Forks overhaul/service

[AnthonyF]

Man I see you riding your R6 all the time on North Druid Hills. I'm always in a car so I don't want to scare you. How many miles did you buy the R6 w/?? You've been doing some serious riding. I know you're a tech but I'd check out Marietta Motorsports. They are very knowledgeable. I have a friend that races R6s & R1s in AMA & WERA. He works on so many Yamahas he makes me very comfortable. He's a Yamaha nut. If you want his number PM me. He did most of my work when I had my R1.

I bought it with 12k or 14k and it's at 22k in 6 months. lol Def beep next time, I'll try not to get angry and give u the finger. lolol. I work off of Buford hwy right near N. Druid Hills.

Thanks man. I need to get 2 stands so I can start pulling the bike apart. I'll PM you about it in the future. +40

Huey at Marietta Motorsports
Rob at MSP Cycle
Traxxion Dynamics
GMD Computrack in Jasper

Any of them can do it for you.

I guess no1 wants me to do it myself? lol I appreciate the help fellas. I will give them each a call when I get them ready to be worked on.

its not that bad to do as long as your careful about putting things back together.

make sure to replace the fork seals while your in there. you can go thicker oil and change springs around, ask one of those ships listed and they can guide you in the right direction as far as spring rates and oil viscosity go. you will also need to clean EVERYTHING well and be careful measuring the amount of fluid you put back in. you cant just dump the oil out, youve gotta disassemble it all and clean.

An experienced tech can easily do this. get a r6 manual from the forums and it will help loads. good luck!

I've put engines together to specific clearances...that's a pain in the ass.

But thanks homey. I got 2 pitbull stands now and Going to take some1's advice in here and get some1 to do them for me. Getting new headlights, more LED's, and powder coating somethings.
