    bought the a new bike a week or 2 ago.
    managed to get a r6 at a resonable price.
    going to do a bit of work on it over the year, but starting with a new paint job, air filter, and spark plugs.
    also got to fit a rear brake light, sort out gear shifter, more than likely repack exhaust, plus a few other bits.

    had a spacer made for the steering damper to raise it up, so it sits level.
    bit a sneak view of the paint job.

    Did it come with V5? The cheap ones, as I found out, are usually stolen ones hence the steering damper not fitting well and poor paint.

    Yeah make sure any track bikes come with a V5, track bikes without a V5 are a massive no no. if not a V5 then a really good history.

    yea, got a v5 with it. all paper work. the previous owner had owned it from brand new.
    got all paperwork with it, from when he bought it brand new.
    from stripping the bike, i can tell it has been previously crashed, scraped front rim, slight scrape to underside of forks, and engine mount has been welded.
