Hi guys,
I intend to try the fork bolts tomorrow. Tyre pressure wise 42 rear is recommended for rider and passenger while 39 was for solo....it is in my Yamaha service manual anyway. The front pressure is my preference but again manual states 36. I was running these pressures before in metzlers and also Dunlop qualifiers with no issues although I fully accept the tyres are different now as is the suspension. Headstock and all other usual suspect bearings are fine. It's the standard r6 shock conversion in which case the rear Spring should be stiffer than the standard one. Dog ones were done as per Devilsyam's genius. I have one up on the high speed damping but no difference as yet. I will as I say try the bolts and all standard set up again tomorrow and see how we go. Thanks for the suggestions everyone.
