    Like the titles says I'm looking for a r6 bottom triple and fork tube straightening recommendations. I have one fork that looks straight to the eye, but you can't quite spin the bottom tube around 360 degrees. I can spin it maybe 300 degrees and then there is quite a bit of resistance that I don't want to force through.

    Where are you located. Gerry's out on the west coast and fixes lots of mangled R6's :D

    +1. Had 2 very tweaked frames & swingarms straightened by Dr. J and both bikes handled better than when they were new. I also live in San Diego and he did one of them while I waited saving me the extra trip through traffic hell. Ask first and if they're not crazy busy he may be able to do it the same day.

    Thanks guys for the straightening recommendation. I had Dr Johns straighten the forks and they came back better than new. I would highly recommend him to anyone that needs some forks straighten. On that note though, I did mess up and didn't send the bottom triples out. So I'm still looking for a nice straight bottom triple.
