By the way, why the set up is with KYB instead of ohlins so big difference in performance, to overcome the sister company?
Is it possible?
My personal point of view its.... easier for supplier since the endurance is in Japan. Where as ohlins its office in in Netherlands.

This is only my opinions

Works Yamaha machines
the yamaha people(designers etc)are cool people,and just had a good day drinking(free beer etc of course!)and just enjoyed the days racing
it was really hot and many bikes etc had problems
couldn't help but notice the factory team (blue 45) uses the same quick change setup as Phase One Endurance does, the white nylon disc next to the sprocket and the tooth on the swing arm to hold the chain. love to get hold of one of those quickfill oil caps :yesnod

excellant photo's as usual, hope you & the wife are enjoying your vacation :thumbup

sent you a PM (if you have time) (for a friend) :yesnod
