    Pin size for head lift size question...

    Hi Im thinking of buying the T-Rex-Racing front head lift stand and rear stand. But Im not sure what pin size I need. I read somewhere that its 28.8mm and that the pit bull one is #28S. T-Rex Racing only goes up to 27mm. Anyone know if the T-Rex Racing 27mm would fit a 1299?

    Best bike thing I've done for ages - new cheek pads and head lining

    I've ridden for quite a few hours in my current Arai helmet and it was beginning to feel a little sloppy. Last night I replaced the cheek pads and head lining and now it feels like a new helmet again. Don't know why I didn't do it sooner, I'd highly recommend doing it. :D

    1199-1299 cylinder head compatibility

    So I was doing some reading on the differences between the 1199 and 1299 engine and it looks like the 1199 and 1299 cylinders are essentially the same, same valve sizes, same valve lift. Only thing I could find is there are minor contour changes to the combustion chamber to take advantage of the...

    Better head lights for 1299 base?

    Hi, I'm deciding between the 1299 base and the 1299S. I prefer the 1299 but the lights on the 1299S are a big plus for me since I live in the country side where head lights are of great importance. Currently, I am riding the 959 which has insufficient head lights for my requirements. At...

    Head Gasket blown

    So I didn't get off to a good start with my Panigale. The bike has 2200km on the clock and last Saturday had what seemed to be a coolant blowout. The dealer came to collect the bike and informed me that the head gasket blew. A bit concerning considering that the bike wasn't running hot at any...

    Head bearing races...

    Hi all, Been searching for a while. I'm trying to remove the races from the frame on my 899. I'm unable to figure out how. Has anyone done this before? I've changed many bearings, but none without the lip that is present in a traditional head tube. Any help?

    Steering Head Ring Nut - Q&A

    Guys. Purely aesthetically I was looking at changing out the OEM one and replacing with a CNC one. I originally thought that it was just a simple unscrew out swap out screw swap in situatin but I'm now thinking that's not the case. Is it connected to bearings? Do you have to take the load off...
