The Braveheart 919 was a giveaway prize from Cycle World a couple of years ago. The actual bike (2nd jpg) has an '06 599 instrument cluster on it.

I'm attempting the '06 599 dash conversion on my 919. I trying to locate a wiring diagram for an '06 599. Can any one help?

BTW, the winner from NY sold the bike on Ebay to a person in TX who now has it for sale. Second owner says it's too nice for a daily driver and now rides a Ducati 848.

Too nice???:crazy Granted, i wouldn't dog it, but i would ride it a couple times enthusiastically. Yeah it's a one off and all that but bikes are built to be ridden! And this one looks like it wants to be ridden, no?

I certainly would ride it. . .the way it should. Never mind the bling. . .it has the big dollar suspension, the big brakes, the tires, and a neutral frame. . .it begs to be ridden.

What is the guy in Texas asking for it?

The bike is no longer listed for a consignment sale. . .he was asking "only" $14k for it. He won it on Ebay for less than $11k. Not bad considering the parts (and labor) it took to put it all together. Some may say. . ."It's still only a 919."
Here's a thread I started when I first found that "scorpio" was selling:

I thought the protective toe-plate (or whatever it's called) over the front sprocket was removed. Looks bad-ass when it is!

Maybe it was my bike you saw without the cover. . .

Whoa, 9nineteen! I didn't notice that! But, that's what I'm talking about. Maybe it was your bike - a while back or something. Nevertheless, you're a hero in my book for cool things done to their bike. I like the open toe look.
