It will come up easier. Cover the rear brake and you will be fine.

Re: help with "new" BP

Then what was the point of gearing your bike? lol. Just messin with ya. It should come up alot easier in 2nd for you now and you will be cruising at a slower speed at the rpms you were used to in 2nd before you changed your gearing. It wont affect the bp at all, only how fast you get there, as said above.

Re: help with "new" BP

Kinda funny ....I read the first couple of posts and saw you say it comes up in 2nd with out a bounce. I was like WTF??? No way.


Then I realized you said FZ6r and not FZR600. I should probably read a little closer next time.

cos i have the same tranny as the r6, but i have 16-46 instead of the better 16-48 of the r6. i feel the bike needs more acceleration sometimes...

Acceleration yes, but you do know your going to loose about 15mph off your top end or top speed with the gear change, which is going to make the bike slower, right?

yep. from a theoretical 169 to a more "real-world" 146 mph. its only a 600.
