Drop the Handle Bars? - Yamaha FZ6R Forums - International FZ6R / XJ6 Motorcycle Community Forum

I was wondering if any one knows if you could put a R6 front end on a 2009 FZ6r to drop the front handle bars to give it a more sporty appearance. I'm just curious I like my bike the way it is but, one day I might get crazy and change it out!!! Give me some advice I appreciate it.

Only if you take off the body work. Clip-on's like what the R6 and most sport bikes use are too low for the body work on our bike.

stay tuned for my swap, i'll find out if it works. I do not have any body work though, so I won't be able to tell if it hits.
