FZ6 Cup Panel Group Buy Interest?

mattcosta7 · Sep 29, 2008

I'm trying to gauge interest in the Racers Edge FZ6 Cup race plastics.

I think they're pretty awesome looking. Overall pieces are (price in USD)
Front Cowl-165.84
Screen-74.63
Ductail-207.3
Ductail Mount-82.92
Seat Pad-41.46

Shipping for a set is about 373usd, if you buy it solo.

From what I have gathered so far, it will require modifications to the fairing stay, although I have yet to hear exactly what that entails. You may need clip ons to clear at full lock, but you may not as well.

I've also inquired about the steering damper and whether the modified bracket can be purchased as well.

I'm waiting to hear back as to whether or not they would be interested in group pricing or not though. Hopefully they are.

I'ld like to get a feel for the interest level in these. Please let me know if you'ld be interested in purchasing these, so I can give an accurate idea of how large a group buy this can be, so that I can get an accurate price quote from racersedge

Man, i am in Australia, and have wanted to buy performance bits from an FZ6 cup bike, and have been told that we (the public) cant buy the parts that are sold to the FZ6 Cup racers in Australia. Well not GYTR stuff anyway

My Yamaha shop has tried to buy the GYTR exhaust pipe....NO.

But admit i have not tried for the body panels, as i am not interested, even if the exhaust, seat set up lools awesome, as doers the front fairing, which i think is pretty much an old FZ1 screen mold at least?

I would like the steering damper and mount they use on the FZ6 cup bikes.

Anyway, you can take this post as interest in the Steering Damper, and maybe reasets, but i think i have just sourced them through valtermoto, who are happy to sell them to me.

Definitely no way I know of to get the GYTR pipe. I've asked, but nothing. Also, as for the damper, it's Ohlins, and the only way to get Ohlins stuff is to buy from a dealer. There is almost no markup, they won't do gb pricing, I tried! With the exchange rate as it sits, I'm gonna be picking up this set soon, I figure 650 shipped for race plastics isn't that bad.

The valtermoto set does look great on the bike. Much better deal I think, compared to the Rizoma $600 set.

As for dampers, the only options are going to the Ohlins or the Matris Me or M4R, either way you're stuck in the 600 dollar range. I'll be saving up for one of them this winter, as well as the Ohlin's shock and racetech springs/15wt oil/valve emulators

Man That looks sick!!!! I would love to have that tail end. But as for the front I am going with more of the street fighter look.

pepa · Nov 7, 2008

i also love this tail, but i think in austria it isn't allowed to drive this tail without a taillight

Hey Pepa, welcome! We're not going to let you off that easy, post up a photo or two of your bike and a little bit about you on the new member section. :welcome: Und Tschus!

pepa · Nov 7, 2008

thirty_too · Nov 7, 2008

anyone know if it is possible to add a taillight setup into the race style rear end? also the new seat looks wider, does anyone know how it rides?

Chris · Nov 7, 2008

Question.. How can those clip-ons be clearing the tank?

MarinaFazer · Nov 7, 2008

the seat isn't a seat. It's one of those really thin grippy things for race bikes...have fun commuting on it LOL
I don't like the single pipe out the back...I like the twin pipes.
The rear sets look awesome!
How come the levers look stock?

just my 2c...i could go on but yea...it look sweet, but it wouldn't be practical on the street unless you took it to the track a lot.

That link isn't working for me.

Ditto to that! Very interested as i am planning on building an fz6 track bike.

mattcosta7 · Nov 21, 2008

it never happened, since there was so little interest. The cost gets alittle excessive for plastics, considering you pay 400USD in shipping alone!

samo · Nov 21, 2008

that's so lame! the tail section on these bikes screams beginner........
