Send me the forks. I will take care of them. I will also check and see what I can do for a shock. I will have to let you know Tuesday on the shock but I believe I can hook you up there as well. Good by you!
I have secured replacement clipon bars and a rear sprocket as well as some monetary donations. Mr. Hardy that is awesome....You guys have always done good work for me and I know he will truly appreciate your efforts.
I have the Vortex rearsets that I took off the RC51 (2002). One peg was ground down but the other is fine. If you think parts will fit let me know (or if you know what type of end the Vortex has, I think these are nubless) Drop me a PM if you think I have something that will be of use and I will post pictures or descriptions as needed.
Rob, I'll tell you what would be really useful from them if you are willing to part with them would be the Toe pieces on both the shift and brake lever. Both of those had been replaced with some bolts and nuts at some point.
Is the RC51 Penske shock pretty much the same as the R6....I have one just sitting on my RC that's not getting used I'll donate if it can be converted to work.
I'll donate a set of stainless brake lines. Doesn't sound like the bike 'needs' them, but they would add some style and spruce up the brakes a little. It would be great if in doing so I could also get some exposure in the ATL area. If you have ideas there, just PM me... Let me know if you're interested in the lines.
Thanks a ton guys I am going to ask Sharkskinz if they will help out on the price of the bodywork if nobody has any old stuff Painters like fresh surface to do thier magic on but used is good too me and Kenny can strip and sand....
We are taking cash donations as well...to cover shipping paint parts ect.. ANY money left over will go to the Freedom Alliance Scholarship Fund...they send kids to collage that have had a family member taken from them in the Military Forces They sent 167 kids last year 2008 Paypal [email protected] or get hold of Kenny Duval we are not looking for a big deal just enough for a cool bike for him to ride
I've got headlights and both levers I can send out. I might have an exhaust hanger too, let me check.
Not sure if this helps, but it sounds like he needs the entire front end. I have a set of mint 08 R6R monoblocks I would donate if you decide to swap for a late model setup.
We are staying with the conventional front end...but thank you very much for your willingness to donate.
i might have some stuff left over from my 1st gen R6 in the garage... i know 100% for sure i have a few sets of rotors, and i think i might have a front rim
I have a handy stands front stand that I have not used in years I can donate. May have some other items. Check tomorrow around the shop.
