Hi first of all iam new here and have bought myself an 2009 R6. have come from litre bikes but love the zippyness of the 600.
SOOoooo iam looking to ramp up my R6. but was wondering a few things.
i have a gytr slip on pipe and aftermarket air filter and have dropped a tooth i the front sprocket. iam now looking at  putting on a power commander 5 as u can get good power for money out of them and had them on all my other bikes, kind of a must. but was wondering also weather it was worth the horseppower to put on extractors and if so what brand and where to buy in Australia.
i have also come across some things called smog block offs but am unaware of their purpose??
also i have heard of the 520 conversion in sprockets and may go that way when im due to change chain and sprocket but at the moment it revs enough just dropping the tooth off the front sprocket.
if anyone could guide me in the best direction to head with my money that would be appreciated
