Top speed on a r6 in 1st gear

01 mille (not the R) in the Torque colours, acropovic titanium can and a tinted screen. thats about it for mods

 

sounds lush fella

 

I've never touched a gearbox. Never even bothered reading about them.
Just when I heard primary and secondary thought that it changed between the two.

 

Sort of makes sence to me. Gonna have a read up me thinks.

 

do you own one?

have you tryed your self?

i advise you research before attempting to correct people

isnt he also like 19 and very likely not allowed to test ride the bikes?

well i guess hes to shook to pull the throttle all the way back or all these mags and sites are telling porkies arc: :wtf: :nerd:

 

172mph CLAIMED.

It's true it's faster than the other 600's of this year.

and your looking in the high 160's on the road.

Maybe 167 true speed, something like that.

 

just because hes 19 wouldnt make a differnce

my mates 18 and he can drive upto a 6.5 litre or somthing and thats at mercadies

 

big LOL

new R1's look dirt.....

and who cares bout the top speed anyways lol, still be winging past ALL cars

 

:msn1: a car isn't the same as a bike. tell your 18 year old friend to go in to a bike dealership and try get a test ride on any sports 600 and see if he gets a go.

:rtfm: every site and mag says "genuine 172.34" when tested with the same rider in the same conditions on a race track.

are you meaning to tell me they are all wrong because you found out the true speed on a uk road!?

 

well that's bullshit,
company insurance doesn't allow you to drive anything over a 220cdi (or might be a 270cdi) ON THE ROAD untill your over 21,
he's telling you porkies


but yer im sure and r6 will pull that in first, my sv will do over an indicated 50mph and it aint even remotely designed to pull high revs

 

Mate is 17 works for ford, and ive been out in a 2.5L V6 mondeo with him, his company obviously dont give a shit for the rules......

but still 1st gear is overated guys, i love 3rd. specially on a crosser, rarely use another gear as much as 3rd on the track

 

2nd and 3rd FTW alex! unk: :beer:

 

who needs insurance these days ????

and 3rd is best in my car too lol

 

well hes picked me up more than 10 times in cars over 3 litre even in a m3 they got in as a part ex. so maybe ur manager is just strict or his is layed back as hell lol

 

lol my manager,
its Mercedes UK set insurance, better hope he doesn't crash them
