  7. I know. The hm one I have only fits the 3 pin plug top coils mine has older 2pin now :-( lots of road shift ones for 2pin but no race shift.

  11. Funky, I maybe be able to make use of that on the 1198 thing I am running. If you may part with it can you send me the model number so I can check with HM if it will be a viable unit.

  12. it was 1st session after lunch on day 3, only about 10 out on track and those that were out were running very slowly so i easily found some space :)

    bradders- i cannot not invert the shifter linkage on the 998, on the 1098/1198/848 its fairly easy to do but on the 998 the rod fouls the engine casing. someone please correct me if im wrong

    cranker. it will fit your bike (its the hm lever v2 ) as long as it has the 3 pin plug top coils (which all late 998. all 749/999/1098 , im not 100% sure if im selling yet as might use it on another bike)

  13. its a tricky track. trying to carry momentum through the infield section requires lots of attention and you need to be patient with the gas which can be frustrating

  15. ...Or here's how not to try out brake someone who has passed you even before the last gantry.

    eitherway. fucking spectacular
     
    #35 Mr C, May 13, 2014
  16. fuck no wonder its destroyed, and that the R1 rider is pissed..
     
    #36 bradders, May 13, 2014
  17. hmm, i reckon we will have to agree to differ on that one Mr C.

    Agree it was very spectacular & terrifying. between the bike bouncing like a rugby ball, the rider rolling around and the debris shower coming towards me at 100+ MPH for a few moments i wasn't sure how it was going to end up for me and my bike

  18. how could he have tried to out brake him when the overtaking bike was right in front of him. My guess panic brake and locked front if he didn't run into passing bike
     
    #38 bradders, May 13, 2014
  19. R1 ran into back of other bike while hard on the brakes, it spat the front wheel up into seat unit of other bike and cracked it. this is likely what caused the bike to flip like that
     
    #39 funkatronic, May 13, 2014
  20. I have a clear view from that. Not for me to comment, wasn't there.
