As we all know, the 2006 R6 is pretty weak until you get to at least 9K RPMS. Going down a tooth gets the rpm's up a lot faster than stock gearing. Which is where they have to be in order to generate torque. So to answer your question... Yes.
Yes you will loose some top end speed out of the deal, but honestly I can't say I have ever been close to the top end speed possible out of todays sportbikes. I left the rear gearing stock and the improvement is very noticable without making a wheelie machine.
