Application
For 2006-2009 Yamaha R6 (Non S)
The purpose of this modification is to invert the shift pattern which makes shifting up faster because you don’t have to move your foot over your shifter every time you want to shift up.
This mod does not work for S model Yamaha R6′s because the shift rod on the newer models does not go through the frame as it does on the “S” models. The R1 linkage also goes through the frame. To complete this mod on an R1 or R6S you will need an aftermarket shift rod or rear set that support GP shift.
This is the shift rod.
For 2006 and 2007 year R6′s you will also need to shave a tad bit off the middle fairing to have it fit correctly.
You will need a 10mm wrench for this modification.
Directions
1. Disconnect the 10mm bolt that connects the shift linkage to the transmission and remove it.
2. Pull the linkage off the rod and turn it 180 degrees.
3. Reattach the linkage, being sure to retighten the bolt.
TADA! Completo! Bravo!
There is no real downside to this modification. Another great mod in conjunction with this is rear sets. I recommend the Giles Rearsets because they save 2 lbs and have 13 position settings as well as accomodate the GP shift mod.

Hi, I’m a professional pianist and I’ve built a stupid rule that permits me to take a 15 min break every single 1 hour of practicing. Now, every break I have to perform something totally different, so mostly I go to Google and seek to the recommended last hour blog. It is fun to accomplish one thing distinct and to discover about new things each and every single day. BTW, now I’m playing. HandelHaydn. Your website is great, I wish I could remain longer, but We have to get back to play… Up coming time I’ll occur to visit again.
When I recently discovered your website and started following along, I had been thinking I’d post my very first comment. I don’t know just what to say except that I truly liked reading through. Good writings. I will carry on visiting this website a lot more frequently.
I can see you are an expert at your field! I am launching a website soon, and your details will likely be quite useful for me.. Thanks for all your help and wishing you all the success.
I should say, as much as I loved reading what you had to convey, I couldnt help but lose interest after a while. Its as if you had a good grasp on the matter, but you forgot to include your readers. Maybe you should think of this from more than one position. Or probably you should not generalise so much. It’s better if you think of what other people may have to say as opposed to just going for the gut reaction to the topic. Consider modifying your own notion process and giving others who might browse this the benefit of the doubt.
Cool, there are truly some great issues on this write-up a number of my readers might find this useful, I am going to post a link, thanks.
