Hi Folks
« on: 27 February 2013, 09:36:40 pm »
Hi everyone,


My name is David. I am the very proud owner of a 2001 Gen1 1000.
Very very happy with it. Wanna do the r6 shock thing! Will a 2010 r6 shock fit? Been offered one by a friend.


Good to be here.  :D

Hey,
 
Welcome to the mad house! Get some pics up boyo!

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.

Good morning David & welcome
 
until you find your way around the forum then here's a link below to the R6 shock mod on the FZS1000 forum,
 
from what i've gained from peeking over the fence from the far better FZS600 garden then 'Devilsyam' is the resident expert on this mod, i do believe i've seen that not all r6 shocks work, many have bought the wrong ones.there seems to be page upon page about the subject to keep you busy but you'll need to scroll back over the history of the conversations, plus i think if you look at the topics on the FZS1000 forum, someone posted up a link very recently which answers all of the usual questions about the bike, like a quick cheat sheet.
 
anyway here's the link to the R6 thing:-
