Well I've always wanted a motorcycle and I was finally able to get one on the 25th of this month. Sold the celi for the bike but I think it is well worth it. Anyways it’s a 06 Yamaha R6 and it is a blast. Don't really have many pics of it yet but here is one my buddy took the other day while I was riding and vid of my ricer fly by haha.





Just wanted to say thanks for all the good info that is on this site. When I first had my car I had no idea what you could do to a 6th gen celica then I found this website and read all the how-to's and what not and my knowledge of cars grew. Thanks again for helping me mod my car.

cool. whats your dd?

Sweet man, Congrats on the new purchase. Now that you learned so much with cars, you can go and do what you did with your celica, to the bike (Minus the wing, lambo doors, body kit, etc )

nice, i've always wanted a bike. too bad you had to sell your car though. that was one nice celi.

dd? googled it and came up with nothing haha

Thanks, yea I already got my mods list waiting for me. Now it is time to come up with some more money some how.

Thanks for the nice comments but man a bike is awesome. So fun having a engine that will rev up to 15k

WOW who knew that a bike could have as much horsepower as my car lol

daily driver lol

Its crazy that the R6 has about as power as my celi did and the R1's I think have something like 140rwhp.

But my daily driver is a 91 Corolla that I got from my grandma for free

lol btw nice bike. BRO i was wandering how you kept your car looking so good. For example no chip of paint in the front or anything like that lol. I need to get a daily CHEAp DAily driver and keep my celi as a weekend car.

welcome to the club, bro.

it's great having something on two wheels that will destroy most any car in the straights & twisties.

some advice for you, if you're new to bikes. i am too, however, i'm fortunate enough to know a bunch of circuit/drag types :

invest in some frame sliders, fairings arent cheap.
careful on the clutchless upshifting. it will wear out the dogbox. don't clutchless from 1st to 2nd, but the rest of em are cool to upshift w/o the clutch.
take an MSF course. i haven't done this yet, because they're notoriously expensive in Illinois.
get some boots, your ankles are exposed and usually get thrashed if you fall.
buy some bike stands, you can get some real cheap ones at http://www.checkeredflagmotorsports.net/standsnewpage.html $99 for a set!

have fun. be safe, and don't get pulled over
