Aussie 1090/1190/1290 owners thread.

yeh knew that part

Got my eye on a rear 2015 690 talon orange hub & excell A60 rim IF it fit ?

I dont know. Having owned a 690, and currently with a 1090R and 1290S the 690 hub from memory looked quite a bit smaller.

I'm sure with enough engineering re spacers etc it could, but why you'd put a hub, spokes and bearings designed for 150kg/70hp on a 230kg/160hp bike is question only you can answer.

Ring Talon and ask them?

Does a 690 fit a 990?
If yes, then yes

Talon hub all same & a same as A60 rim , if was a simple as spacers not issue i can knock them out in 30min on the mill
y is a crooked letter cant straighten it that's why

if its all the same then what is it you're actually asking?

sounds like you know what you're doing. go hard.

It's time
Selling my 2015 1190R cheap with all the kit. you name it its got it.

Got a 701 the other day so its going to be my next project.

Just remember you better be tall as she is 30mm higher than standard with the TT suspension replacement.

Thanks
Hopey

The gearbox on my 1290 sar is a bit notchy,thought it would loosen up as bike got 16k on it,anyone else find same with theirs? under power doesnt want too change up ,3rd -4th gears as expected.

Johnno what oil are you using ? I recon a fully synthetic makes for better gear changes
I was getting lots of false neutrals on my 701 until I bought a hammerhead shoe size specific gear lever no more missed changes

Have you cleaned the clutch oil jet?

Thanks for replys gents,run 10/60 crosspower in it and change it at 5k.Yes have not cleaned clutch lube jet but will do,was onto it with the other lc8 bike's I had but didn't even think about it with this bike,good info thanks.

So 1090 owners if you had your time over would you buy the same bike again?
Why?
