This is credited to 12six.

This process is pretty easy. The directions came for every bike but the 06 R6. Just wanted to practice posting pictures, and to show off the product.

First remove the two bolts on the clamp.

Then remove the bolt holding the gas tank.

Next, install the postmount. I recommend using lock-tight.

Next is to mount, and align the damper on the baseplate.

Very nice. I had to put a 1-5/8 inch socket on a lathe and turn it down a few mm to get it to fit inside the bracket GPR supplied to get the steerting stem nut on. Overall good product though.
