Does anyone know where to get those EXACT rims from?

Am I the only one that is a bit disappointed? I mean, it's a normal 1299S with a slipon, different colours and a dtc tweak. Am I missing something?
Anyone knows if the upgraded TC can be uploaded to current 1299S? It seems to be a software update only (new algorithm), using the current and unchanged Bosch IMU. From my (very limited) understanding, I don't see a reason why it could not be added to all 1299S?
Would be great to have this on track! Level 1 sounds pretty amazing. I always wanted to pull off some power slides at corner exit but I'm too much of a ..... not wanting to risk a high sider
I won't be buying one, but I wouldn't say I'm disappointed. You guys realize it's only $3500 more than a normal S right? I think the Akra, wheels, and updates are worth that.
They weren't shooting for a whole new model here. Wasn't the Tri roughly the same amount more when it came out? Nobody bitched then.
This is the point. It's got a lithium ion battery and some carbon pieces, so it's 5 pounds lighter than the S. It's got a really attractive graphic scheme. It comes with an Akra ti slip-on, mirror blockoffs and a license plate holder blockoff. It's got Pani R geometry up front due to billet steering head inserts. And it's numbered, with a billet top triple clamp like the SL.
That's not too bad for $3,500 more, is it? I left off the DTC and DWC EVO because they're irrelevant for a pricing comparison (since other 1299s can be flashed with them), but it's got those too.
Welcome back TJ99!!!!
Many thanks for the info! I wrote to two dealers in Switzerland, but didn't get any response at all
Would love to get this bike...
Yes, the DTC and DWC EVO systems can be flashed to the current 1299/S, with the exception of the Japan-market bike, that can't be flashed. Also the Panigale R cannot be flashed to the new systems.
