Well after a long night last night, I've got the bike back for the intrim..
A huge thanks for Rod @ Melb Motorcyle Fairings for offering to fit up the race glass for me.
The race glass and rear sets are from Wet4U. Thankfully I didn't have to run 98-99 model glass
And a big thanks to Groggles for helping me to bike transportation.
After abit of adjusting the rear sets are on. I thought i'd go reversed gearing and see how that works for me, so fingers crossed.
The to do/buy list:
Air duct
Spare tank (GREEN)
Spray the bloody thing... GREEN of course...
Maybe a Pitty Race Rep... MMmm

Put a BIG sticker on the tank / inner fairing / somwhere........that says
DOWN for UP !!!!
If you haven't ridden with a race-shift before, its *real* easy to forget this.....
the bike looks great mate, I am looking forward to pictures of your Pittie Replica...

It was interesting to read in AMCN that Chris Vermeulen uses a standard road pattern for his MotoGP bike

I run a standard road pattern on the RD. I've been caught out a few times, with the foot under the lever, but spending so much time on the work bike makes running a race pattern too confusing for my miniscule brain.
