Sweet image and image editing Kurt.

I assume you're very happy you moved up to the R6?

I rode my buddy's 636 with a built motor and it felt slow as shit compared to my r6 with a full pipe and air filter and pciii

Thanks guys. I actually like the geometry of the R6 but the power of the 636. I'm down about 8 or so hp from the 636, but the bike turns in a hell of a lot faster.

Some of the hp will be made up after Steve dyno-tunes it, no? Or is that where you stand now, after the tune?

I find that odd

What year was your 636?

My buddy has an 04 with a supersport built motor and my R6 walks away from it on the straights

Your buddy's motor builder should be kicked in the nuts then. Considering stock for stock, a sub 110hp stock bike shouldn't walk away from a plus 120hp stock bike.

gearing? even so, a "built" motor usually means fuel managment, full system, cams, ported, more compression, balanced/blueprinted, race gas, etc. not sure on the supersport rulebook, but u got a pipe and a tune, on pump gas.

he should walk away from you, or walk to his builder and kick him in the nuts.
