    Sup all, ive got a 98 vtr250, rps pipe on it (quite loud). 26 000kms

    mine hates anything higher than 91 octane, it runs like shit after cruising along the motorway at 110kph then when slowing down for the lights with 95 or higher- like its fouling- its hard to describe it almost stalls?

    im 6ft 2 bout 90kg, got it to 160kph absolute max, its a bit small for me, knees get a bit sore after a while but i can get it going round corners well . its been to round coromandel, hawkes bay and obviously wellington.

    but i got it cheap and should hopefully be able to make some money on it when i come to sell it in about a years time and get a street triple.

    oh ive just brought some frame sliders off trademe for it
    Always keen for a ride.

    I think he means his knees get sore because of his height (cramped up a bit) not that is sliding his knees on the road. If you want to do that, you gotta do it properly and touch an elbow down as well.

    When fitted with the rps pipe was it re-jetted? If not just bump the idle up and ignore it, on the left don the bottom of the carbs is a nice wee screw you can set the pilots with them, factory specs are silly, I would say 3.25 turns out will be nice.

    Could there be a better way of putting it? I think not.

    Haha no there isn't.

    I've been reading the rules in regards to f3 racing, single cyl 4 strokes do not have a capacity limit, and you can pretty much mod the shit out of it.

    I wonder how much you can bore out a xr650 hehe
