Well had the R6 out recently and the front end just didn't feel right. Ended up needing to replace the front wheel bearings. Had a heck of a time getting them out as there really wasn't anything to grab a hold:

How to shorten RS2 Pipe
So I've wanted to shorten my RS2 for a while now. I found several people who have done it, but very little information about it. It's not exactly straight forward either if you do it right, so I figured I'd post up some pictures of it.
