I had them done at work (CMC Claycross) It would set you back 1200.00 for the front and 500.00 for the rear and 2 hours labour so around 1800.00 total.

how did the bike go, will it be competitive in its class?
It went great thanks! I was even a little surprised myself with what times we got down to. Pole position this year was a 146.7 and I did a few 147's but didn't get a clear lap all day to be honest. The only lesson learned was it does not have enough ground clearance so it's of to be raised a little on the back end. The picture says it all!

That's excellent you are obviously on it
I can see you haven't even dropped the forks through so ground clearance is gonna be an issue then?
has ohlins got ride height adjustment?
So you using power commander with quickshifter,is it in race shift
Yes going to have a slight lift on the rear. Move the footrest, gear lever and brake lever as they all catch. Good news is it's an easy fix.That's excellent you are obviously on it

very nice bike
I am putting my Gilles rearsets complete with gear lever and brake lever for sale. If you are interested I will let them go for £250.00 which is half price. Used twice on the track. I am struggling with ground clearance and having some new one made.

That is looking good mate , what mods are you allowed regarding engine in the class you are racing ?
You can have up to 0.85bhp per kilo. Not sure of the weight but estimated we can have up to 140bhp. No one has made a slipper clutch yet but I have someone looking into modifying the one they do for the R6.
When I had it as a road bike I just had the full Akra and power commander and it's putting out 116hp at the wheel.
We have some software coming next week to enable the removable of the top speed limiter, which will be a massive help at tracks like Donington. Also with the software you can change the system to an open loop which means we can change the base settings and re map again with a race filter and hopefully will be over 120 bhp!
We are making modifications to the air box and getting some ram air aswell which will give another 5 bhp when the bike is at full chat!
Not doing anything to the motor until we see what max bhp we can get without as I want it to be as reliable as possible.

Gone for the Val moto rear sets which are fully adjustable and should do the trick. Been waiting 3 months for them though!

Hello Liam,
I had the similar setup with your bike in general. I also managed got the ECU reflash by US a folk who able re-program the ECU to make everything smooth and linear. My bike also installed with Akry racing line full system with BMC road filter....my top speed can reach about 245km easy.
but really interest that if you could manage to get it up to more bhp with other mods...hope you may share more info. as I planned to bring this bike to join some local track race as well....
cheers,
