Hi I recently purchased an R6 that had been stood for a few years, it runs ok but I get a vibration through the bars that makes my hands go numb . I have been googling it and some say the carbs may need balancing but I think I will need to clean the carbs first any ideas, or am I barking up the wrong tree ? Cheers

Possibly your front wheel needs balanced.
What happens when you hold the bars loosely near to the point of letting go of the bars ?

Try the above at about 30-40 mph coming off the throttle

Sounds like front wheel needs balanced.
Get the both wheels done, You'll be amazed how it helps
