Thank you for posting my friend!!

Solid upload, been debating on getting 1 for my R6. Had a really bad tank slapper right after I got my bike, I feel super sketch hitting bumps on the interstate ever sense. Maybe this will convince me to finally get 1, ty

Great upload man. Definitely putting one on my 6. I don’t know, maybe it’s the lightweight of the 6 but it’s bad for tank slappers when you’re really getting on it.

Thanks! Yeah that’s crazy. Thank goodness I haven’t had that issue before putting my stabilizer on!

Had one on Saturday at 100+ while changing lanes on the HWY. Hit a bump. Thankfully I was able to throttle out, but it scared the shiet out of me. I'm 100% getting one.

Wow it took you risking your life 3 times before you got a dampener smh you lucky and stupid. @thanos1952

If I put a dampener, does that mean I can’t use my quad lock cus of the fork stem already used?

Yes unfortunately you won’t be able to. But I’ve seen some other finding ways to put a clamp on the clip on so they can still have their phone. May have to do a KZread or Google search.

How does that one work? I've only seen the ones that look like miny shocks.

@itsmeericb

2 жыл бұрын

It uses hydraulic valving and fluid inside of the stabilizer itself to absorbs shock through the forks. The higher you set it the stiffer it becomes. Just becomes tough to turn during slow maneuvers like U turns, so you’d want to have it set lower.

I would love to see a controlled experiment - (before/after) - where a bike gets a tanks slapper on a particular road, then you install the stablilizer, and go over the same road - to demonstrate the actual difference it made.

What are the differences in the gpr and a piston stabilizer like the ohlins one?

@itsmeericb

2 жыл бұрын

In my opinion just the design really. And how they are mounted. Not to mention price. Ohlins can be up to $200 more than the GPR. Also The GPR is easier to adjust and supposedly offers more dampening.

I have this same set up on my bike. So when I went to change my engine filter, during reinstalling the GPR unit, I think I stripped one of the screws. When I try to tighten the screw, there’s some resistance and if I keep turning, it slips. Do I have to purchase a new frame you think?

You either can’t use one or you can mount it in a different location such as the handle bar. I’ve seen people do it before. You just have to get a different mount.

so my forks aren’t aligned should i get them fixed first before using this or does it not matter ?

Mine started leaking oil after 1.5 years or about 10k miles. I cannot recommend it really. Get ohlins instead.

@itsmeericb

Depends on the rider. Try each setting and see what feels more comfortable to you. More stiff and harder to turn or softer and easier to turn.

But which is the right number? Like 4, 5?

@itsmeericb

Depends. I’d say about 4 or so. Not too stiff for the street but also not so soft to where it’s not doing much.

What if you have a factory one ? Did your bike come with a factory damner?

No the R6 does not come with one standard. If your bike already has one, they are usually pretty good from the factory. You can always upgrade though, just not sure how much better it would be over the stock stabilizer.
