okay i purchased this bike it is a 99 600s.... and lately i just got warm around here and i started riding with my friends, one has an R6 and the other has a GSX i believe.... anyone.. i really dont liek that fact that we will be riding for a while, stop and go into a store or somewhere to eat and when we come back out i have to wait for my bike to warm up but choking it and all... is there any way i can get rid of this problem or do i just have to live with it
My normal starting procedure from cold is to pull the choke and start and let it run for a short time and shut the choke off and it runs fine... if there is something wrong with that please tell me now so i can change my habits...

The 600's seem to be more cold blooded than the 1200's. A Holeshot Stage I jet kit will do wonders to the cold-bloodedness.

Ivan's jet kits are also pretty popular, but he doesn't make on for the '99 and earlier B6, only the '00-up.

Do you know if the 1G B6 kit can be bought in the UK? Or does Holeshot ship to the UK?

I've felt your pain, before I put the Holeshot kit on the bike was miserable.  You could ride for hours and if the thing sat for 15 min for more it was choke and warm up time.  The holeshot kit took care of the problem.  I'm sure Dale ships world wide and the UK is easy.  I have a relative who ships parts and UK is just as fast as sending across the country.  South Africa is the worst, sometimes a couple weeks.

Yes, Holeshot will ship anywhere on the planet.
