I inquired with Sharkbait66 about picking up a spacer kit and he told me has only two left! He also has no plans to continue making this kit as he no longer has the access he once did to the tools to make the kit. So I might be second to last to attempt this mod for a while.

What I'm doing here is calling out and appealing to those vendors, machinists and/or shops who might be able take over providing this kit. When FAZR6 gave up the FE kit, there was someone who stepped up (woohoo SBN) and continued to make it the successful mod that it is today.

I hope we can do the same here. I think as more people start tracking the FZ6, or start riding race cups like the FZ6 Cup in Australia, the R6 Fork Mod will be an important mod. I think there is no doubt that the FZ6 is growing in popularity as I see one almost once a week now (if not twice or more in the same day) which is way up from when I started riding it (maybe once every couple months). I work with about 4 FZ6 riders in a company of 5,500 and and about 100 riders.

Anyways, if you don't have access to the tools or the time to do the work, try to find someone who does.

Thanks all...
