im sure this has been already asked but i missed it...is anybody running a hyper pro on a F4i with a 954 frontend.... if so, how are you doing it...?

50mm fork mount

good question i have the same setup and now because of db bars i cant use my scotts damper, someone post up pics so i can steal the idea !!!

Joe Brown

i ran it before you have to put spacers under the mount that goes on top of the frame/tank

alexcod

i didnt want to put it on the tank mount , i have seen some of those and there way too hi , i figured i would kick it by doing cross throughs of special k type stuff, what about those that connect to the front side of the forks and the neck of the frame ????

I need a front mount to for my 1000rr front end.

don't know anything bout doing it that way, but on my 03 600RR I have a Hyperpro with an 03 600RR mount with a 954 front end. Works perfect! The mounts on top the triple are the same since the same notch and steering stem size are there. Andy from Controlled Insanity built me a new tank mount after I blew my last one up in a lil endo flip. I'll try to find a pic when I get home of the new tank mount, its basically 3/8-1/2" X 1/2" steel for where it mounts to the tank, 1/4" steel for the arm of the mount and 1/2" steel rod threaded for the bolt that holds the damper end. A lil precision welding and some paint and you got a pretty, and pretty solid damper mount(more solid than the one that came with it!).

Alex, I'll see you tonight! I'll show you the setup I got. It is pretty dope, and cheap too!

ZANE

Actually, you can kinda see it in this pic, I took one of the shindy (aka daytona) dampers. (the long one for 929's ~$150) and then made a couple simple brackets that bolt on to the lower tripple, and front stay mounts on the frame. It is adjustable and out of the way. I love it. It could be a little stronger though, for unlimited approach stoppies I wish I had one more click to make it stiffer. I may consider replacing the oil with a heavier weight, that should do it.

Later.

I like that. Thought bout doing that on my 954 so the DB bars wouldn't have a chance to hit the tank mount, or just to have two dampers since somebody told me its the cool thing to do!

adamsf

may try that too... thanks....

any thoughts on the GPR's.. seems like alot of guys are running those now...

ZANE

GPR's are awesome, unfortunately with db bars the only way I have seen to mount them is with a huge riser/tripple tree system. It is expensive and as I said huge. I didn't have the money, and didn't like the looks of it anyway. With that said, there is no question the radial scotts or GPR dampers are a better component.

eazenutz33

haven't tried a new style GPR, but my old-style GPR sucked.....almost a 1/2" of play before it would start working and the components were weak soft metal that rounded off really easy. I switched to a Hyperpro RSC and won't go back!

STICKYstunts

I mounted a rod-style ohlins to my f4i with a rc51 front end. Cut off the end of a clipon and slide that on the fork. Then get some steel plate and make a little right-angle plate that connects to the frame where the fairing stay mounts. Bolt it up. Works really well and is out of the way.

SliverR6

You got a pic?

alexcod

that sounds like a great idea, but please show some pics , I need to get this figured out asap !

Herb

I have been inquiring about the same for my setup.
