Very impressive, Yves! This is a very complete unit that does everything you could want and more... Sounds perfect for a Ducati Panagale or a mega-bike in that class. But a bit of overkill for a little Duke.....If you were able to buy it for a very good price, however, why not? I look forward to a ride review once you have fitted the RB Racing. Do you plan to use the Quckshifter function?
Will , I couldn't agree more with you . It is only because I was speaking to Jorge Munoz the Dimsport Spain manager for Rapid Bike products who offered me the " used / tested " Racing exclusive version for my Duke at the price of a BNIB Evo version I originally called him about .
I never had the intention to buy the Racing unit and certainly not spend +700 USD on any ECU for a Duke 390 .
Yes , were I to have a Ducati or MV Augusta .
The quick shifter is option and one would need to spend even more money ... again ... not on a little Duke .
Only last night I started to calculate what I have spend on extras for that little Duke so far ... I'm getting very close to having spent the same amount for which I could have bought a 690 .
I bought the little Duke because here in the EU it can be ridden with a A2 drivers license ( up to 400 cc ) , a licence my wife has . I'm beginning to think that she will use the bike as many times as she has used the 125 scooter I once bought for the very same reason ... being ... never .
I have to admit , I enjoy fiddling around with vehicles . I drive a very nice VW golf 7 which was fast enough and well equipped but I couldn't leave alone neither .. kept it as discrete as possible with Brembo Race brake calipers and discs , ABT tuning ECU , etc..
