Hey Guys!

Sold my 08 in december due to financial problems Sad but now i just got a 00 R6! i need a few things, i wanted to get a undertray but would it fit straight on? and i can't seem to find anyone who sells exhaust for that model! it's driving me mad!

The guy who had the bike before was a 50 yr old and its standard! main priority is to get a exhaust, maybe blueflame? or any one who can recommend one?

Oh and final thing a tail tidy!!!

Would really appreciate your help

The carbed R6's respond very well to a akrapovic slip on Wink

Termi's cost about the same. I found that cheap cans can have a adverse affect causing flats spots in the rev range if you don't have em jetted to suit. I found the Akrapovic slips straight on without the need to re jet and made the bike feel very good. Microns are good , but I would avoid carbon can co. An Art can caused me trouble. I know some peeps will disagree with me on this, though.
You should be able to pick up a decent used akrapovic for around £150 on eBay.

Could be difficult to find a Micron new as they had bigger financial problems than you. Laughing Possibly find a 2nd hand in good nick... maybe.

Agree with fastfox, stick with a decent brand,
Akro or Termi & Arrow all make nice smooth power
