Vodafone Parkalgar Honda CBR600RR world supersport race/track bike, Laverty 2009

For sale is my friends Vodafone Parkalgar Honda CBR600RR as riden in the 2009 World Supersport series by Eugene Laverty. where he finished 2nd. I'm not sure where to start with this bike as it has so many things to list.

This bike has a real racing pedigree. it is not an ex road bike that someone has converted for the track in their garage like you normally see on eBay. Teams of designers and mechanics worked on these at Parkalgar racing. Portugal. The bike has recently been upgraded to the 2011 specification with the latest cylinder head and it has just had a full engine refresh by Mark Woodage (http://mjwspecialists.com/).

These bikes were originally 145bhp but Parkalgar detuned them to around 129bhp to maintain the engine life before selling them. it is extremely quick none the less.

A few of the parts/features this bike has:

Motek ECU - fuelling. traction & mapping. It is fully programmable. Quick shifter with reverse pattern. Dash with telematics and shift lightOhlins fork internalsOhlins TTX rear shockBrembo discs and padsSTM back-torque-limiting slipper clutchAkropovic exhaust Carbon air intakesTitanium bolts
I will include the spare set of wheels I have which are fitted with new tyres.

Here is a write up from Motorcycle USA which is a track test ride on this bike in January 2010:

If you have any questions just drop me a message. I have set the price so that only people that understand this bikes value will message me. I will consider sensible offers though. I am only selling it as I have another 2 bikes including the new R1 and this now gets used the least.
