ask bill d hes the r6 master....yes!!!!

Run braces from pass pegs to main pegs.

 

thanks for the help.

 

i found a way to do my 01 but the pegs on the rear of the 03 bolt up diff.

 

.. you can do it on the left side. just twist the metal.

 

care to elaborate?

 

This is what I did on one of my boy's R's

 

Get a piece of metal, and drill holes in it so it attaches at each peg bracket. And run it from the rearset to the pass peg bracket. It makes it a lot stronger.

 

can you show a bigger pic of the sub frame also so i can see where it starts and stops. is the sub frame holding up good? thanks

 

damn that looks tuff

 

The new bracing extends back 6 inches from the front mount, and adds a thickness of .38, for a total width now of little over 5/8's of an inch.

The lower edge in the pics actually dips down into the chanelling of the subframe.

Subframes holding up like a tank...

 

did u do that welding?

 

Yes. Cast is a pain in the ***, but as you can see...it can be done.

 

is there any way it can be made stronger towards the back of the bike. thats where mine broke at right behind the front seat?

can you take a pic of the whole sub frame so i can have a pic to take to the guy to try to get mine to stiffing up like that.

 

yea, just weld some plate to the area that needs strengthening...

Ill try to snap a pic, the sub's back on the bike in full trim now...but Ill see what I can do

 

thanks for help. do you think it will hold up for bar tricks and stuff like that?

 

Its going to do nothing but help..the sub's from Yamaha are sad, but with some bracing they hold up pretty good.
