A picture of the track bodywork loosely fitted.

That looks great! Are those white decals or is that just reflections?

We need higher quality pics!

I will miss the R1 for the first 20 seconds on track then I will never give it a second though.
Treat your bikes like you treat your women smile

I reckon that'll be superb on track. Unbelievably neutral and competent bikes - like a 600RR on steroids. Last and bestest of the analogue superbikes.

Shirley they will need the ting tang reluctor ring thingies.

The two pages of A4 how to bleed the brakes / how to waste 2 hours / was that 3 flashes or 4? when you fit braided lines to the sodding things differs from year to year, so probably not.

I presume he meant discs from an 09 abs model

You might find the reluctor rings are separate items from the discs. Otherwise you'd need 2 different discs just for the front.
Probably a good bet the discs are a common item though

Cheers Mr Blokey.
No worries mate, as Steve says, you need the traction ring/abs reducter (it's EXACTLY the same part as the hrc kit traction ring, as are the speed sensors)


So 09 and wheels will bosh straight in (funnily enough so will the rear wheel right the way back to the 929...)
