Part 3
Not watched/had time.
What's the brand of triple clamp? Was it built following finite metallurgy stress and flex modeling? Has it changed the rake and trail?
...or did they just carve a pretty shape out of an alloy...

It's a well known product apparently
The money being spent on that build blows my tiny mind. Incredible.
Also made me wonder why they don't just start with the frame and engine, rather than buying a whole bike, since it seems everything else is being replaced anyway.

I would imagine it comes down to waiting time to get a new bike vs. getting frame+engine. Maybe they didn't want to wait.
Re $$, if you saw P Hickman bike at Excel, you wouldn't be that surprised. WSBK spec costs about 40-50k gbp
Least they can sell the oem parts

I'm actually surprised it is that low. Way beyond what I'd spend or could justify though. Maybe if I was 1/10th as good as Hicky!
Problem is its going to be double that with spares + its every 12m.
44Teeth did a vid with MotoRapido to understand the costs of BSB.

thats way off tbh,for a WSBK spec bike,you can triple that,or double it for a BSB sbk spec,s/stock will be around 45-50k
engine would be 20k minimum!!

Great series and not a "fricken awesome" in sight as in the annoying Jaret Campisi. Be great to see it going through set-up at the track
Brakes exhaust and more today and those evo calipers!! yummy
