R6R fork bushings Help - CT Mike - 12-30-2011

I went to go an put a new set of seals in on my R6 forks, (Running the R6R forks on the R6s) and noticed one of the bushing was starting to get worn. So i hammered out both top and bottom bushing in the outter tube. When to go look on bikebandit micro. to see what the part numbers were and I cant seem to find any info on ordering bushings for the forks. Am i fucked and there part of the outter tube and i have to order an enitre new one? or am i just not seeing this? Has anyone ever done this before, i cant seem to find any info on changing these things also

i've never had to change bushings on a r6 fork before, i'd suggest calling a suspension shop like ohlins, ESP, RG3 ect and pick their brain.

I would hit up RaceTech.

well just updating if anyone thread digs this, what i found out is that you cannot buy the bushings from yamaha. They designed it that you need to buy the entire outter tube at a price of 225. Thats just fucking retarded, you can buy the lower bushing from racetech but not the upper one. Ended up getting a new upper tube from yamaha cause i new the tech there and he hooked it up for 185.0 still way to much money if some bushing are shot.
