1098 1098r Subframe

Discussion in '848 / 1098 / 1198' started by Ozz, Jul 14, 2014.

  1. A mate is possibly looking at going down from an 1199 back to a 1098 but the R version.

    One problem he has come up with though is that the subframe on the R appears to be the single seat one and so does not have the passenger footpeg points and therefore he could not fit a Ventura rack to it.

    I suggested that he could buy a 1098 or 1098S rear subframe which appear to be about £100 on Ebay and just fit that, hey presto.

    Anyone know of any problems with that idea?
     
  2. Yep, I wouldn't say it's going down. Indeed, it's going up :)
     
  3. Well no but more going older!
     
    • Thanks Thanks x 1
  4. he can swap his fancy 1098R one with mine of my 1198. No charge. :)
     
  5. The 1098R subframe is a pain really. The 1098R carbon tail unit is uber nice, but the DP carbon tail unit is more practical - especially if wanting to carry luggage etc.
     
  6. I'll let him know!
