Hi all,
Does the above mod work on the 1K5? I can find several references on the search, but no specifics - which year tube, what needs to be done etc

Can someone point me in the right direction please?

Heres the part# info if you need it:

R1 4YR-26240-01-00
R6 5EB-26240-00-00

the R1 is 1/6 and more extreme than the 1/5 R6 tube

Keep in mind It does not fit exactly like the stock one. A little shorter and tighter.

Mine fit just like stock rraider. Maybe it was the wrong part number or year R1 that had the problem. The above part numbers are the ones I have and both rolled like butter.

What does this mod do? Does it give you more throttle response?

I like how the tube is black plastic and has that little dust seal type ring on it.

Fits up nice too. Don't forget to order the left grip as well so you can shorten both bars a bit and the grips are the same.

Cheap mod and nice feel with OEM quality grips too.
