The duo have already been hard at work testing unbranded versions of the b♔ike🎐.
Bassani has al🅠ready been tackling the first main issue he found with the bike.
"We worked on the rear, espe📖cially on the rear shock with Showa," he said.
“We tried something new on the rear with Bimota and it has been qui🤪te good. We improved in some ar༒eas."
Lowes has said: “I need to understand the bik𒐪e: the character’s a little bit different, the fe𝄹elings are a bit different.
“I was quite a few years on the Kawasaki, so adjusting is going to ta﷽ke a little bit of time, but in the one൩ day we had I felt good.
“We know that we need to work on understanding the bike, how to get the most from the bike, settings on the bike, the base setting, all this type of th⛎ing we have to work on. But it’s a 💮good challenge.”
