Default Installed Tech 2 Front Mount

I woke up really early today and was supposed to go riding but since it was wet and cold i decided to do some long delayed work on the rides. I took off the big and ugly license plate bracket off the R6 and then went to my neighbors house to do the FMR.

Step 1. Bumper Removal. This is pretty easy, coulple screws, couple bolts, and a nice yank.




Step 2. Fitment and alignment.



Fits nice

Step 3. Drill Holes.


Step 4. Make L bracket to hold the bottom of the radiator.


Step 5. Attach hoses and mount radiator.


Step 6. Re-install Bumper.


Step 7. Stand back and admire




It took me about 1.5 hours. I also had to take some rain breaks and go in the house to warm up a little cause it was cooooooold.

I wanted to see what I could get for it if I was forced to get rid of it. I have something comin up that migh kinda screw me. If anything I would sell my bike before I sell the S.

Nothing other than it looking amazing everytime I look at the car.

I'm sure it will cool the air better, hence improving performance but not really adding horsepower.

Agreed it looks great.

Why did you have to fabricate a bracket? I thought it came with all the hardware required.
