one would hope its not as it looks like a Performance Bikes 999/998 readers special but with what looks like the datalogger taped to rear and fork potentiometer suggest it is a test rig

The masking tape is used to disguise the final design, and extra lumps and bumps can be added underneath to make it look like something else. It ceratinly looks like a prototype, and that swingarm is not standard 916 given the way the chain goes through it ... just like a 999.

The duct tape is just because this is Setes bike from the weekend and its the only way they could hold it together...

Seriously though first impressions on this are better than I had for the 999....
