hi all

im dale from kuranda, near cairns
im currently riding a red and black 2002 r6, it's in the shop at the moment i went for a bit of a slide, whoops. im looking at getting some chrome wheels for it but i want to put some 5 spokers on it from a later model has anyone done this before, what do i need diferent callipers etc?

are there any people on here from around cairns as im always keen to go for a ride when im home from work, none of my mates ride for some reason, dunno whats wrong with them lol. anyway hit me up if anyones keen for a ride.
