A set up ride does not need a bandaide.

Save your money unless your riding fast canyons or the track. Everyday riding doesn't really require one in my opinion.

I have the GPR V4 mount brackets for an 07-08 ZX6R. $80 shipped. You'll just have to buy a V4 damper.

I just mentioned that omalley just because yes, the stock oem pos according to most opinions on dampers is still on my 10r. Get comfy on what you have and get the gal set up. I agree on putting your money where that rider may need it.
