The bike is almost finished, we only need the final bodywork, it will take some weeks to be ready.
Meanwhile, here you have two photos that show the current aspect of the bike. If we compare with the photos that we published 3 months ago, we will see that there are many differences: we added the brakes, exhaust, electrical wiring, the airbox intake, display, chain, telemetry sensors, fueltank cover (this is already part of the final bodywork), quickshifter, etc.
After the two tests we have done, it seems that we won’t need to make any significant change in the bike design, it is working very well as it is now, so for the rest of the season the target is to continue accumulating miles and continue working on the bike set-up.
But of course it is always possible to improve things, so from a design point of view we do not relax and we are already working on a series of improvements for the BOTT M211, the bike we will race next year. We will show you this changes as we have them more developed.
As always I recommend you to visit our Flickr gallery, where you will find these photos with higher resolution.
Not sure if you plan on running the bike at the end of this years moto2 races or not. The AMA (USA) race season only has 2 more race weekends so you might have some good racers available. I would put a word in for Larry Pegram. He will not finish on the top but the Ducati 1198R has not been competitive in the AMA rules and series. He is a good guy and very accessable.
Hi Charlie, thank you for your comment.
We will race in the CEV (Spanish Championship). We already have a rider, Alex Martinez. He is an experienced and fast rider.
