love my r6. this thread has been done many times but the short version is like this; subframes weaker than hot butter, some year models the coils break down after getting hot. throttle is twitchy which f4i throttle tube helps with. does not need as much gearing as f4i, pulls really good. no frame problems to speak of. some people can break anything. do the air box mod just like any bike.

S is the one you want for stunting. the R is junk and a bitch to stunt

Besides trading down to having to ride a yamaha, then yes.

r6s is a great stunt bike, setup it up properly and you won't have any issues.
Main concerns: weak subframe & rectifier

that's all I gotta worry about?? shit sounds like its good to go then, I gives no fucks about keepin an extra rec or buyin good parts... the 15 to 20 more hp is why I want it and its lighter ... basically tired of this turd power on the f4i and its heavy as fuck
