If I had lots of spare cash I'd get the 848 in white. Hotness.

You talking about the Ducati 848, little bro to the 1098?? They look like a pretty decent setup from what i've read. Very similar to the 1098..

Here's mine by the way next to a mates GSXR750..

How did the 1098S go? There is one for sale on on bike sales, 3,000kms for $26,000... So tempted to buy it...

the 1098 is nice but no match with my K6 - 1098 claimed hp is about 20hp less than that of the gsxr.

its like comparing a ferrari to a gtr...look great but gtr will hose it in almost every aspect in terms of performance

Yeh, I've read that in a few magazines... a bit of a shame. They are bringing out a 1098R which is mean to have around 180hp if I remember correctly.

well the 1098s is 36k with 160hp - any late model jap bike is 15-20k with 180hp!

the r model will be about 50k with 180hp if its lucky, they are still heavire than the jap bike!

i.e. k6 = 160kg whereas the 1098 id 171kg & ducati is still more than 3 times that of a jap bike

well u cant look at it like that, a duke is a vtwin as u know, theyre torque is much higher than that of ne of our bikes factory, in saying that, rwhp figure is not a comparison, its how fast the bike laps the track or the 0-100 100-200 0- 400m and so on, a duke is a throw around bike where most 4cylinder bikes lean for u... it all comes down to personnal prefferance and how well u can ride the bike, for example, Bayliss = Ducati Stoner = Ducati both worked bikes yes but stock or not they are proven to be much more quicker down the str8 than ne other jap bike. id like to see Rossi on a duke tbh

yes well the ducati is dominating the moto gp for the 1st time ever - good to see something different.

if its got 2 wheels i luv it

I think I'm going to upgrade to a CBR600RR or a R6

Use the Babyblade for the trackdays..

When you realise how slow and crap the CBR250 is compared to the CBR600/R6s etc, I doubt you'll want to use it on the track......

Got on a cbr600rr today $15,000 for a 07 model omg *drools* I want one! The R6's seem funny the cbr is a lot nicer.. Nearly fixed my cbr up to good standards.. Few more time, parts and tlc.

The 600 weighs the same as my 250. more sexy too!

so jealsous right now

Man my regulator rectifier has crapped out on me :banana: so upset.. I want to go for a ride but the battery is on charge too!

other then that everything else is fixed :blush:

so jealsous right now

I'm telling you now!!!! CBR600RR FTW!!!! Stuff the R6..

You're just jealous..

650 bah, need at least 1200 to have fun... j/k. I could probably be happy with the right 600 but right now the 1200 is too much fun.

How does everyone feel about the 19th or 20th of Jan for our SAU bike cruise?

That sounds ok pending that my bike is working.. and If I'm still in NSW

Anyone wanna sell me a VTR 1000 Regulator rectifier?

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
