Beginners Race Kit - For 08-16 Yamaha R6

For 08-16 Yamaha R6

Get racing now! This kit has the basic items you'll need to go from trackday enthusiast to racer.

You've already got your exhaust, frame sliders, rear sets and stainless steel braided brake lines for track days, with this kit you can now take the next step and go racing for the lowest possible cost.

Kit includes:

• Hotbodies race fairings
• Vortex right and left engine case covers
• Maxima Cool-Aide glycol-free engine coolant
• Safety wire and pliers
• Safety wire drill guide

(Items may be shipped from multiple warehouses)

Hotbodies race fairings are made for racers on a budget. Lightweight and ultra-flexible with aramid reinforced mounting areas for strength. They feature an automotive grade primer which needs just minor prep before painting. Includes upper, lower, front fender, tail & undertail pieces.
*Fitment Notice: This Race bodywork does NOT work with the stock exhaust headers/catalytic converter and may not work with some Leo Vince exhausts or Yoshimura Full Systems.

If you've ever low sided and had a bag of quick dry and broom shoved into your hands you know the importance of case covers. Many organizations recommend them and at the top level they are required for all models. The R6 in particular is vulnerable to leaking oil in low side crashes. The Vortex case covers are aluminum and bolt right over the OEM cases for the cheapest solution.

Anti-freeze contains glycol, which makes anti-freeze a very slippery liquid. Slippery liquid on a race track is obviously very bad for racing. All organizations ban coolant containing glycol. Maxima Cool-Aide is glycol free and comes in a pre-mixed ready to pour 64 fl oz container.
*Caution: Cool-Aide is made up primarily of water, if freezing temperatures are encountered it will freeze in your engine (that's really bad). Make sure to drain your coolant for winter storage.

Another safety requirement is safety wiring. Bolts, oil filters, fill caps etc all need to be safety wired. This kit has 25' of safety wire, safety wire pliers and two different drill guides to make the job easier. Consult the rules and regulations for your race organization to see exactly what needs to be safety wired.

The retail price of this kit is over $950.
