Yeah right bro. That RR won't come up in 3rd with that gearing. My f4i takes alot of work to pop up in 3rd gear and it's way more wheelie prone than your RR. The RR's don't wheelie that easily, they've got better balance.

LMAO, i strongly aree with you on that comment. All because i know i can kill a stock geared 03 600RR in 3rd gear on the interstate all day and all night. So i know that with -1 down, it'll be a little easier to get it up because of the mid-range it has.......That speedy stuff is nuts easy. Slowing it down in the lot is where the hard chit is at......=-)

yeah a 600RR can stock wheelie up to 5th gear. (I dont remember seeing anyone doing 6th gear on a 600).
rsracer, i think your information is alittle off man but it happens.

(-1 to the front is like adding +3 to the back, which makes it more effective of wheelieing) plus hearing from my friends, the 600RR has a sick midrange powerband.

That RR won't come up in 3rd with that gearing.

I have personally done 4th gear, stock gearing, on a 05 600 RR. So i guess i would have to say you are wrong.

Haha, most of you boys are all talk. I know you didn't get a stock rr up in 4th. Unless you hit a little downhill bump and dumped the clutch. I'm not saying the RR doesn't have plenty of power for it, i'm saying it doesn't wheelie as easy as most thing. 3rd gear is real tough on an RR. You gotta be at about 6k which in 3rd and it just doesn't snap up that easily.
