How To Turn A 999 Into A Sport Classic

Of course, just much easier to know what your aiming for. Pop into the DRO and let the chips fly

 

Lovely piece of kit that, would love to have my own machinery at some point. Unfortunately they're rather large!

 

To the next problem, I'm going to guess that the different swingarms have different lower shock bolts as well?

 

You sir.. are a gentleman

 

Or a bit of powdercoating where it shouldn't have been......

 

Yeah it was a bit of Powdercoating in the hole not letting the bolt go any further, all sorted after much swearing

 

Quite similar to higher end track fairings, but for the money they're quite good. I would definitely go for them again. Although the screen they sell for the SC kit is really low quality, looking to go oem on that when one pops up

 

I can't really remember if I'm honest, but I would have remembered if it was badly done, but I'd go for it. I've recommended them to friends before

 

Bad news again...


Popped the shock in the damper Dyno to see how it was doing and it's all over the place, Sticking rebound needle primarily. I don't have the needle kit to pressurise it nor do I want to buy one so it'll get send away for a rebuild. Bit gutted as I'd quite like to see what's wrong!

 

And here she is;

147 engine and 131 at the wheel, lost 4 hp with that exhaust which is to be expected, long term I'd really like to make a titanium system for it but I'm in no rush, it's time to enjoy it and get her dirty.

Shock has also been rebuilt and tested, I'll upload the geometry and driving force stuff later.
