Had a go at smartening up the cockpit area. Started off a couple of weeks ago when I managed to get the 1299 mag dash support for a bargain off eBay. Then got my hands on an Ohlins damper and some integrated MotoCorse reservoirs. Thanks to Steve @Conquest Racing Ltd for the speedy delivery.
The damper was a right pita for fit. The std damper wasn’t parallel to the dash with the bars straight but the Ohlins was even further off.
Bettes, please PM me regarding the 959 download. Most problems occur because the download process on some PCs particularly Macs, truncate the file extension. If you rename the downloaded file with the extension .pdf then you should be able to open it with no issues. If the issue is you not being able to download it in the first place please let me know and I will send you a direct link. Over 200 downloads to date for that particular file with no errors so I would be interested to know the exact problem. Regards...Topo
Spent the afternoon fitting the vertical mag valve cover and 1299 rear sub frame. Can’t understand why they made the 899/959 steel sub frame in such a way that prevents it from swinging up which makes working on the rear exhaust / heat shield so much easier.
I refer my good friend to post #1, specifically Thank god you ignored your own sage words Ian. Love it.
Cedar court at 9 ish? On to Squires? Not too many, maybe 10 miles or so, started to get a bit chilly.
@bettes what issues if any did you have mating the rear of tank to 1299 subframe? Unless you’ve put an 1199 tank on! TIA
