howlinhoss Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Henks when you installed the shock did you mount it with the compression line on the bottom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henks Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Yep. Seemed like that was the only way fitment would be right. -Chris Central Roadracing Association #286E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henks Posted February 11, 2017 Author Share Posted February 11, 2017 Just ordered the Motion Pro 01-0094 (R6 throttle tube) and grips. Hoping for a real short throw with that tube. I'll report how it feels once I get it installed. -Chris Central Roadracing Association #286E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henks Posted February 25, 2017 Author Share Posted February 25, 2017 As it turns out, the tube I ordered has a factory defect, so I just ordered the actual Yamaha part number through Amazon. Peeled that stock grip off and put on some Motion Pro grips. Spent this morning in the garage (before running out of propane) finishing up the rearsets. All I have left to do is shorten up the line between the rear master and reservoir and those will be totally finished. Also arriving in the mail this week was my windscreen (stock R1), custom Spiegler brake lines (red line/black fitting, and main line 3" shorter), and a bikemaster lithium battery. Getting close to the end! -Chris Central Roadracing Association #286E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henks Posted March 6, 2017 Author Share Posted March 6, 2017 I dropped bodywork off at the painter's right before he went on vacation. Had to finish his engine rebuild on their second vehicle (body off on Ford Excursion), then he was going to get started. I imagine that would be any day now, if he hasn't started already. -Chris Central Roadracing Association #286E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stickshift Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 What sort of pads (brand, compound) did you go for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henks Posted March 19, 2017 Author Share Posted March 19, 2017 I went with the EBC Sintered HH pads. Not the $80 super high performance ones, but the $40 ones. -Chris Central Roadracing Association #286E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiZi Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Kendon trailers are nice choice for truck accessories but I haven't seen their lift yet. How was it? Anyway, you're build is in a great progress. Any new updates about it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How was it? Anyway, you're build is in a great progress. Any new updates about it? That lift I use is just the cheap hydraulic pump one from Harbor Freight tools. It was a lifesaver on this project. I only raced one weekend last summer, and thankfully it was the weekend AP was at the track with us. I had a few issues, including my idle being too low and the bike stalling seconds before my 2nd race of the day. We attributed the stall due to high ambient temp, and the low idle. Also having issues with my quickshifter not working, but we think that just might be the connection in the ECU plug. The bike was fantastic otherwise, I'm just really, REALLY rusty. Work, and now school, are really getting in the way of me having any sort of fun. -Chris Central Roadracing Association #286E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
