Re: 180 out?

Yes I believe that has to do with the performance as well.

I red something about a very simple solution, cutting two wires and coupling them. It is said that after doing that the ECU doesn't know how fast you go.

Maybe I'll try this as well.

The bike rus great till 6-6500 but then NOT...

I think its too much money though. 160 euros. Next time ill try my self. with a special gauge. The bike runs nicewith the new can...

Re: Engine knocking noise

I went the bike to the workshop, corrected the timing for te Rear cylinder (jumped 2 teeth). So the timing also in front is correct I guess. Must I pen the front cover just in case to check if the camcahin sprockets are aligned with the crank marks? I'm afraid something goes wrong with the electrics...

Re: Engine knocking noise

But the problem is that it makes the noise when accelerating, not when idling. (3-4k) in acceleration. Thnx for the response
