@cchief249 Ай бұрын
It was a prototype given to me by Gray Area KTM. I never used it since they didn't put a counter-balancer on it and it would only have produced 1-2 hp gain, not worth the vibrations it would cause. Might be why they never produced it!

Depends on why the bike is eating camshafts, it could be poor hardness on the stock cams or oil starvation, or both. KTM has yet to say why and in the Failed Camshafts Facebook group, it is all speculation /opinions. I had to replace the camshafts on my 2020 790 Duke.

Amazing riding, you were flying! 2 questions- did you get a slipper clutch and if not did you feel like you needed one? I heard the back locking up under braking/downshifts. And were you happy with the gearing? Seemed long and maybe was why that R6 was getting such insane drive out of slower corners. I'm debating getting a 600RR or something else.
@cchief249 7 ай бұрын
Thanks! I did not get a slipper, although I should have due to the locking issues I was having like you say. The gearing could have been a little better maybe, but it was pretty close; that bike was just quite slow compared to everything else, it was an ‘05. Loved it, but she was an old girl. Newer CBRs I’ve heard are quite good though! Hope that helps! Cheers.

Also been in Cali long enough that I’m conditioned to their red flags, which is to stop on track to let ambulance out, so I would have just been sitting in track anyway, might as well be by him to help in any way I could. Won’t fully deny target fixation, but this was just my decision I made at that time. Good or better riders I’m not sure matters, we all know there’s a bunch of stuff that runs through our head when this stuff happens. Anyway, cheers!
