  1. im down to go for sure im off thursdays
  2. ...im jealous now i want to go :-( wish you guys the best and have a safe trip!!
  3. any updates, twizted? reason i ask is casue my bike may be on its way to havbing similiar problems..ur lucky tho least you have a warranty,,
  4. ouch i have near min coverage with progressive on the r6 it was 103 bucks for the whole year. but i am 26 not a single ticket or accident
  5. thanks man for the info. as far as i know the bike sat at the dealership for 4-6 months, all the fluid levels seem fine bike doesnt over heat, again only smokes at full throttle gonna do a thorough check over saturday when i get her on stands.
  6. awsome look forward to it be workin on her saturday in the afternoon making sure no damage if i continue riding after the fiasco of the past 2 days ive had
  7. agree that was a one time thing and know not to do that and as for getting on it 12-14k shifts when the shift light hits isnt raggin it redline is 16-17kish i dont know when i piped it i didnt hold it there in place jst hard pull anyway tho i agree like i stated tho we arent tearing it all apart checking the air box gonna do what rueben from 35motorsports suggested by taking the lowers off and cleaning it oil change and then rideing it around and seeing if it leaks still. and as for the 12-14k shifts i just started doin that when i first got her i shifted 8-9k range and my buddies said that that bike was not meant to be baby shifted like that but ur right redlining it prob is best either
  8. lol nice all i got back in 06 was a piece of paper lol
  9. damn man wel least ur in ur permit is good for 6 months and if you need to you can retake once u take that msf ur good to go my bro in the works on doing that to he brough the book home today
  10. tell me bout it mong, i feel bad now for referring you to them it was after the fact that we got our bikes that the place is complete shit...atleast you have a warranty lol
  11. so i just got off the phone with rueben at 35motorsports. god i hope its not the head gasket $1500 if it is. but he gave me some great tips, liek take the lowers off clean the crap out fo the motor with simple green do an oil change and then ride it if its then still leaking obviously problem he didnt seem to be to concerned with the smoke more as to the oil spots (which could also be chain lube finally making its way down to leak) also said that becasue a dipstick reasds bone dry doesnt mean there is no oil in it the bike has a low lvl oil light for a reason said there prob 2 quarts till it shows on the dip stick. lol....so as much great advice he gave hope i dont have to make that $1500 dollar purchase lol
  12. yeah and i dont have $$.. anyway update tho...go figure right after we talk about it there is a little oil spot in the garage in the rear of the bike can see where it is coming from thought maybe oil in the exhaust and its leaking through there, only think maybe the oil drain plug is loose? ill find out saturday when i take it over and put it on stands. some people i have talked to suggested that a dealership would go as low as to drain the oil real low and keep the drain plug loose so i would have to take it back there for service, as much as i find this not really believeable i wouldnt put it past them never know.. but on the oil leak i can not find anywhere where the oil is coming from the rear inner fairing is a lil moist but other than that wo knows.
  13. it runs perfectly fine, pulls hard, no odd noise's except for the "yamaha tick" idles strong no engine lights on temp stays steady fans kick on when needed had 4 people look at it from a glance and everyone is befundled about it.. still dont know how it lost 3-4 quarts oil in three rides unless when i had it at middle town for that week they drained it but why they would do that i have no idea
  14. thanks man ill give him a ring tomorrow, and no im here in cincy west chester is north near fairfield and hamilton. so yeah chris and his dad if it wasnt for them then i dont know what id do sometimes lol. but yeah im gonna call this guy at 35 motorsports thanks a ton..
  15. none just like when you buy a car without a warranty you sign stating you know its "as is" the dealership is not responsible for anything once you drive it off the lot
  16. hmm might look into this thanks for the tip sam. like i said all we are doing is looking at the air filter. but this lemon law you refer to that is on new bikes this was a used bike with 7k miles on it...unless its different with bikes.
  17. indeed man def indeed and then the storm came out of no where :-(
  18. sadly man its "as is" they dont give two shits about me or that bike, wrillo- no there is no oil that i can see now at the bottom of the fairing in the rear there was what looked like grime and what not but more from the rd but there was a lil oil in it, but like i said there are no leak spots anywhere in my garage or where ever i park it...
  19. where is 35 motorcports located, i will say this the service manager at cycle specialties said that without the bike smoking like a freight train and it doesnt only at high rpms dont know if it did it today as i had no one following me but it is unheard of for 3 or whatever quarts of oil was in bike just dissapears without leaking in the garage or anywhere, and when i mean tear it apart were just gonna look at the air box and see if oil was spewed thru there..but yeah does this 35 motorsports guy have a site? is he local? and the mechanical buddies are chris and his dad :-P chris told me some stories about you to at the track (if this si the same chris we are talking about)
  20. your not the only one mako read my thread but who knew what happened early when i talked to you on the phone... so how ur buddy doin with his bike ?
  21. Wow guys I really think ive must have gotten the only 06 R6 with massive amounts of problems. Im begining to think my luck with this bike or bikes in general is starting to run out. Im about to change my name to "badluckdave". So as you all know my "awsome" exp with Middletown Cycle (huge exageration) I finally get the bike back Tuesday and am happy till last night if you read my "smoke" thread. So hopin for the best I made sure bike was ready to ride today and went out to hopefully meet up with some ohio riders. Get to chipotle eat then back on the road. Heading to cycle specialties (shipps) on rt 4 and went to downshift and hmm wait my shifter dissapeared. Yep you head it right shifter came unbolted and was just hanging there by the rod... thank god i was only goin 25 and was right next to a gas station and down the rd from cycle specialties. call my bro and he takes me to cycle specialties now I will give MAD props to cycle specialtites not only did they tow my bike back to the shop they rigged a "temp" fix till the part comes in to fix it properly. and they also checked my oil which in a matter 3 days or so of riding went from full fresh change to bone dry...so that leads me to belive that i am leaking somewhere this saturday some local friends of mine are gonna take the bike apart ourselves as cycle specialties is booked for the season. so what you think guys did i get the worst built 06 R6 out there? cause i have done nothing but baby this bike and maybe barely put 50 miles on her since i drove her off the lot. and as for middletown cycle i called them all they did was put me on hold for 10 min so i hung up im done with them they know they sold me a fucked up bike!!
  22. i will find out man, wait till you read my next topic...
