  1. Thanks I'll contact Dave... I've tried getting this message to Ohlins, but never recieved any reply. I appreciate your time...
  2. Can anyone let me know as accurately as possible if the 07/08 Rear Ohlins TTX can be retrofit to an 05/06 model 6R/RR? I know there are many interchangeable parts. Any help or info is greatly appreciated.
  3. Ok Cobie, here are some better pics, please give your opinion on the body positioning please... http://cs.kawiforums.com/cs/view/org/31363...B505C61457A.jpg http://cs.kawiforums.com/cs/view/org/31363...B505C61457A.jpg http://cs.kawiforums.com/cs/view/org/31363...B505C61457A.jpg http://cs.kawiforums.com/cs/view/org/31363...B505C61457A.jpg
  4. It's really hard to explain without talking to a person face to face. Thanks for trying to answer it, I'm sure among all the questions asked it can get tedious at times. It's good to know about what style you guys usually focus on at the school. Knowing that less lean angle = more speed, and more contact patch. I was was basically enquiring as to which one of the styles would require a rider to lean more, and/or therefore limit the corner speed. By asking about angles, I was trying to figure out the average lean angle of these varrying styles. Like which one would average more lean angle, and require more depth to touch the knee down, and therefore slow a rider down more, also may be more detrimental to tire life I guess my best bet is to come to school, which I plan to do later this year, and have it all explained then. Thanks again.
  5. Thanx for your response, I appreciate it, but I think I worded my question incorrectly... I'm not too concerned about getting my knee down. I have done it before. It still has to do with the very first question above about lean technique, and angle. What I'm wondering is if each distinct style requires different lean anlge. Like if you had a person of the same dimensions (height/weight), With each of these styles, would the degree on lean angle where the knee touched down be the same. Or, would each riding style constitute differences in lean angle? Hope this makes more sense...
  6. Ok so here's a question on Lean angle and technique. I'm falling into a corner here the pic is taken at 38degrees. The redline represents the max lean angle of 48 degrees for these tires. Can you gather from this pic whether position is correct? And at what point (in degrees) should a rider touch the knee down? Hope these questions make sense... http://cs.kawiforums.com/cs/view/org/31363...B505C61457A.jpg
  7. Do these really work and do you guys suggest them? How can you install them without getting air bubbles between them and the tank?
  8. Thanks I apprecaite the response, and what's interesting is that the top, top guys have more similarities than I originally thought. Thanks again
