Yamaha R6 fairing
Anyone who has ever been on a motorcycle for a short fast ride or a longer ride quickly learns to appreciate why a motorcycle has a fairing on the front. First, it saves you from getting pummeled by the wind at high speeds. Second, without one you will be having bugs for your next meal. And third, it makes your bike more aerodynamic and thus more fuel efficient.
There are occasions when you may want or need to remove the YAMAHA R6 FAIRING on your bike. Perhaps you no longer like the stock model and you want to change it over to an after market fairing for a custom look or to be more effective in a certain area. Regardless of the reason, you'll need a little time and patience, plus the correct tools to remove the fairing properly.
Even if you don't plan to replace the fairing, you could need to remove it for other reasons as well-like painting the bike, cleaning, or doing certain maintenance and repair jobs on your bike. Before you start taking anything apart, go online and look at some of the many blogs on the Internet that can give you some tips and pointers on how to do this correctly. Or pull out your motorcycle manual. The important thing is to know in advance that if you grab hold of it wrong, you could easily crack this lightweight piece and end up having to replace an expensive part even if that wasn't the original plan, so use caution.
A quick study of the YAMAHA R6 FAIRING reveals there are some small access points located periodically on the fairing. This is by design and provides the openings you need to do some routine maintenance work without actually removing the entire fairing. Be sure to use them if you can because they were put there to make things easier for you.
Don't really like your current YAMAHA R6 FAIRING? Many of the after market models range in price and offer different features designed for specific requirements. But whatever your reason for wanting a new one, everyone can safely agree that the fairing really impacts how good your bike looks and also the motorcycle's stability, aerodynamic performance, and the complete experience of riding the bike.
If you plan on taking this on yourself, you should be advised to take you time so as not to damage the bike or the fairing and make sure you follow the instructions to the letter so things are done right and safely. You will be unhooking things like your blinkers so make sure that when you reassemble you reconnect them so you can ride safely. When you are done you will have a great looking ride and the satisfaction of knowing you did it yourself. - 21392
