonomics and the price , what's the main differences in the R6 vs the R6s ... just cleaned up the last little bad spot on my credit , so i've been doing some serious shopping around finally . The local dealer is offering me a sweet deal on a YZF600R though ... i'm soooo confused hehe  :bowdown:

And i'm really really REALLY not a cruiser guy , but that Warrior is pretty sweet

From what i understand the R6S is a 2002 to 2005 R6. The front forks were changed as well as the radial front brakes removed.The front forks are still  fully adjustable as well the rear shock. I went in to buy a FZ6 but got the R6S .If your looking for a bike with a good price check out the yamaha FZ6.Check out this video.I am not trying to promote yamaha but its another nakid alternative to the SV 650 ftp://http://www.yamaha-motor.com/sport/products/modelvideo/273/303/0/video.aspx
