Ok guys
I had the R6 shock from devilsyam(Luke Gibson) sitting on my shelf for a few months just never had time to fit ,lazy I know as it comes with foolproof fitting instructions !
I had it fitted today while the bike was in getting other bits n bobs done
Ok took my normal ride route home from central London to Essex
OMG I have a new bike
1st , first chance of really testing it out is over Londons speed bumps ,it totally eliminates the bounce
2nd real test on quite a long gets tighter in the bend right hander ,normally with the stock shock I have to shut down a bit or risk running wide ! Not with the new shock I could actually wind the throttle in and could shift position in the bend
3rd is a bump on the A12 that I slow down for with the standard shock as the bike would normally bounce a bit and as its on a bend could get a bit uneven
R6 shock immediately corrected the bike
4th no more squat when you power in
5th bikes front end feels far more responsive (I have Hagon springs fitted)
6th I felt far more part of the bike and connected to the road
All done on patchy wet roads
Can't wait for the dry weather to really put the bike through its paces
IT IS A MUST FOR THE FZS 1000
Take a bow Mr. Gibson awesome mod thank you
