Very nice Yamaha R6 for sale, polished frame, ect

I really really REALLY hate to do this, but insurance is KILLING me(state farm can lick my left one! ) So Ive got to get rid of the bike. Not what I want to do, but what I have to do. Heres the lowdown.

2003 Yamaha YZF-R6, Just about to turn over 10k miles
Limited edition black with red flames
All decals removed
fully polished frame/swingarm/wheel lips
BRAND NEW 120/70 and 180/50 Metzler Sportech M1 tires
Euro running lights/turn signals
CUSTOM made flushmount turn signals, VERY good looking
Intergrated blinkers in LED tail lights (VERY trick setup, one of the neatest parts of the bike)
Silverstar headlights
Tinted Double Bubble windscreen
Frame sliders
Heavy bar ends
Devil Carbon fiber high mount exhaust
Custom undertail fender eleminator
GP Reverse shift rod (1 up, 5 down)

This bike is absolutley STUNNING! No matter where I go or who looks at the bike, I get nothing but stares and complements. This bike is truely nice. There are only 2 flaws on this whole bike. A SMALL scuff on the lower right fairing, that you cant see unless you are on the ground under the bike looking for it. The other is on the tail fairing right under the seat lock, theres a scratch that goes down the side, and where it meets the undertail section is cracked around the push pin. Hardly noticeable, and easily fixed. Pictures just dont do it justice at all. I bought it back in Febuary, and I am the 3rd owner of the bike. Its already had Yamaha ignition coil recall done on it last year. The bike has been stored indoors all its life. Its been well taken care of and ridden easy. I have done a total of 2 wheelies on the bike (just not my thing) and really havent ridden it hard at all. I just enjoy the ride! It gets about 130-140 miles to a tank so its GREAT for the high gas prices of today. The deal is, when I was looking at getting the bike, shopping for insurance, I was quoted a GREAT price by State Farm, later finding out after I got the bike, that they would not pick up insurance on me due to ONE ticket that was still less than a year old. So instead of 99 bucks a month, I ended up getting the next cheapest deal, 160 bucks a month! Id rather someone else enjoy the bike than me scrape by every week just to pay for it , so Im selling it, and my 4 wheeler, to get a small truck and get started on building the motor for my Formula. I loose a great looking bike, but someone else gains.

I am asking $6700 for the bike. I will include a few extras as well.

New Icon Mainframe Helmet, black with red flames, size M, with smoke and clear screen
Stock exhaust, which has been polished
Stock bar ends
Stock shift rod
Yamaha bike cover

If you are interested post here or email me at elkyracer@aol.com

Thanks for looking
Kyle

i would see about moving the loan to another bank. call up alamo cycle they will tell you motocycle friendly banks.
I know household lending doesnt require it on -8k

and if you would come down on the price consider it sold

I just hate paying full retail on a bike. ill pay between half of trade in and retail feel free to email me

once again nice bike
