Help! R6 Compatible Parts

Post by PyroTRX » Wed Mar 28, 2012 5:04 am

Hi there, I'm about 2 months into a streetfighter conversion of my 97 TRX850 & just want to know what R6 parts are compatible? In particular I'm looking for new rear sets (black anodized ones), I have found plenty of them on eBay but no one seems to know if the R6 ones will fit & as I'm in lill' old NZ - it could become a costly exersize in shipping if they don't fit.

Thanks heaps in advance for any help/ideas/suggestions & tips!

G'day mate, rear sets I have no idea about, but a/m fuel caps for the R6 fit the Rex :)

I'd measure up the distances of the holes & check out some generic ones on eBay, they should have measurements & may even have a cross reference of which models they fit.

Good luck, don;t forget to post some pics ;)

Alloy conversion plates can be made very quickly to allow the fitment of R6 rear sets, I intend to do just that for the Gilles R6 rear sets I`m putting on mine, they `look` very similar to this ZX10 set :

I cannot confirm the fixing hole spacing at this time as I`m not near the bike but can tell you they are 8mm bolt sizes.
