Remove the Rearset Safeties on a 2009 Yamaha R6

Bike Upgrades, mini-Sode 1.

In summary, I, along with quite a few other people, consider these to be unnecessary. There isn't really a point to having them on the rear sets. If you are hanging off of the bike in the right manner, for a corner, I don't know if they'd touch or not. I can see them causing more harm than good however if they did.

Song used in the intro is "Red Eyes and Tears" by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.

Go buy their album. They kick ass: http://www.amazon.com/B-R-M-C/dp/B001I4I0YU/ref=ntt_mus_ep_wlb_oe_mp3

Sorry man for the lack of updates. With college, work, girlfriend and a full social life it's hard to keep updates. I'm trying though. I haven't done any engine mods on the bike yet. I really want to do a full Graves, or Leo Vince system.

I'm working on acquiring some GoPros as well. ^_^

Dude, BRMC in the intro! I dig that band...seen them live in Boston. A lot of people don't know about them but I use them in some of my vids. Cheers to you using a song from their self-titled album =)

Yes! BRMC is the jam. I caught their act in D.C. and was surprised at how awesome they were live. Been a fan since. I'm into the whole garage rock / blues rock two and three piece bands anyway. =D They are from out your way if I'm not mistaken.
