Newbie Question about my R6

[jay75]

hi all,
Just a few questions to start.

I have just bought a std 99 Mint r6, I would like to make the rear end more modern,brake light,indicators etc.
Where do I get these from and does anyoone have any pics of a modded rear end.

Also whats the best oil to put in the bike.

Many thanks in advance

For trick bits have a look at ebay mate... search '99 R6' and trawl through the results.. For a tidy rear end have a look at the link below..

This link is to the Demon Tweeks site & is specific to your 99 plate bike..

Thats weird really as the Ebay rear cluster is being sold from Tweeks for £30 but if you go to the official site its there for £80?? Looks the same...

Oh and if your not planning on a pillion remove the rear pegs (you'll need to modify / buy another exhaust bracket) but just doing that really cleans up the back end

Powerbronze is an excellent source of stuff like that as well...

Thanks for all the advice guys

The under tray AND tail unit from a 01/02 together with the l.e.d rear light will fit strait onto your 99 bike

no mate - thats off an 03

original 01/02 ones dont come cheap, i had a small crack in mine so bought a second hand one on ebay for close to 120 notes. going rate as people like to convert their 99/00's.

check out this thred by bram:

This is what you need:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/R6-undertray-and-LED-rear-lights-/300449751831?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Motorcycle_Parts&hash=item45f4336317

(although that one does look to have a little chunk out of the bottom right section where the hanger goes...)

will probably sell mine with a small crack in once i swap mine over if you wanted one to repair, plastic weld on the inside would do it... (comes with lights and tail tidy)
