Thought some of you may appreciate this if you haven't already seen it/follow 44Teeth on YouTube.
 
I saw this. Such an amazing bike.

Anyone not subscribed to 44Teeth and/or BaronVonGrumble needs to go do so now. Some of the best motorcycle journalism/vlog content on the internet IMO.

I was talking to a guy at Phillip Island with an SL dressed in track fairings and very quick too I might add. He did the SL ride at Mugello this year and said he even got to ride Chaz Davies bike , the current 2017 . I think they only offered guys that were obviously lapping well on the SL's Chaz's biker. Bit hard to believe ? He said it was so much EASIER to ride, and was expecting a difficult time. Brakes were the stand out. Nice to be some ?
 
Excuse my ignorance: is that a "normal for racing" solution how the front wheel is pushed in place with the calipers mounted and sort of flipping in place inside the rim?
 
Interesting how they have purposefully introduced flex into the rear swing arm. No detriment to it, but I imagine the carbon swing arm of the SL is far more rigid, and while a thing of beauty and engineering is not nessicarily preffered on track?

(And before you jump all over me banging on about how MotoGP use carbon swing arms, I know, I have eyes, I'm talking about the single sided set up)
