Dd 2014

Started stripping the little girl down today, a few mods to be made to improve fixings etc. engine refresh to see how she looks after running her on a skinny synthetic and first purchase of suspension upgades.

Hopefully get her built back up a little earlier than I did this year.

Let me guess, Ohlins shock for the rear and possible fork internal upgrades

Dumping the Airbox and fitting a 916 tank possibly

So far my 2014 pre season prep has had more to do with emails and rule writing
But popped around Andy's (Banger San's) earlier today and borrowed his 2 into 1 conversion so I can see about getting one made for my 2014 bike

Steve if you are talking about the exhaust it should do, it mates up with the standard rear header and you just need to cut the front down pipe at the right point. Outlet wise mine is matched up to an early R6 Akraprovic but easily changed or could use a small link pipe.

How are you heeling?

Not sure it will Steve as your swingarm, suspension linkage, shock position and Rocker mount are all different and I think the rear header is slightly different.

Speaking of Exhausts Dallas's 2014 DD bike is away having a custom exhaust system made, well a couple actually one in Inconel again and a spare in that cheaper titanium stuff. Then when it returns I have to get my hands on it to build a custom wiring loom.
His forks are already back complete with with new piston kits and Springs

The way he's going I think he would like to see a 145kg minimum bike weight for Class A
