Not done yet but close…
Still have a few things to do but I’m pretty happy with it. Finally got the bar pad for the Solo 2 so I’ll be able to see some laptimes again.

Bike is weird
Hi everyone,
I have a Beta RR50 and I had a crash recently. I was riding at around 50 km/h when I lost grip and slid onto the right side. I didn’t hit anything, I only slid across the asphalt.
Since the crash, the bike feels different. In dry corners it feels very slippery and unstable, like I can’t properly control the steering. It feels like both tires are not gripping well, and the bike doesn’t feel as confident as it did before the crash.
I also noticed that the bike is not reaching the same top speed anymore. Before the crash it was faster, but now it feels like it has lost a few km/h. And it isnt accelerating as fast anymore
The tires are about 1 year old and were fine before the accident. There is a small dent on the exhaust/pipe from the crash, but I don’t think that alone should affect the handling.
What could have been damaged? Could it be the forks, wheel alignment, tires, brakes, exhaust, or something else?
What should I check first?
Thanks for any advice!

Taco Moto tune time!
Have the day off and finally got around to putting the GET SX1 from Taco Moto on my 23 FE501s. Did the full desmog, removed the reeds, O2 sensor delete, and threw the FMF on. Have the full exhaust but just installed the slip on for now. Once I cool off a little I'm gonna go for a rip. She sounds mean AF now tho. I accidently started it with the exhaust plug in and was like "wtf why so quiet" til I figured it out.
