thanks chucker, I've seen the OEM tubes for sale but $180 for one tube seems a little outrageous. I'm hoping to find more affordable replacements.

anyone have any ideas?

are there any Yamaha fork tubes that will fit in my fz6r lowers? Will r6s tubes work? I'm having a hard time finding replacements for my bent fork tube.

Hey! what are the odds? I'm in North Canton too, or just near there, Uniontown to be exact

There was a reason for multiple posts; 1) i'm wondering if any other yamaha tubes can be used as replacements for the FZ6r 2) I need to buy stock tubes if anyone has a set

I have a set of bent tubes with springs. I'll sell them cheap. Looking for new fork tubes if anyone has a set

WTB stock fork tubes One of my tubes are bent. anyone do a conversion and have their stock tubes laying around? cash ready! 330.933.3243

FZ6R replacement for tubes needed I recently started wrenching on a wrecked fz6r. the fork lower was cracked so I bought new lowers just to find that one tube is bent. I can't seem to find a used fork tube in decent shape so I thought I'd ask if any other yamaha tubes will work? I know r6...

Thanks brothers! I appreciate the suggestions! I think i'll get the seat recovered, maybe some nice tuck and roll. at any rate, I got to tear into her a little last night, but wasn't able to get her started. I could hear the fuel pump priming and she turned over smooth but she didn't start...

I recently picked up a 2009 fz6r that is a little bit wrecked. I'm looking for some stock parts to make it pass an inspection to make her road legal. Most of these parts might be hard to come by but if anyone knows of a parts bike or a salvage site or anything, let me know! Things I need...

Also, anyone know what all years and models I can use to replace my forks? is it like 2009-12 fz6r have the same front ends?

hell yeah, thanks guys! Tony, what did the recover of your seat cost?

Hey guys, I'm an avid rider and motorcycle enthusiast but this is my first foray into a Modern Sportbike. I rebuild and ride vintage motorcycles, I have a '76 FLH, '74 shovel chop, '66 BSA a50, and the newest bike i've ever owned is a '97 1200 Sportster. At any rate, one day I realized that...
