Looking good mate,lots of subtle mods and great spec,crying out for a mag clutch cover,Fullsix carbon oversize tank looks stunning as does there rear subframe,ceramic coat the exhaust.screen looks to black but thats being picky.
Thanks mate, yeah mag cover and carbon tank are next on the list, get what your saying about the screen and I agree know it's back together The subframe and exhaust aren't coated there carbon fibre but the pics don't show it very well, in the flesh they look much better
Yea Carbon never shows up well in photos,especially carbon rims,this 959 JHP built is one of the best i have seen,note the oversize tank the shape looks great in real life and lets not forget the pierbon swingarm.
Lovely project . Why did you choose to go to 330mm discs from the standard 320mm ? I'm currently having the conversation with MR to go from 330 to 320 on my 1098R. Although a small difference, you've got lower rotating mass and less gyroscopic affect on steering and I've got dibs on a pair of 6mm 320 race discs :Bag:. Andy
I wanted 1199 stopping power, if I'm honest I was feed up with being out braked by my mate on his 1199 on road and track. It's not quite as good but it's a lot better then it was and with the bst wheels I didn't think the extra weight would be noticeable really
I use Brembo SC compound in my M4s and with the billet master cylinder there is no lack of stopping power. Use the same compound on the 853 with the 748R 4 pad caliper and the billet master cylinder. Andy
Not the favourite for some but I really like their overall performance and much more feel and progressive that the full RCs which I found took too long to heat up and don't keep the heat. Andy
