Default So, I have the very first 848R...oh yeah...

Can't go into too much detail...have to wait 3 weeks, but I can say this:

My 2009 848 will have Traction Control, Quick Shift, FI w/autotune...

I have given up my baby for 3 weeks in order for this to happen...

I'll post info soon as I get it...like Dyno numbers...

(Well if not R, then S for sure...She is special to me...)

Sounds like a Bazzazz system to me.

I would expect nothing less from a real 'R' too Arthur
Oh and some nice sand cast cases to hold it all together properly.

Pretty close, the black one in the pic above has all of that other than 4-pads instead of monoblocks, Arata instead of Termi, fiberglass race bodywork instead of carbon, and a microtec & quick qhifter instead of PCV. The red one has most of the same, just Carillo rods instead of Pankl Ti's, and Nemesis ECU. It really doesn't matter though, a true "R" model is the factory homologation bike, and the specs vary depending upon what has to be done to meet the race regs. Then add a little "bling" to make them a hot looking street bike, and "BAM" you have an R model!

Jarelj, very nice mate!

What power do you get from such joy? Just out of interest. I know its not about figures but I would love to see a graph if you know of one, I like to look at the curves lol. The Arata system is top of the line too, balance as well...NICE...very NICE.


Oh and congrats on the first 848R....lol


That shut me up...lol
