Two wheels and sometimes one, on the tarmac
I'm still having issues with over heating. I have also installed a PC Autotune so I can see what the AFR is doing and found the bike was running down to 10.3-1, which was way to rich for the bike. By leaning this off should help with over heating issues. I'm also going to replace the coolant with a better mix and try running a synthetic oil.
Today's the big day. First time out on the track since doing the mods. Very exiting and nervous.

Where the muffler/expansion chamber ...

A quick check with Richard and it appears it’s him and I. In that case, he can wait, so I head over to the gas station to get some gas. Upon returning, there is now a big group of bikes waiting… excellent, the trick of leaving and them thinking it’s safe has worked. The plan would be perfect if I was leading them to their demise, but alas, that’s ...
It is finally happening to come together. I had a play with the fuel mapping today setting it up as recommended from a friendly member at another website. i also had a play with the gear changer again. one of the connecting bolts was too long, allowing for too much movement. When changing gears so when changing down to first gear (which involves a fraction more movement than when changing down to other gears) there had been too much movement, stopping the gear change. I need to get ...

Yes, an over nighter without the men. the last one we had 16 lady riders, & we did the Coromandel Loop. Staying at Thames for the Friday & Saturday nights. What a blast. Fun had by all. Give Bayride a call, or better ...
