I'm not that stupid lol.

They won't ship interstate because of the "transport of dangerous good" excuse.

Charlie looked a bit better on the back of mine :/

This is what happens when you ride motards for too long

I'd be too scared of doing this with a 200hp bike:

Although I do like the look of the R1.. very much so.

Try this guy, I bought my spray can from him. Think he has tins in stock too if i remember correctly.

thanks!

Solid mounts: yes or nor(reasons supporting why not)

Haha don't kid yourself, similar shit will happen on any bike you ride. We can still hit the bike tracks :P

Which year R1 do you prefer?

Yeah true, still laughing over that night.. that push biker thinking wtf is a R1 doing on the bike track? lol

I'd go for a 08 or newer, like both shapes but wouldnt want to spend much over 10 if I go down that path so would limit me to an 08 all are great bikes though. Apparently the newer engine has better power delivery (or so my friend with a 2011 says) he loves shenanigans too.. often jerks himself off while going past bus stops with people waiting lol.. they get mad and I /wave at them

Haha I wanna go back there but also want to preserve option notice until November...somehow I reckon they'd break the notice if they caught me.

Haven't ridden the new one so can't comment on power delivery, it is slightly down on power or torque though, compared to my engine. Ever so slightly slower in a straight line too, but I'm sure the power delivery different makes up for it. Mine doesn't really come alive until 5k-6k.

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
