Nice! Scribble some shit on the tank and claim it was owned by House of Pain to increase the value.

Hmmm....psssttt it's on the picture.... Their quality is "good" and the price is great...$550 shipped complete with (another) windshield and tank pad (to give away). There are other companies that claim better fit but they are about $300 more. I had to "tweek" mine to get them on but the plastic is high quality-80% of stock and the fit is maybe 70-85% stock. The graphics are top notch. My only complaint was the rush job they did on the clear coat (couple runs) which they refunded me $150 to cover.

Btw, if they have a kit for any other bike, they will happily do that design on yours for no extra charge.

I'm calling BS on the previous owner. Like mentioned no way Federov would own an R6.

Federov did play 2 years in Columbus.... so its not a far reach to say that he got the bike signed while he was still in town. But shit, owned it? Come on.....

It would be easy to find out with the VIN if he owned it or not, but shouldn't he have bought a red/white R6?

He was traded to Columbus in 05. Why would a superstar, who made up to $28,000,000 buy a 6 year old 600?

I don't know who this Federov guy is but I think its plausible for him to own a R6...why not?

I actually agree with this. Michael Jordan started riding on either a GSXR1000 or 600, I can't remember which. Regardless of how much money you have, you still can buy a sensible bike. Besides, at that time the R6 was the middle weight to beat.
