Great pics Anthony. You've really been getting them noticed since you started working w/ them.

that bike looks fabulous. Title: Re: Awesome 1098R build Post by: desmoworks on December 26, 2009, 06:59:14 PM Okay, a few more images... Some new calipers that might please those of you who though the HP calipers weren't good enough (though I think the HP calipers are incredible). These have titanium pistons though!

I've looked through this thread and the one on Ducati.MS and could not find any info on the exhaust. Did I just miss it? Title: Re: Awesome 1098R build Post by: DRKWNG on January 08, 2010, 05:18:40 AM Well, it obviously Ti. And the weld quality on the spring mounting points is more than a little nice. [thumbsup]

The bike is not done yet... we have an NCR billet Oil filler plug though as far as I know the oil sensor is staying the same. There are still a ton of things to change; several items already on the bike will be swapped out. As some of you may have noticed we upgraded from the nickel HP calipers to the SBK calipers with titanium pistons. Forks are going to be upgraded to a set of FG forks as soon as they arrive, slipper is probably getting switched out, etc... Title: Re: Awesome 1098R build Post by: desmoworks on January 08, 2010, 04:30:05 PM And yes, the exhaust is motocorse.

won't that big hose off the back slow it down on the track? [cheeky] and is that a big heavy battery on the side instead of a speedcell? ;D (damn that thing is looking good....off to buy totto ticket) Thanks, Anthony...keep the updates coming. Love it! Title: Re: Awesome 1098R build Post by: yang258 on January 27, 2010, 06:13:05 PM Wow that looks fantastic!
Great photos as well, wonder what camera that is... Title: Re: Awesome 1098R build Post by: desmoworks on January 27, 2010, 06:18:10 PM We'll definitely be adding a speedcell... still lots of work to do, just had to grab a test battery to fire it up!
Title: Re: Awesome 1098R build Post by: desmoworks on January 27, 2010, 06:18:56 PM Wow that looks fantastic! Great photos as well, wonder what camera that is... It's a cannon xti. Video was done on my iPhone though [thumbsup] Title: Re: Awesome 1098R build Post by: sbrguy on January 27, 2010, 06:25:26 PM i realize this has a lot of bling and such and made of lighter materials, and it looks very good and the craftsmanship shows through so that is good.
but my question is what is the end point? how much lighter are you predicting this bike to be than stock after doing all this? are you dropping say 20-30% of the wet weight fo the bike? also what is the prediction of the increase in power from the engine, etc? i'd like to hear the prediction of what the improvements will be before they actually weigh the thing and put it on a dyno to see who comes closest. Title: Re: Awesome 1098R build Post by: desmoworks on January 27, 2010, 06:36:11 PM The end point is to simply build a bike that the customer likes... [thumbsup]
We've never built a 1098R to this level so we don't know what the outcome will be with regards to weight loss and power increase. We'll know before long though. Title: Re: Awesome 1098R build Post by: RVA Duc on January 27, 2010, 07:01:56 PM the welds on the exhaust are make the beast with two backsing gorgeous!! [thumbsup] +1 wow :o Title: Re: Awesome 1098R build Post by: sbrguy on January 27, 2010, 08:25:49 PM ok my prediction is 35 lbs lighter with all the mods, and the dyno at the wheel is going to put out 5% more than stock 1098r.

Title: Re: Awesome 1098R build Post by: sbrguy on February 01, 2010, 05:55:26 AM exactly we are going with the price is right format with the weight loss lbs and also the dyno % improvment over a stock 1098r.
this is going to be cool to hear wihat the real numbers are when all is said and done. Title: Re: Awesome 1098R build Post by: He Man on February 01, 2010, 06:54:49 AM In the true price is right style of shafting your competitors, 51lbs ;D ...... [laugh] |
