SB6 is an odd one.... different dash, forks, yokes, wheels, mastercylinders, brakes.... paint scheme is a little different.... not sure why the Ohlins reservoir is where it is and the battery is in front of the dash rather than behind.... _________________ '99 DB4 #104, '96 SB6 #1165, '94 DB2 J #652, '99 DB4 #088, '08 VTX1800, '93 ZXR750R M1, '95 ZXR750, '95 ZXR750 Race Bike, '94 CBR400rr NC29 Race Bike, '94 CB250, '49 BSA C10 250, '61 BSA A10 650, '89 ZXR750, '91 Ducati 851 |

Maybe the old bracket for the ohlins res broke?....Different clocks?,,,maybe the old wheels were speedo pick-up drive unit off front wheel...cable driven...change of wheels to more modern.....new clocks for electronic pick up if new wheels didnt accommodate mechanical speedo drive unit I imagine....Does look nice though |

Yeah that all makes sense. I was thinking maybe it has a different Ohlins shock and the hose to the res is a different length? The original remote res simply has a plastic coated P type clamp the bolts directly to the frame on the RHS lower.
All nice improvements by the looks, I wonder what else it has? _________________ '99 DB4 #104, '96 SB6 #1165, '94 DB2 J #652, '99 DB4 #088, '08 VTX1800, '93 ZXR750R M1, '95 ZXR750, '95 ZXR750 Race Bike, '94 CBR400rr NC29 Race Bike, '94 CB250, '49 BSA C10 250, '61 BSA A10 650, '89 ZXR750, '91 Ducati 851 |
