Getting there. Found 15% more horsepower when I put it on the dyno a couple of weeks back. Nothing startling powerwise but at least it's not far off the average SV now and Gary was surprised at well it took to being tweaked on the dyno. Looks very promising for more tweaking. Gonna look at ways to remove weight from it soon cos she's a bit portly, although I think the most gains will be made from making the rider lighter unfortunately. Wish a slipper clutch and close ratio gearbox existed for these things though!!

Thats good to hear Billy, however i have no doubt that there are plenty of good people associated with one particular club ( NZPCRA ) that could be "tapped on the shoulder" for comment/assistance (if required). + there are other individuals around also that may have "of period knowledge" first hand (I:E old buggers like you), - that could be just as helpfull.
Cant wait to get back into the shed & get the Bimota finished so i can come out to play. :-)
Anybody could buy a YB8 from Bimota (If you could afford) in 1989 after the show on, and some did.The same bike was sold as a YB6 Exup in some markets in 89, different stickers only. In the UK, they were not sold in 89, as the Dealer still had YB6`s (Non exup engine) that they wanted to clear first.
The earlier Yb6 uses the same frame the YB8 anyway, and the 89 Fzr exup engine shows 88 manufacture marks,and has had little controversy for pre89.
So it could be argued the YB8 was available in 1988 as a kitset :-)
