Yamaha R6 Question

[Liamo]

Howdy folks, a mte has a 2006 R6 track bike with a fairly tired standard shock. Another mate has a low mileage shock from his 2006 model that we can have for nothing, and the question is, will it go and how easily? Im thinking there's at least a half chance it would bolt straight in ...

Thanks in advance boys and girls ...

Assume you mean an 02 R6 track bike not an 06 trackbike?

What way does the res go? I fitted an 05 shock to a 99 R6 and had to cut away some of the swingarm like this:

So it fitted like this:

But if it is straight across then it should fit ok.

I love fitting different shocks to bikes, always seem to end up doing it!
