    Any one have trouble fitting a 120/70/17 pirelli diablo supercorsa on the 2002 YZF 6R? Mine is to tall for the front fender to fit.

    Yep,too tight on my '99. Tire warmer too.......forget about it. Took the fender off and just run it without

    Air is just finishing up on a taller fender the R6 tire issue. Should be ready before Daytona.

    99% sure an 03-04 front fender will fit. I believe a brand new tire will still hit (dunlop race tire) and if you pick up a hotbodies fender you can drill it lower so it will clear the warmer/tire easier.

    Was an issue in 03 as well, I just made a bracket and used some bondo to raise it up.

    Remember that the early R6s used a 120/60R17 (smaller dia.) front so with any current 120/70R17 adjustments will need to be made

    The R6 fender AirTech is making taller is for the early bikes with conventional forks. The International Challenge bike use those forks and the fender is for them.
