welcome another rider in my area thats killer. Where you at I live about 3 minutes from the mall

I live at the intersection of research and Patterson by the Marions pizza of beavrcreek.

i gonna get either an R6, ZX6, XB9R, or GSX-R 600 (in order of want) just depends on prices that i find, looking to spend no more than 4300.

sorry for the double post i'm new to the whole forum thing don't really know how to work it yet.

love that you want an R6 first, but at that price its going to be hard to find a good FI one. do what i should have done and saved a little bit more for a decent second gen and up R6, or at least a bike with FI.

carbs, albeit classic and totally awesome, are a bitch. somewhat similar to girls.

i definitely want FI but i'll go carb if i can't find FI for my price, i want this bike to last me all through college (the next three+ years) without me itching for an upgrade.

dont get me wrong, carbs will last. its just a PITA when you see all the guys getting their engine dyno tuned right then and there and go home with a tuned bike, where you have to go home, dig into the carbs, figure out which jet to change and decide between a 158 or a 160 or the many other choices, go back and try again...

it is possible also to convert a first gen R6 carb'd bike to FI for around 200-700 dollars depending on what kind of deals you get, also may be possible on other bikes, but for sure 99-02 R6's. Someone did it on the R6 board im on, going to be my next winter project.
