    06-07 R6 front end/forks

    Heres the story. Some douche was selling "08" forks once i got them, they were obviously a 06-07 setup. Like any likely scumbag he wont return my emails or phone calls. So im stuck with forks i cant use.

    So up for sale. 06-07 R6 front forks with both triples, i will bring them by GMD to make sure everything is straight before selling them to anyone. This will be around Xmas weekend.

    looking for $300. i will post up pics if there is genuine interest.

    06/07 are 10mm shorter than the 08-2010's as far as I know and the lower triples are a bit different from what I heard from Justin, everything else should be the same lol

    Re: 06-07 R6 front end/forks

    like rammy said 06-07 10mm shorter and width of tube is different, cant interchange between 08-06/07 forks unless you change triples as well

    Diameter of the forks is the same. I have 06-07 forks on my bike using the 08 Triples. They are shorter as stated above.

    I'll most likely want those if they're indeed straight.
