R6 shock on the way  :D

I've donne a little rebuild of my front brake calipers!
Much better braking feel now... before it was like a on/off switch.

Well, i like to keep things organized.
Because... when you lose something you know that your bike is "broken" then you got to buy parts most of the times at the Yamaha Stealership and that's a very bad day for us  :b

That's a job that i recommend to do... but you need to be patient or give it to someone else to do  ;)

Today was time to do the Exup maintenance and grease the shift linkage.

Next time i hope it will be oil change with filter, air filter, fork oil, fuel filter.

Brake fluid already done front and rear.

Front brake pads what do you recommend guys?
