Many thanks to David Sprague for inviting me over to Texas for a few days of fun at Cresson circuit Texas (Motorsport Ranch) last weekend.

Primarily to help him out with his superb bike collection but as it turned out very little needed to be done so David very generously let me choose a bike from his collection to play on. 

This very pretty bike was originally ridden by Ruben Xaus in 2000, now much slower in my hands, but still great fun.

Using knowledge, maps and hardware designs from the systems we fit to World Supersport bikes it was relatively simple to create a 'plug n play' kit of parts enabling Boulder Motorsports in Colorado to equip this beautiful R6 Yamaha.

The whole system was fitted in under 2 days, started first time and worked faultlessly at the first track event at Chuckwalla. Brian from BMS and I worked together over the net to dial the bike in for this customer, so no need for a trip to the States this time.

For details of the full system specification, read more on our web pages. R6 kit 

The Desmo RR system is now completed and the bike will go back to Germany next week. The whole system dropped in very smoothly with the Ride By Wire module sitting just above the air intake and below the ECU.

The existing throttle cables were re-used and with a little modification linked up nicely with a direct cable run along the right side.

Throttle grip demand came from an MV-F3 twist grip which is far smaller than the 1199 I have used in the past and has a slightly shorter pull angle.
