    Oh yea, I might be interested too
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    Thats exactly the same attutude i had when i bought his pipe. Its fine as long as you keep the revs under 6k, that will give you a top speed of about 70kph or something

    Onsold it to some schmuck about 3 weeks after i bought it. Pity you missed out

    To be honest, I rarely go past 6000, just cause I don't want to ring out the engine, at least untill I take it to Manfeild again

    AS for not revving your bike, you should let her warm up first, then once she is warm, take it to at least 80% of the rev range (15 or so thousand on your bike...) This makes sure that everything is running well, and keeps the engine running well... stops excessive carbon build up (that last one is probably bollocks, but try it with the cops hehehe)...
    See Robert Taylor for any Ohlins requirements www.northwest.co.nz
    Thanks Colemans Suzuki
    Thanks AMCC
    I use DID Chains and Akrapovic Exhausts

    How long should it take untill it has warmed up, roughly. I'm never too sure about this
