Some nice parts on there. Did you touch the engine?

Bought off Dallas in 2007 after he didn't get on with it as a race bike
I decided to put it back on the road, the forks and yokes have gone to my 955 as have the corse footpegs and race radiator, the 6-pot APs and discs are going on to my 998 Hybrid.

The engine has been apart and had new bearings, blue printed and balanced along with a Corse gerbox fitted.

The 63.mm system has gone as I thought it over kill for a road bike and its been replaced with a 54mm system

The FIM ECU remains as does the MT940 dash, techtronics quick shifter, AP Brake Master cylinder but not the clutch one which has been replaced with a Brembo Billet clutch M/cyl. Mag arm, linkage and matching Ohlins shock remain as do the mag wheels.

When I get the correct caliper mouning plates for the Ohlins R&T forks the narrow track front wheel and Brembo race discs will be fitted along with the Billet Radial AP calipers but currently I have had to fit standard front wheel and discs with 4-pad calipers as I hope to be taking it to the Cadwell trackday in a weeks time
