Not being funny here, but the reason the others are telling you to check your plugs, is because thats a way of seeing if the bike is running too lean, or too rich etc! It doesn't matter one bit that you have new plugs, If the bike isn't tuned correctly you'll have problems.

Restrictors on this type of bike restrict total gasflow volume...

Therefor I expect when they was fitted...no other adjustment took place...

Good advice on seeing if it's coked up...also check the plugs...chances are it's running too lean...espically with the K&N Filter.

If you got a digital temp gauge...if it goes above 100 when sitting in traffic your running too lean for sure!

R6's are a bit tricky...as 600cc inline-4 engines have relatvely small gasflow than say a V-Twin or inline-4 750/1000...so I think if it doesn't turn out to be something obvious...you really then need to turn to professional help to get it spot on.

A useful tool...if your good at being hands on with the bike is a colourtune kit...tells you alot about whats going on inside the engine

ok sorted out the oil light, checked my plugs an they are nice and clean....my tem rises to about 92 when the bikes been perched at some traffic lights, but still its going in for a tune on tuesday. hope it wont b too much.

cheers for all the help guys
