Nice photos! Wish I could ride...last few days has been rainfall raining in CA....

One day we are asking for rain, next thing we are flooding!

Thanks...We need rain here as well, got a storm last night, but good today...March will probably be flooding time for us, then the dry season....have to work 16 days straight now so can only go for a quick ride in the mornings.

Don't feel bad. My washing machine died so I wasn't able to work on the Anni yesterday. Next Sunday I guess. Such a waste having to waste toy money on household necessities.
 
Wallaroo any feedback on how the CNC rearsets are working out. I'm curious about the shift action. Play/flex, lever throw distance ?

When I first put them on it took a bit to dial them in. Sometimes during hard ecceleration it didnt go up a gear, so I got that sorted, now even if I am a bit tired and lazy it will. everything else is great and i am really impressed with them.

I have been Chatting with Ben Henry who is TB's business partner and he said bring the bike in and he will set it up like their race bikes with a faster response in shift times, also the ride height so it will be more nimble, once I get those things done PI here I come :D

That's great to hear. I've been going back and forth between DP and CNC. They both offer the options I'm looking for. I've leaning towards the silver/black CNC.

Sounds like your suspension will be getting setup properly. PI should be a ball. The biggest change my suspension guy did for me was two more turns of preload added to the forks. Left the rear preload alone. Can't wait to hit the track this year.

I would go the CNC ones, I am sure you will really like them.

I am only 10km's from Lakeside track, which is pretty much closed down except for a few odd events, double up with Troy and track days, but i want to take this bike to a track I really know and that is PI has I have ridden it a fair few times.

Cant be to long now and you should out on track....mid to the end of spring ??

First WMRRA race is in April. If it's not raining I'll take it out during the lunch break. I've set my first track day for July hoping things will be dry by then.
 
Finally got to put these Sub frame covers on from Fullsix. They were really easy didnt have to remove a thing, just made up some clips out of clothes pegs and used the frame plugs as well to hold them on....got a big ride on Sunday so it will be good to see if they stop any heat.

We have a few pot holes around this area at the moment, thanks to cyclone Debbie....Yep Debbie does Australia :D

A morning at our starbucks, up the hill through some awesome twisties.

The more I ride this bike the more I love it, everything is slowly starting to bed in and become smoother.
I have not found the lower revs to much of a problem in traffic, but it will be interesting to see how much a difference the rapid bike makes. I have already fitted the MWR air filter, so wouldnt know if that made any difference.

I have put the Rapidbike on my bike, I have to say the torque in 1st and esp 2nd gear is unreal. The bike is way smoother and I love the fact that it self tunes the bike.

I would definitely highly recommend the cnc rearset. IMO they are the best looking out there and also highly adjustable. They are a bit $$$ but worth it

Looking good.....I still have my seat cover to go on yet, I just covered the 1199R with a Ducati Corse badge.

Managed to fit the CNC Rear brake reservoir today as well, might do the Moto Corse clutch and front brake tomorrow if I feel like taking the front fairing off :(

Was that a Fullsix piece ?? I had to send the key lock cover back because it was the wrong weave, but all good now.

I see Mad Mike finished 5th on the time sheets and only .5 off the leader on the Pani...going to be a interesting race, good to see a young Aussie doing well.

What heat ??? LOL :)
 
Look Guy's I am with you on the heat, If you are stuck at traffic lights it gets a little toasty in Jeans and I find if you sit right back on the seat it flows past and if you are wringing it's neck.....what heat !!!

I find the thought of putting on my leather jacket and sweating it out in this humidity more of a problem than the heat from this bike...Wouldnt trade it for the world :D
