I was bored so I just Photoshop'd an 08 R6-R to how I'd like it to be.
Excuse the poor job -- I proper rushed it and I only wanted a rough idea.
Obviously I can't Photoshop the performance mods in, but this is basically how I'd like it to look. I just wanna do the same as I did to my current R6 to a newer R6...
I'd change the exhaust too -- I'd like just a slash cut exit pipe. I may also remove the mirrors and add R&G fork and swing arm sliders. The rear indicators would be built into the rear lights.

Basically just powder coating the wheels white with new tyres, and adding Pazzo's and Gilles. Flash front indicators, and Oxford bar ends...
What do you think?

Mine will just be a tiny slash-cut -- it'll look like this:

that is a lovely bike mate but before you buy one make sure you test ride a cbr600 rr, i have riden both and find that the cbr feels lighter and turns much quicker and the riding position is alot better personaly. both very nice bikes though

Cheers for the advice but I'm an R6 boy... I've had 2-3 R6s and ridden many and they're the bike for me. I'm just not keen on the CBR and the only other IL4 I'd have is a K6+ Gixxer.

I think the gold wheels look better, id just get them done a brighter gold to match the forks. With the bellypan badge done in white though.

like the scheme xa0s, your slash cut looks like my taylor-made system I have on my bike.
