Front Fork Suspension mods

[FZ6771]

I just got my FZ6 back from the shop. After a few track days I decided if I was going to keep doing this I needed to invest in the front suspension. I took the bike to a guy who really knows what he's doing so he set up the rear penske shock installed tapered steering bearings, race tech gold valve cartridge emulators, fork springs,including modifying the damperrods etc. total cost $660 . I took a test ride today but I really need a track day to see if it was worth it.

I'm more interested in any improvement in street riding. Keep us posted on that.

Yes it was, Roger Albert is the Man for suspension setup.

Man, I still can't get over that price, amazing. I need to get my R6 down there and have him go over my suspension to see if it needs to be serviced.

I'd think with the changes you made the chatter on some of the bumpy sections of the track will be much better. When I pu the R6 forks on my FZ6 it was night and day. The stock FZ6 fork simply bounced off of a bump, the R6 fork tracked right over it.
