I am sure I will..... I am quite a regular at track days/Competitions in the car and love that apart from it being a little hard on the tyres. ( $1600 for 4!)

Atleast your 6R will only be around $600 for a new set!
Seriously though your tyres should last more than a couple track days.
My current tyres have done 4 track days and around 10K km's,
and they are only Dunlop Roadsmart II's which I picked up for $230 each fitted.
If you want to go faster on the track, you can always find guys selling used track tyres (some guys sell them in Adelaide for $40- $80 front/ rear)
Then you can keep your sport/ tourer tyres for the road and get something stickier for the track

Think I need my P's first lol
Unfortunately, I know that to be true. But it's mostly with used parts, because they aren't as abundant. New parts are not that much higher than others.
That is just a sweet looking bike, if its anything like my nephews street triple I bet it hauls *** too. I really would like to look into one but its another lay on the tank design I don't think my back can handle. Here is a picture of that street triple and my fz6r.

yeah, its a tiny bit more lean than the fz6r but that's probably because I bought bar risers for my fz6r. Its a blast to ride. It hauls ***, seems a lot faster than ours for only 75cc difference. its just naked and looks like bug eyes from the front though

let us know how it compares to the fz and your traitorous gixr
we need a bike exchange thread going lol. Since half the people on the forum don't have an FZ6R. Meet up with a fellow forum member and try each others bikes out. Anyone in socal got a Daytona or a fz1 they want to let me ride for a few minutes?I certainly will.
I got a nice Suzuki boulevard 650 someone can try!
Im not too bad. I wont let any joe ride it but for examples my brother has ridden it, I would let him ride or drive anything I own as he can replace it lol and I have driven anything he owns. I ride his ninja and can am and when he used to live in Hawaii i would arrive, grab the keys to his M3 and say your stuck with the wifes mini van for a week! I have also let my nephew ride it, he has the street triple and he hasn't crashed that yet so... In fact when all 3 of us go we like to take a turn on each bike. I let my next door neighbor ride it, we were going to go for a ride and his crappy Harley had a problem so I let him take my cruiser then I switched with him halfway, thought maybe I could turn him to the light side of the force! He has been riding like 15 years though.
