I was hoping we could start a trackday/race picture thread like the superbike picture thread. I am curious to see what some of your bikes look like in race track trim or street trim on a track. I am hoping to get some track bodywork for my 999 and I figured a thread like this could be good inspiration and eye candy for anyone interested in trackdays. Maybe if this thread takes off we could sticky it?
That's a racing (no side stand, no lights, closed belly pan) body kit I got via eBay from France. It's actually for the '03-'04 bikes but it was almost half the price of the '05-'06 bodykit and it fitted with no problems at all (just had to make new holes to the screen because the newer style had the holes differently, very easy to do). And the only difference are the front air ducts, 2 for the newer vs 4 for the earlier model (I like the earlier style better too )
As for the tail, I got it from Germany, it's identical to the DP part but almost half the price. All the parts are fiberglass.
My bodywork is Sebimoto I think. Sucks. I lost the left hand fairing during a race because it just broke where the bolts fit. But to be fair I have to say it was not new (as you can see ).
Go with Shark skins Body work. I have seen the rest but the best is SharkSkins.
A bit pricey but for a reason. They crash great, paint great and fit great!
great pics guys!!!, i dont have any digital pics of me on my old 996 when i raced that so here is a pic of me on my current race/track bike a 2001 h**a rs125. My 999 is street duty only for now.
Thanks Ben, I like that shot too . It might not be visible, but I was actually struggling for grip at the time , was testing my entry/exit line in those couple of corners and I was going on the "dirty" part of the track for a couple of laps :crazy:.

If I'm not wrong you got BrakeTech's rotors in the front, right ? What calipers+pads are you running ? The rotors are Iron or SS ? How do you like the setup you have ? (I have recently installed the BrakeTech Iron rotors and used the XRAC pads in the endurance race. Will test the CP211's soon).

Yes, Braketech Axis full floating ductile iron rotors up front and Ferodo Brake pads.
I believe the front Calipers are the stock ones that came on the 03 999.
Been tracking the 999 so much that I have been spoiled with the braking.
I took the 02 998S Bayliss out and in comparison it just doesn't hold a candle to the 999's set up.
Thanks for the kind words on the pics. First season tracking for me and I've really been working on my BP. Trying to get more lean and not so much of my ass off the seat
This was with my 998R (street bike#132/700) she´s like new with only about 4000kilometers, with very few mods and i don´t want to take her out again for the track... I only ride it 2Trackdays... and then i changed back to the original carbon farings!
This fiber farings where inspired in one of the bikes from MOTOCORSE
Some pictures i have of a couple of Trackdays...
Some months ago i have found another 998R(#516/700), and now i´m building this one only for track... i didn´t tried it yet, i´m finishing the engine with high comp pistons from Pistal Racing... this one have more work in mods!
This fiber farings where inspired in one of the bikes from MONSTERMOB UK
I remember reading that the original Monster 900 had a frame and rear swingarm and linkages from, or similar to, the 888. Obviously the rear subframe is different along with some bracing. I believe the steering rake angle is different (24 on the Monster, 24.5 on the 888, ?? on the 851...)...
I had a barn find.
2010 1198S Corse
978 miles on the dial.
Termi exhaust and remapped ECU.
Dynoed at 187
The price was so low I couldn't say no,
In fact, you could day I stole it with cash.
I brought her home Saturday.
I dubbed her Bella.
If I do a ride of, say, 400 km on my 999 I've got to crack the bleed screw and let the air out. It's fitted with remote canisters, but it was the same issue before these. It doesn't seem to use fluid, and I'm not getting any leakage under the slave. I read somewhere, I think, that the master can...
