FZ6R: R6 Rear-Set Custom Controls 

Thank you, Sir! 🙏

I agree.. it’s almost a more “professional” look to the assembly. Very clean.

Once I confirm function via test ride, maybe.. I’m kind of apprehensive about making it semi-permanent like that, especially having not felt it on the track yet.

I would loctite it as well. Hate to miss a session because you are having to retighten it down. Blue is not permanent.

@@tylerelliott6080 Roger that brudda, fair point!

I suppose at this point the best I could do is place the factory rearsets back into position as a sort of mock-up for comparison? Maybe throw up some side by side photos of some stock Yamaha imagery and the R6 rearset orientation?

Here you go, and remember you can find all of my tutorials in my Mods & Maintenance playlist: Yamaha FZ6R: R6 Rear-Sets Conversion ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HV2Jp7nu-bY.html

@@HalfClickUp Awesome, thank you!

Yep for factory replacement parts, I always go to Partzilla.com. It’s all organized by factory blowout diagrams so you know you’re ordering exactly what you need. This Outlaw Racing will not fit the factory shift rod, though. Find you factory one on the cheap on eBay, perhaps.

Yes Sir, noticed straight away right there on the rear stand that the upshift “clicks” took a lot less effort. More sensitive half click up, too nawmsayin 😬

Certainly a possibility. I also may need to start from the drawing board and incorporate several of the smaller links instead of the main body, but I’m hoping it feels as good going down the road as it does on the rear stand. We’ll know soon enough!

@@HalfClickUp it was about sixty degrees off before, which would make it twice as hard to shift as it will be when you get it dialed in.

@@brianhaygood183 I hadn’t mentioned it in the video, but the upshifts are VERY light now compared to before. I’m excited about how that will transfer to the track.

If/when I install a quick shifter, that’ll certainly be up for some serious consideration!

2005. Any second gen R6 set will do.

The combination isn’t uncomfortable with respect to the bike’s purpose now. My objective was to eliminate peg scraping at the track, which was this bike’s limitation. I’m running 3.27 gearing, too, so long haul riding isn’t a thing for me and this bike anymore. I commute on a Tiger 800 these days and reserve the Fizzer for track days and the Friday commute to bring you guys new episodes of Fizzer Friday. As far as the new rider’s geometry, though, I wouldn’t hesitate for a minute to swap back to factory gearing and put this bike back to daily commuting duties if I needed to. I wouldn’t install rearsets without clip-ons, though.. that would be counterintuitive for sure.

Nice! I’ve been looking at the Tiger 660 Sport if I ever decide to jump to a new bike 👍 Wasn’t sure if it was still your commuter alongside being a track bike, makes total sense to me now though! Cheers for all your videos

@@StreamlineTheory thanks for sticking with me dude 😎

@@StreamlineTheory yep the Tiger 660 is a sweet bike! It’s comfy, too. Hey thanks for sticking with me dude 😎
