    Don't you look at my accountant.
    He's the only one I've got.

    All the wiring is sorted and the Dash works a treat. I’ve only had it up and down the road once, it does some vicious wheelies in first and second gear. Next step is a dyno tune, I’m thinking about going to Suzuki whanganui for this does anyone know anywhere else local to palmy that might be good?

    I’ve also used my new Chinese CNC mill to machine up some new rear sets, I’ve still got to do the RH side and the brake/gear shift levers. Maybe I’ll do a top triple clamp next. Click image for larger version.

    I'm going to say, rather rudely. Uh duh!

    Call, Pete Sales at Total. I'm assuming that he still has Chris's dyno. Clever guy. Will charge real money. Will be worth it.

    So I had this out on track last weekend (back track at manfield) for a shakedown, just jetting down from a safe size. Handling wise I had to take it easy as the bike has a 10 year old tyre on the front but that wasn’t the point of the test.

    Now before I chop the pipes and try tuck them under the bike a bit more as I’m worried about ground clearance, can I just flatten part of the belly or will that completely kill the hp?

    Belly is safest place to do it, yamaha have resorted to this on occasion. Clearance more important that power. . Did I say that?

    Make sure you calculate your spring rate and do sag. No point blowing through stroke to dragon ground or bump
