Sun is shining there

Speed Triple is getting a bit of suspension work and a minor Tuneboy ECU setup, while the Daytona is also getting suspension work, plus a major Tuneboy setup with custom performance mapping to eliminate the dead spot under 4000 and more power thru the rev range plus top end. Last one he did like it showed 303kph thru a speed trap he said.......but hey, we all know how accurate our speedos are eh.....

, and of course its illegal to go over 100!!

Interesting to check the Tuneboy thingy out, seems far more extensive and better than a Power Commander. Its loaded into your ECU, so theres no need to fit a PC to the bike. Plus you get the disc to load at home on your lappy so you alter fuel/ignition/flow/injector pulses/sensor info, etc, plus reset fault codes, check diagnostics etc etc.
Way more extensive stuff than a PC.
But of course its useless unless you have an idea what you're doing.
Looks ok to me, so no probs in future. (famous last words)

Anyway, enough rambling, think the bill will be extensive too, but who cares, only live once, fuckit, I'm off to the Gold Coast tommorrow at 7.........catch ya round in about 3 weeks for a ride.

Nice write up Tony,
we never had to do that with our old Triumphs it was all hands on Polishing and porting, stiffer valve springs and High kick pistons and the rest of it. Tuneings got to complicated now if your compute stuffs ya got to push it.
Get off to the sun ya lucky dude.

Yep, will fit yer in one of the bags.
As long as you and the bag dont weigh over 20ks it will all be fine.

Now to the truth. Where were all those tough guys'n'gals who always spew out the words 'softcock' to people who don't front to a ride due to bad weather? I'm not mentioning any names... you know who you are!!!

To those three people (+ one pillion girlfriend) who showed up for the ride..... 'RESPEK' you guys define MANHOOD

Nuff said.

So how many went on and rode this ride?????????????
give us the truth!!!!!!!!
