Looking at the excellent pictures provided by @ML512  I noticed something that far as I know hasn't been talked about... HRC is back using a bottom injector throttle body. The last time I am aware of HRC using such a system was 2019.

Look at the picture below.. notice the thick black tube running along the frame spar and behind the top engine mount. That's a fuel line. Now zoom in and you can, kind of, see the bottom injector manifold.

Any input on this @ML512 ?

And of course I reserve the right to be totally wrong 😂

I was waiting to mention it when I had a better photo but yes, I’ll have some more info at the next round.

I believe RP Racing made it.

I know almost nothing about how a motorcycle motorcycles! My brother on the other hand knows almost everything and so I or most likely he would say 'there's something wrong with ya bike' and then he'd fix it while I sat there staring into space haha So I had no need or want to know cause he'd do it.. And yes I copped it when Days of Thunder came out "Cole Trickle sounds a lot like you mate".. but for whatever reason, when I'd see a new model or factory bike I'd crouch down next to it as if I had any idea of what I was looking at that would be new or different haha.. My mate who is a mechanic pays me out and we've dubbed it the 'unnecessary crouch'

Anyway I say all that to say this, I wish I did notice shit like this when I did the unnecessary crouch cause it's cool shit haha
