ZX6R and crash bungs - advice welcomed

Can anybody help me - your advice would be most welcomed.

I have a J2 2001 ZX6R and I would welcome comments as to which crash protectors anyone would recommend.

Also - will the fairing need modifying?

Thanks in advance.

R&G ones seem to be the fav, check out www.mcnninjas.co.uk (tons of ninja info) for more details on this Very Happy

ZX6man - thanks - looks like a good site. I'll see what I can find.

R&G Racing ones are the ones to get. Plently of people on here have had R&G mushrooms on their bike and crashed, have a read of this post and this post.

My R & G's have just arrived, yes their meant to be the best.

Only gripe is that on my model (G1 98) you have to drill the fairings, check on the site to see if you have to on your model.

You do have to drill the fairings on a J2, I had them on my J2. It's not a problem, just drill a small pilot hole and then a bigger hole.

just fitted crash bobbins to my 1999 G2 - apart from drilling the fairing, i had to get a modified radiator reservoir as the bolt goes through the centre of it. R&G racing supply the whole lot together so it might be worth giving them a call.

Cheers

R&G

Saved my bike. Should be the first thing you buy for your bike.

I put R&G bungs on my ZX6R A1P. I got a dealer to fit them because I didn't have the right tools, and it took them hours! Pain in the arse apparently.
