nah mainfield will have to wait a for many next time, can't do it this time got other things to do

I think I know the crowd who makes them.

I have had to deal with the 'odd' noise complaint about them (good bunch of guys actually). I have also had a noise complaint about a motorcycle shop in the Hutt (another good bunch).

Yer the Hutt place has a "rolling road" dyno. Either way a bike at full noise is VERY LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[matthewt]

Nah. It as to pass a ride by test. higher gearing means less revs at ride by speed. Simple.

Most common mod on the Ducati and MV sports bikes is 2 extra teeth on the rear sprocket because they got geared down for that test.

Up, Matthew, up!

Good dog.

Same for most bikes, so they can pass emissions tests, and be more economical, and stuff like that there.
The FahrtSturm is also overgeared, so the common mods are down one tooth on the front, or up 2 on the back, or both.

hmmm the misses should down gear her vtr1000f then, not like she needs top end any way.

she as only touched the red line once in the 18 months she has used, what she doesn't know is the amount of times i hit that line when i ride it, it needs a good cob web blow out every once and a while

[toads]

I think we'd all like your job somehow,

[White trash]

11hp extra through TEKA and timing adjustment.

Think we're doing some R1 hunting this season

Incidently, it now makes 12hp more than the old bike with the exhaust still to come. Weighs 2kg less and has more over rev available. It also brakes and turns quicker.

Watch the lap records tumble this season folks!

Timing Retardation Eliminator. These bikes have their timing retarded in the first couple of gears to avoid you accellerating too fast.

For obvious reasons...

Thanks CN6. I guess I'll wait till I'm really used to the thou before I look at anything like this. Can still beat Jimbo750 from the lights anyway :sly:

[k14]

Woah, that is awesome. Will the other suzuki guy's(Craig Shirrifs etc) also have K4 GSXR's?? Might be better for Johann (sp??) but won't be for spectators. It will just be the K4 GSXR's up the front and the older GSXR's etc back a bit. Or will the others improve aswell?

[Cajun]

sounds like fun white trash, means i should be able to get at least some of that out of my girl over time,

[Drunken Monkey]

... is you don't have the outlay for the tuner...

The trashman don't have to outlay for the tuner as he's probably nicked the one off my bike!

(Oh how easy it is to quote someone out of context!)

muhahaha

:P

[wkid_one]

I want the job the guy at Ferrari has. His role is to test the Ferraris until they blow up......now THAT is a job
