Hi all. Got through and completed my IMU installation a couple of week sur ago on my 2015 R, i.e., reinstall my IMU after having fitted a 1299 glass/Kevlar race fairing and matching larger race front air duct from Ricambi (all head light assembly removed). Ran the bike at the track the following week and all systems a go ����, meaning, the IMU worked great, reading and displaying real time data and recording lap min and max angles off the lap timer system, etc.
Bottom line? The 2015 R and the 1299s share the same IMU part # and position it in an identical location and attitude (on bike centerline Behring the head light assemble while pitched forward at a 45degree angle). But this is where the similarities of the 2 hikes stop (as far as the IMU installation goes). As the R is using incandescent light technology while the 1299 uses LED, the configuration of the light assembly behind the light (where the IMU installs are different and hence, both bike use different types of brackets and hardware to install the IMU on the respective bikes. I used the Ricambi IMU platform bracket designed for the 1299 so I had to purchase the 1299 IMU mounting bracket with its hardware from Ducati. Coupling the Ricambi bracket with1299 OEM hardware and some hardware and bushes allowed me to complete the installation and sit the IMU in the exact location and attitude.
Look good and works great.
So there, u have it, or at least, my solution.
