ok so this past month ive not had rear brakes...so ive been working on stoppies 180 stoppies ect. now ive got a random click in my front end.. just wondering what you guy check on your front ends when rolling stoppies, nuts and bolts, cables brakes **** like that

Thanks
James

 

check seals, base, all the bolts from axle all the way up to top triple. Make sure everything tight to spec. replace brake fluid, check pads/rotor.

 

thanks... i think it might be the axle.

 

U ride an R6 bro... prob means ur frame is goona fold in 1/2
















































JK

 

Sounds like your steering head bearings.

 

as much as people **** on R6s ive never really had any problems but it would make such a good video clip if my frame did fold in half but i just checked and my lower triple tree was a little loose not much though and so werent the bolts on the bottem of the forks... now time to go ride and see whats changed...

thanks James

 

+1

 

mine creeks too.. oh well, just check if every bolt is tight.. rotors and calipers too!

 

oh and check the clamp for the clippons. Mine had a hairline crack and later broke on me.

 

i got dirtbike bars so thats not it i check them every time i ride... but new problem i put new bars on tonight and now my throttle is kinda sticky is their a way to get a little extra room on the cables ive never really screwed around with it much but its dark so ill play with it some more tomorrow

 

my 600rr always has the steering stem spanner bolt there loosening.. its F-in annoying

 

I have a click in my front end on my R6 also. I used to work at a mall and have no Lo-Jack, so I had one of those metal U-brackets that have a padlock that slips onto it. Always ran it between my front brake rotors. One time, clocked out and hopped on the bike. Couple girls were walkin out, so I hopped on pretty quick and took off. Got about 2 inches, front wheel jammed, and I went down LOL. Forgot that I had that damned thing on. Put a little kink on the inside trim of my rotor so it clicks slightly when maneuvering the bike on foot. Doesn't help much, but yeah

 

Haha


And i say bearings

 

you need 2 spanner wrenchs,tighten the bottom one(leave wrench on and hold it tight) then lock it in place with the top one.
