DescriptionThe whole story▼

Protecting the axles of an R6 costs less than a single fork seal and a day of labour. That is what the WAPYA411 is for: 200 g of nylon and Ergal standing between the axle of a R6 and the ground. It is offered in 6 colours: Black, Blue, Gold, Grey, Red, Silver. LighTech supplies it for the R6 complete, so no separate hardware order is needed.

Key Features

  • The screen-printed WAPYA411 shell keeps its marking after the first scuff
  • Protects the fork bottoms and swingarm ends of the R6 in a low-speed fall
  • 6 colours on the WAPYA411, all at the same price
  • 200 g for the complete WAPYA411 kit
  • Black, Blue, Gold, Grey, Red, Silver — one WAPYA411 kit, 6 ways to match the R6
  • Bolts to the standard R6 fixing points — no drilling, no adapter plates
  • No type-approval paperwork supplied with the WAPYA411 — see the approval note below

The Idea Behind It

Protection here is a matter of millimetres — the slider has to reach past the axle nut. The WAPYA411 puts the elastic material outside and the structural material inside. At 200 g the WAPYA411 is lighter than the fasteners it replaces on some machines.

Materials and Construction

LighTech moulds the outer shell of the WAPYA411 in nylon because it gives before it breaks. Inside sits a machined Ergal insert — the same alloy family LighTech uses for load-bearing parts. Replacing the insert costs a fraction of the kit, which is how it is meant to work.

Compatibility and Installation

The WAPYA411 is catalogued by LighTech for the Yamaha R6 and nothing else in this listing. Installation uses the factory fixings on the R6; the supplied hardware replaces them.

Supplied As

LighTech packs the WAPYA411 with everything the R6 axles need and nothing they do not. Spare elements for the WAPYA411 are listed separately, which keeps a repair cheap on a R6.

In the Workshop

The WAPYA411 arrives complete; no separate fastener order is required for the R6. Thread-locking compound is sensible on a R6 that sees track use. Black, Blue, Gold, Grey, Red, Silver: 6 finishes of the same WAPYA411, identical in fit on the R6.

Road Approval

There is no type-approval certificate for the WAPYA411 and we do not claim one. For a R6 with a registration plate, the fitted position is worth clarifying in advance. If the R6 is used on track only, none of this applies.
