Bitripple Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 Hi, dont know if anyone can help... I am lowering my 2007 R6 my aprox 30mm drop. By my not very mechanically minded head, i think this will make the side stand a bit too long. Can anyone tell me if i can adjust where the side stand is fixed or will actually need to worry about the side stand or know if an older model R6 or R1 has a shorter side stand that would fit my 07 R6. I seem to recall the 2004 R1 is a lower bike than the 07 R6. Any advice much appreciated. BTW - already looked into cutting and welding the existing stand, problem is they are made of monkey metal and if i weld it, the stand will crack under the R6 weight.

pilninggas Posted April 5, 2010 Share Posted April 5, 2010 if you want something uber-trick, then this may be useful - i don't know where you are but they may export or have a dealer network in your location: http://www.buynowroaringtoyz.com/Billet_Lowering_Kickstand_99_07_R6_04_06_R1_Black_p/rty555b.htm not cheap tho. i know when people shorten and weld their stands diy, they usually put a piece of steel up the back to reinforce it.
