Average trowel is average!
Ok I just heard back from Cyclespot. They have looked at my bike and aparently a powervalve was blocked/frozen/broken (can't remember which one it was) and the airbox wasn't the right one for my bike or something like that. My question is what the hell is a powervalve and what does it doe?

Or a spud up tut exhaust if it's jammed shut. Happened on my FZR1000 once- 'tis a very strange feeling riding a normally grunty bike that suddenly goes all quiet and struggles to do 80kph

The exhaust or Exup valve must of been completely blocked as the bike would not even start by the time I got it to them. I've had a prob with the exup before, closing and not opening, resulting in too much backpressure and the bike not wanting to rev.

you want 200bhp/l & expect it to last how many decades?
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
