Mark will see you right.

Same here, R6 shock. need to take some material of the swing arm else you have no sag as it all necks out.

Look I don't need glasses. You and my Mrs are both wrong. There's nothing wrong with my eye sight.

There's no detail om that block for the quad rings around the studs, that and the rocker shaft blanks being drilled for banjo bolts suggest the motor is design for external oil lines.
-
As I said. I have data that proves they are effective.
-
That's a serious engine. Make sure you run the external oil feeds as the stock feeds around the studs are deleted, and check what cams are in it. The cams look very aggressive, if they are Web drag race grind, they'll last about 100miles on the street.

Look at the oil cooled race bikes from back in the day, the had huge coolers, often multiples on the cylinder head cooling circuit. They prioritised the cooling of the cylinder head circuit over the main pressure side. My slabbie race bike with a stock 1127cc motor, would get significantly slower on the straights over the course of a 7-8 lap race, the data logger showed this clearly. Fitted a cooler to the head circuit in the front of the fairing, and the problem went away.

Yikes, there's some "History" under that paint.

Sorry dude, it was an assumption on my part, not sure why else you would off set the pad material like that. I've seen it done before for the reason suggested.
-
Genuine Brembo pads?
-
It's so the pad doesn't wear tapered. the trailing pad material runs hotter so wears more quickly, which is why you normally have different size pistons on multi piston calipers. Brembo either got their piston sizes wrong, or more likely realised the calipers would be cheaper to produce with one size piston and off set the pad material instead.
-
Pads are mixed up. larger bit of friction material should be on the trailing piston.

Nah the wheels are anodized. The were blastead and badly painted when I got them. I had them stripped, lightly bead blasted the re-anodized, hence ethe anodized rivets.
