Congratulations!
You have just purchased the world’s finest frame sliders
for the Yamaha R6. These sliders have been designed to offer
unsurpassed protection to your Yamaha YZF600 R6 in the unfortunate
event of a lowside or tip over. Motovation frame sliders are
designed and manufactured by a company that only makes frame
sliders. Each and every model is tested for drop and slide protection.
They are tough but not brittle and can also absorb a huge impact.
Sportsriders around the world who have tested various models
of our products on the track have all given their thumbs up after
experiencing first hand, the benefits of Motovation Frame Sliders.
Please
read all instructions before beginning work! These frame
sliders are designed to fit specific engine mounts of your
Yamaha R6. This kit has separate left and right pieces (left
and right while sitting on the bike). It is highly recommended
that you refer to your service manual before performing this
installation. If you are unsure about the tightening torque,
here are some standard torque settings to
serve as a guide.
Included
in this kit:
(2) Heat treated socket head bolts • m10 x 90mm 1.5
pitch
(2) M10 Stainless Steel Washers
(2) Anodized Aluminum bushings (pressed into plastic)
(2) Plastic Frame Sliders,
(1) Black Anodized Bracket (Right Side Street Kit Only),
(1) M10x50mm 1.25 Pitch Stainless Steel Bolt (Right Side Street Kit Only).
INSTRUCTIONS:
Before beginning make sure pinch bolts are tight to prevent engine movement.
1. Remove the right-side engine mount bolt (forward lower mount).
2. Install the slider using the bolt and washer (under bolt head) supplied
in this kit. *See ‘Fairing Modifications’ below.
3. Tighten the engine mount bolt to the factory specifications - DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
4. Remove the left-side frame mount bolt (middle mount – black frame).
5. Install the left slider using the bolt supplied in this kit. NO FAIRING
MODIFICATION SHOULD BE REQUIRED FOR LEFT SLIDER INSTALLATION.*
6. Tighten the engine mount bolt to the factory specifications - DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
* If you are using race bodywork, follow the same procedure for both sliders.
See fairing modification below.
If
you have the Street Kit
1. Remove the right-side engine mount bolt (forward lower mount).
2. Install the shorter slider to the supplied bracket with the short 50mm stainless
steel fine pitch bolt (Right Side Street Kit Only)
3. Install the bracket using the bolt supplied in this kit.
4. Tighten the engine mount bolt to the factory specifications - DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
5. Remove the left-side frame mount bolt (middle mount – black frame).
6. Install the left slider using the bolt supplied in this kit. NO FAIRING
MODIFICATION SHOULD BE REQUIRED FOR LEFT SLIDER INSTALLATION.*
7. Tighten the engine mount bolt to the factory specifications - DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN.
FAIRING MODIFICATIONS If you have the race kit, install the
right side slider bolt without the slider. Engage only
a few threads and re-install the fairing to mark the inside
of
the fairing for the pilot hole. We sometimes coat the
head of the socket screw with a non permanent marker or place
some putty on the
inside of the fairing so the the screw will make a mark or an indentation. Once
the center of the bolt location on the fairing is determined, it is suggested
that you drill a small pilot hole to locate the engine mount. Once you have
found the center, use a hole saw and cut a hole approximately 38 mm in diameter.
Edges can be filed for perfect fit, or inaccuracies in drilling. We have found
that placing masking tape on the area helps protect from scratches, cracks,
etc.
Thank-you
for purchasing Motovation products. Please ride safe
and always wear protective clothing.
