Ohlins shock & L74 Rear wheel kit!! - 2023 Yamaha R1 Track bike build - Palmer Performance - Part 4

Part 4 of our new Yamaha R1 track bike build for Trade Watches UK.

In this video we fit the gorgeous Ohlins TTX rear shock and L74 quick change rear wheel kit along with new DID race chain and Talon sprockets!

We discuss how to measure the rear shock, how new chains stretch/bed in and about wheelbase and wheel alignment.

Thanks for watching 😁

Nice work work Sam. What could be a good bit of info to pass on is the torque settings you use as track settings might slightly Differ from road.

Thanks Sam, great video. I'm going to change the suspension as well. What are the tork values for the 3 bolts/axes when putting the suspension back?

argh... I was really hoping you'd get that swing arm machined to lengthen the wheelbase as I'm thinking of doing that to my bike atm hahaha Next time, I guess ;)

Hi Sam, thanks for doing the videos i have found them very informative and learnt a lot. What make and size torque wrench do you use ? Is there any that are accurate and reasonably priced, without spending snap on money ? Thanks
