I'm in the process of getting parts together for a 2011 R6. I've picked up a bunch of useful information on this site and elsewhere - cheers Marshy for going over a couple of parts lists. There are a few areas I'm not sure exactly which direction to go in though.

I'm going to put some Race Tech gold valves for compression and rebound in the forks. I'm just not sure whether to get the regular or the high frequency response (HFR) valves for rebound?

I'm looking at getting a mid pipe and slip on but again I'm not sure which pipe and end can are the way to go?

And lastly, I've only ridden on the road before so I will no doubt be slooooowwww and am wondering which tyres would be good for a first timer?

Thanks for tolerating my ignorance! I probably should've listened when everyone told me not to start from scratch. My wallet would've definitely appreciated it. Haha. Sometimes you've got to stick your hand in the fire though....
