R900RR controls- Detailed Photos from the 2001 Barcelona Motorcycle show

Picture 1 - Pilot's view of the cockpit and controls

The control setup of the bike was good to see up close. Notice the rallymaster controls on the left
and the throttle cable control on the right. More closeups follow, keep reading!

Picture 2 - Left grip - setup

The clutch is Magura hydraulic actuated retrofitted to the BMW specially.
Light, horn, and cutoff controls are via a CEV switch to the right of the cylinder.
I don't know what the switch underneath the rallymaster buttons does, any ideas?

Picture 3 - CEV control on left grip

Here you can see the CEV switch up close. I'm sorry that the focal point is not correct.
This is a nice, compact switch which all pro-rallyists have.
It's much more compact than BMW's OEM control so I'm also adding to my bike.

Picture 4 - Magura hydraulic clutch, lever

From the side you can see the distance adjuster on the clutch
and the notch cut on the lever which is standard.

Picture 5 - Right grip

Shown here is the Magura 312 throttle cable assembly. It allows quick switch of
throttle cable without complete disassembly of the grips.

Picture 6 - Magura 312 throttle control and starter switch

This is a closeup of what turns out is the engine start switch and the Magura 312.
There was another button like this mounted on the side of the frame which I thought was a kill
switch, I pressed it lightly and the bike attempted to 'start' - a complete suprise to me and everyone around me!

Note the drop down switch inbetween the two. I like the mounting hardware but what does it do?
