G,
PM ReelRazor a number of the guys here have his full shock swap kits and others have just used hi nifty adjustable Dog bones
Re: Easy R6 shock upgrade
I recently installed one of these kits and can recommend it to anyone who's looking for a shock upgrade. reelrazor is great to deal with and the package has everything you need (and more) in terms of hardware and instructions. It is very easy to install and looks great. Hard to beat the price and performance of this kit.
Re: Easy R6 shock upgrade
TK installed this for me last week and I just picked it up. I gotta say, it's like a new bike. Night and day difference.

Re: Easy R6 shock upgrade
Just recieved mine day before yesterday, installed yesterday, looks good so far, waiting for rain to pass so I can test her out. So far everything was smooth sailing. Parts were in good shape, he included clear directions for the mechanically impaired and the dog bones were primed and ready for paint. hell, they were even set to make up for the 10mm difference between the stock fxr shcok and the r6 shock. Great dealing with you reelrazor! Fast turn around and ship time too... You have made a man taken from his primary shop happy today! (and not in a wierd awkward way... heheh) ![Cheers! :cheers:](./images/smilies/gr_cheers.gif)

Re: Easy R6 shock upgrade
Best upgrade I've ever done!
Now, I'm gonna need another shock. Some bitch ran me into a major sinkhole tonight and I busted mine in 2...oops.
I'm not sure if I'm going to get it now, or wait til spring. I'm having a major spinal surgery in a few weeks and tonight was my last ride of the season anyhow.
I haven't looked at it too close yet, so I'm not sure if the spring is usable. I had to ride home 15 blocks in first while sitting on my tank. I'll keep you updated.
