1198 1198s New Owner

Discussion in '848 / 1098 / 1198' started by Allan108, Jun 28, 2019.

  1. Hello everyone,

    new owner of an 1198s, lunatic of a bike!

    ill be sending it down to Portugal for some track day action, and I have bought a set of race fairings, from a 1098.

    my question if you do not mind, I have spent a long time searching and looking, but to no avail.

    the rear fairing, I have the S, is there anything specific I need to be wary about when it comes to the data logger location and or DTC?

    kind regards, happy to photo document if it will help someone else.

  4. Hi, nice bike!

    If you fit an aftermarket seat you need a bracket to mount the DTC in the correct orientation.
    BSD do them I believe.

    I think the DTC is a bit billy basic so never have mine switched on.

  12. Would anybody know where I can get a BSD traction control mouth or similar for my 1198? Fitting race fairings and I can’t find a mount?
    Many thanks,

    Al
     
  13. From BSD?

  15. I was being a dullard! Found and bought many thanks!!! I’ll post images soon!
     
  16. So working on changing the 1198 into track mode....
    Ok so my first track day, on a bike.... in Portimao...
    in over my head, absolutely!
    So far fairings going pretty smoothly, DTC mounts purchased but some clearance issues with track seat fairing. All pictures taken on my broken phone, excuse weird quality!

    One step ahead!! But many thanks, it’s still a bit tight, maybe the fairing or more likely the way I have mounted, if I could mount it below that would be ideal, but it gets close to exhaust....
     
  18. If that were me, I'd look to remove the 2 rubber mounts (they are quite tall) and mount the IMU onto the brackets with some shorter rubber fabrication of some sort. :thinkingface:
     

  19. Hmmm, good thinking, I’ll find some shorter runners and see, that would take 5-10mm off the height, may be enough!
