R6 shock Mod fazer 1000

[Gray fox]

Thanks for the advice, just drilled the top bush no problem. Now i want it to stop raining so i can go for a test ride. Should work well with the R1 forks.

[devilsyam]

so how did it go dont keep us waiting lol

Sunshine at last, test rode it and am well pleased with the shock mod, just set the sag at 20mm, 10 clicks out on the rebound, 3 turns out on the high speed compression, 20 clicks out on the low speed. Ride height set to standard with shorter dog bones, it's useful working at an engineering company! Result after 2 years of fiddling with the handling, it's finally how i want it. A new pair of 021s are the icing on the cake. The shock mod is a great budget answer to rear end problems, many thanks to devilsyam for doing the research. Only problem now is i have ground the blobs off the footrests 

[devilsyam]

lol glad you like it

no more currently in stock will post up if that changes, new bikes not due at race teams just yet unless they total one lol

[Jez]

Hooray. I am in.

Yuku did not let me know of redirection so I used Luke's redirection service lol.

Thanks for this Luke. But thanks even more for the shock. I know I have said this in email but I wanted to say in public that the R6 shock has completely ironed out the sagging under power which was getting on me tets.

I would add to Luke's fitting instructions that removal of the top shock bolt is made muuuuuuch easier by the use of a 14mm socket on a long extension and a universal joint knuckle. Do not use a socket without the U.J as it will slip.

Easy. Thanks again, Luke.

Funny i tried that with the 1/2 set i have here and couln't get the angle rite to get the socket on cleanly hence the spanner was used perhaps with a 3/8 or 1/4 drive set the smaller dia tool will allow better access

I found with that bolt it was easier to hold the nut with a spanner and get someone to undo the other side with the ratchet, much better access and had no problems.
Not recommended for all of them though, think one of the bolts has a really shallow head...

[devilsyam]

funny the top bolt is captive on one side (ie wont turn when undoing nut)

Hi Devilsyam just joined the site. I have just traded up from a 600fazer to a very clean 03 1000 gen1with23000 miles. The shock is on the highest preload and is not great so its time to change it . Can you get in touch with me regarding  buying r6 shock upgrade. I live in Ireland.
Regards Rafer
