Anyone who has ever been on a motorcycle for a short fast ride or a longer ride quickly learns to appreciate why a motorcycle has a fairing on the front. First, it saves you from getting pummeled by the wind at high speeds. Second, without one you will be having bugs for your next meal. And third, it makes your bike more aerodynamic and thus more fuel efficient.
There are occasions when you may want or need to remove the YAMAHA R6 FAIRING on your bike. Perhaps you no longer like the stock model and you want to change it over to an after market fairing for a custom look or to be more effective in a certain area. Regardless of the reason, you'll need a little time and patience, plus the correct tools to remove the fairing properly.
Another option and reason to remove the fairing would be repairs and maintenance, cleaning or even painting should you decide to made change things up for a totally different look than you had.
When removing the fairing, you need to refer back to the manual or any of the large number of Blogs out there because the fairing is lightweight and easily cracked if you grab hold of the wrong piece and ruin it totally and leave you with something that can cost an awful lot to replace. As you look over the YAMAHA R6 FAIRING you will find little access point here and there in the fairing. These are there on purpose to make it easier for you to get at the places that might need routine maintenance without total removal of the fairing. They were put there to make life easier and save the fairing and you should use them as needed.
If you are unhappy with your current YAMAHA R6 FAIRING, you can locate after market models that range from minute and fairly inexpensive to rather costly yet infinitely more convenient replacements gears towards specific needs, which you may have found lacking on the factory fairing. No matter the reason, the fairing is a huge part of the looks of your bike and also a large part of the stability of the bike at higher speeds and the aerodynamic quality of the unit and hence, the overall riding experience.
Replacing the fairing isn't an extremely difficult task, but if you plan to do it on your own, go slow, follow the guidelines exactly, and work on the project when you have the time and patience to devote to it. Since you'll have to unhook the blinkers and do other disassembly, you'll need to keep a level head and ensure you reassemble everything correctly so your bike will still be a safe, stable ride. But when you're finished, think about how great your bike will look and how great you'll feel because you did the work yourself. - 16887
