    My New Bike - 08 model

    So I managed to get a pre-release 08 bike. It's ok and I got it last night, but I find it a bit lacking in power.

    Think a bit of work on the jets might help?

    I've added a pic for you all to see it.

    Be wary mate, if your frame is alloy you might find it cracked in double quick time.
    Even a steel or chromolly frame is dubious if it's not a big heavy thing.
    Tony, one of the mechanics at Cycle City Manukau, fitted the same thing on a steel frame and it lasted about 3 weeks.
    The motor is not balanced and can easil shake the bike to bits.

    Bro, you got ripped! That bike hasn't been new since at least January 2002.

    I think my estimate might be closer . . . given the date in the bottom right corner of the pic.
