Be aware that Nooj and Debz are away on holiday.....

you may want to see if you can get a replacement lens... the clear ones or the faster, smoked lens (+3bhp!) to be honest that would be necessary to make the integrated rear lights works best

Do you ride the narrow twisties down there, the sort with stuffed stone walls hidden by weed growth?

Well ladies I won't delay so here is the final score on the bHP run ......drum roll please ............... This was done on a Dynameters DYNA PRO machine and is : - Just over 116.5 bhp REAR wheel with 70 FT/LB Torque....

Was gutted until I realised this was from the rear wheel so not sure what the crank BHP would be but I assume it's more otherwise something’s wrong ?? Although he did then show me some other maps that he'd done for some RSV's and they were roughly the same with some lower and some higher at the rear wheel but not by much so didn't feel to bad after that ..

BUT when it comes to riding the bike now I have to say WHAT A F##KING DIFFERENCE !!!

The mid range now is spot on and it's pulling so much better making me realise how bad it was running beforehand. The guy said he was putting in numbers he’s never used before with the whole thing taking them over four hours and two tanks and 64 runs to get right......

The story doesn't end there though......"Great" I thought as I rode off in the pouring rain but still managing to give it some on the straighter parts and having a laugh to myself .....wasn't f##king laughing about half hour later when I pulled in to fill up on petrol and the f##king gear change broke on me , snapping the bolt on the ball joint inside the pedal !!!

Long story short after about an Hour later and a very helpful man from AA ( not the drinking one !!

) I was back on my way with easy gear changing and soaking wet with still another 3/4 hour ride left in me with a dark misting up visor /pouring rain and getting darker by the minute..................got home to the wife saying " where the f##k have you been " .........."Having fun ! I said , trying not to cry !!!

So all that's left for me to do now is give the old bird a good clean and get ready to go for a blast in the dry today to really enjoy it ...........

Let the SLAGGING begin !!!

Power sounds about right to me.

Too many people exaggerate claims and are aided and abetted by dyno operators that bung in compensation values that "more than compensate"

I really must get my fuelling set up .... but I still can't decide whether to fit my 54mm TBs or stick with my 51s ......

Have to say DR that after having it done and being able to give it a good blast today i can not stop saying how good it's running now .......i know it was £200 but i have to say worth every penny !!

As for the 54's i can't help with that until some gets theirs done with the 51's fitted ..........

I did mention about making the end can a bit shorter ( by 5' ) and he said it shouldn't make that much difference to the map i've just had done ............not that i'm doing that just yet !!!
