    Oooo that don't sound good!

    I'm so gutted that the VT died!! All that effort - up in smoke. I hope it wasn't something I did Anyway I hope the EL gives you many months of good service... I slink away back under my rock now...
    They shall not grow old as we that are left grow old.
    Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun and in the evening,
    we will remember them

    No need for slinking away, Col. What you did for SC was an awesome gift.
    You should be proud of yourself!

    COL!!!!! Please don;t think that the VT doing what it did had anything to do with you!!! You did the most amazing thing for me and that was to get me a registered and warranted bike. Ok so there were things that were wrong with it but it definitely wouldn;t have had anything to do with what you had done for me. The bike was crap before I gave it to you and I was aware it was a mission to have it completely finished.

    As Tart says you should be very proud of yourself!!!

    How many ponies you got in that rocket? Any idea what the weight of the bike is?
    Did they remap the fuel and balance the air intakes? What else?
    All you need now are Carbon rims and you will be looking at 320 plus.
    Nice to see people doing this sort of stuff. Gota love pushing the boundaries.

    Good luck with the speed runs. You might have to go out and get some practise in. Maybe back to the faster groups for a few weeks Good stuff Rob. What date is the drags and where? Might try and get away for a day and have a look.

    Stop stuffing around Rob, Shove a turbo on it and we won't see you for dust or smoke.
    A guy I played golf with his mrs had a turbo charged R1 in the UK he says he would never get on it with her riding.

    Na just a hi flow air filter and powercommander, remaped the fuel/air to the pipes and filter. Huge difference at this stage and i havent even looked at giving it a heave. One thing i have noticed is i arnt pulling as many revs at 100kmph. Probably dropped about 300rpm.

    Yes, came home with a big grin. Hayley says thankyou for the compliment and just wants you to know that the horns came out not long after Mum left. Kept Dad busy that's for sure.
