Don't shoot the messenger. They sell this set up and the kit without the two long bolts. The bolts are obviously not used on the 1299 so I have a bunch of them. I assumed they were for the adjustable thingy on the R.

No shooting at all :) :)
Cool that you mentioned the kit.
For me the kit was actually great: I could satisfy the Ti hunger of both the SL and the Tricolore.
I wrote PodiumRacing about a year ago to change their kit content. Never got any response.

My bad I meant the new 1299SL which comes with titanium pivot bolts and pictures show no center bolt or cam adjustment so must be fixed. Not sure about the old SL maybe it's the same as R like you mentioned. I do know the 14, 15 and 16 R have the adjustable pivot older R's don't.



Nope, SL has same pivot as R
 
The crazy thing is even if the two smaller skinny bolts are used on a current R it has no compatibility with the adjustable pivot parts so pretty confusing for sure.

Have a feeling they only made the R version for the 2013 only since there was not a R in 12.

We just need to be careful assuming things and then stating on here what looks to be fact. People then go and buy something which turns out to be wrong.
Ed you normally post pretty good info so people may not check.

Remember the old saying when you assume you make an ... out of u and me

:)
 
Here is a bad pic of the kit

So Ed just to clarify. What bike is that kit actually for ? Is that for models with the adjustable swing arm, as in the R models ?
