Second set for track days. If I can't find any between now and then I'll be going naked for my day.

You'll need plastics to fit an 05-06 ZX6R or ZX6RR. I recommend Attack Performance. I had those on my 05 ZX6R race bike and they held up well. DO NOT get Hotbodies unless you like throwing money in a trash can and then burning it.

SharkSkinz, Attack, and Catalyst seem to be the nicest sets out there. Armour Bodies don't seem too bad, but I have no personal experience with them.

Throwing money away? I'd say that extra $245+ isn't worth it for an occasional track day. That's a new set of tires.

The first time you crash and your body work is fucked, I'd say it's worth it.

I've seen pics, and you don't need body work, kell!

That'd be a valid argument if the bodywork didn't explode just from getting up to speed on your first outing. This happened to me with two sets of hotbodies at the first WERA round at Fontana this year. The front fairing mounting tabs busted, causing the lower to sag and rub my front tire under braking, which superheated the tire and nearly made me crash. The front fender ripped off on the front straight and put a nice dent in my radiator.

I'll pay the extra $245.

Fair enough.
