Not bad for an old girl ......

#1 Post by cornish mafia » Fri Nov 05, 2010 2:31 pm

Could it really happen or is it because i fitted new wheels ? Took the old bird out for a blast couple days ago and managed to reach 150mph ( empty private road officer ) in 5th gear ........had a tail wind but nothing mad and she was pulling really well. Anything under three half and it's still not right but better then nothing until i can get it dyno'd .......

I know it's not super super fast but pretty good for a Falco !!

:)

I am not revealing my exact indicated top speed on standard gearing but it is a touch more than that

I believe that you have a PC3? try the renegade tuono map from powercommanders own website... i think it is listed as being a german map :)


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Been to 153 on mine (indicated) but the track was not long enough. Still had a bit to go but not much more, recon it would reach betwenn 155 and 160 if the track is long enough.

Got standard gearing so was hoping maybe i'd see something between 150 - 160 so am happy enough ........ Although it means that there's not much to come from the other one gear !!!!

Am running a PC3 usb with the Tuono 902-000 or 907-503 as they seem to work well at the moment but as soon as i get this dyno'd i'll be sticking that up for anyone who wants to try it ............. ALL THOSE WITH THE 54'S THAT IS !!!!

Isn't it against the law to go over 60mph on a single carraigeway. I think they allow you to go to 70 if it's a dual carriageway..... I always bottle it before then. :smt018

That's why i pointed out it was a private road .........would never think about doing it on a REAL road ..... :smt005

Think that 503 map is probably best Aladin but will let you have my one once i have it done and dyno'd .........Hopefully it will work for you as i think we're pretty much the same MODS wise on the bike , hopefully next week will be sorted fingers crossed :smt033
