Roaring Toyz lowering link and an OEM sidestand thats been shortened. After a couple years of riding my wife decided she wanted to go stock height on her 6R, so i No longer need this. Shipping can be worked out. Please PM or Email. Located in Marshfield, WI

I got a Roaring toys lowering link.. I never did take a real measurement after the install, but I'd say 1.75" is about right. We lowered the front end 1.5" as well. My 5'3" fiancée likes it. She can place both feet flat on the ground. Doesn't seem to have any clearance issues or other...

ON HER HEAD!!! LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLLLLLL..... ....ok ok ... I wont quit my day job...

Edit: Part needed, See Post #1!

Thanks for the info.. Maybe even someone on here has one for sale!

Center Stand Part Needed. Straight up, Does it work? Edit: So, I purchased a centerstand from a scrapper in Europe off of flee-bay.. But I realize now that he doesn't have the hook that bolts to the bike that the center stand spring attaches to. Does anyone have one of these?? Its #10 in...

Though... If you were to look into an FZ6, they are very nice bikes, and they sport just under 100hp! I ride an fz6 (22,500mi) and my fiancee rides a lowered fz6r. Yamaha's quality on both of these 'budget basic' sport bikes is insurmountable for the price that they cost. My fiancee came...

What a deal!! A $4,000 bike missing $2500 worth of parts.. for the low price of $3000! I better buy this..

My lowered kickstand sits perfectly flat, just like the Yamaha kick stand... Because that's what it is! All I did was slice out a 1" chunk from the kickstand and have my buddy zip it back together with his tig = lowered kickstand without having to pay PSR $100 for something that sorta sucks.

All you need to do is pull the lowering link out and bolt the shock into the frame mount. Raise your forks back up in the tripples if the fronts been lowered. And youre ready to ride!

In addition: I see the the CR9E is the reccommended plug, any benefits to installing a CR9EK that has a double ground strap? (which my '09 FZ6 runs)
