So I picked up this '19 M-sport

[Rallolainen]

Not had any issues with the TPMS but I can turn off the warnings on my '23 through the menu.

Do you use the TPMS for track riding?

I think it could be beneficial to know pressures realtime. Especially when getting to know tyres.

The throttle reduction is nice, helps you get to WOT faster. Still progressive enough.

Sure @TheGodfather we believe you

True I tell the.
Straight swap for a brand new track prepped R7

Nope. Not sure the OZ's I have fitted have the sensors.

Oooh giz a go mate

Got cadwell and Oulton booked for a try out

 

[Rallolainen]

Installed some spacers to take up the slop in the rear wheel drive.

Just finished mocking up L74 quick change kit and I managed to get the OEM brake line coming from the ABS (keeping ABS for now) on the rear caliper.
I now need to make or find a tool for bending the banjo without marring it to badly. Any suggestions?

 

[Rallolainen]

Managed to move the bike close to my vice and massaged the fitting so it now sits like this.


Next will be to shorten the bolts on the drive because of interference with the L74 plate.

What happens if you use a longer chain or if you change the gearing and the wheelbase goes out, can your brake hose stretch to accommodate?

Good point!

I tried running the lightech adjusters through the full range of motion and towards the last few mm the hose got a bit too tight for my taste.
Making a small notch in the plastic tray underneath the ABS pump got it better and after playing around with the routing it's got full range. The hose is long enough, but not the way it is routed from the factory (zip tied to the frame).

You need to check the length of the rear brake line against the full movement of the swingarm to make sure that it’s long enough. You can’t do that using a normal paddock stand. Use a footrest stand and then you can move the swingarm up and down fully. If the line is too short it will restrict movement.

Looks to have plenty of slack with the alternative routing, but I'll do a check once I get it on the correct stands.



Studs got trimmed flush with the nuts, those will be changed for new ones when 520 chain and sprockets go on.
Beveled the edge on the brake pads and the wheel goes in without hesitation at all.
Very impressed with the quick change kit so far.
