Can you buy just the tail piece? Mine is a bit cracked.

Was there much of a weight difference between the old and new pistons?

Where are you guys getting givi bars from? I cant buy them anywhere. Tried heaps of people on e-bay and they say they are out of stock.

I see you've updated your spec already

Nice one man.

Few questions

Whats all the black stuff on your old piston? Carbon?

Is that in your lounge? I see carpet...... I would not get away with that if it is.

What special tools did you need?

Just to add a little info gathered back in the dark ages.... Back in early '98 Dan Kyle did a back to back dyno run with the only change between the two was the first had the "restriction" in place and the second had the restriction removed. Same bike, same dyno, same day and the bike mad...

Been a bit soggy here lately. Where in the country are you, Im in Auckland. Mine was doing this recently. But Ive done the coil on cap mod and yesterday when it bucketed down the bike ran fine. Yep...In Auckland and Ive picked all the wrong times to ride home on both nights and been caught in the w...

Thats a nice screen. I like that.

My bike read in MPH but being more up to date here we are in KPH.

I just fitted a healer now 100 mph is 100 Kph. Easy calculation to do.

I dont care about my odometer as im never selling the bike.

Waiting for a warm day to do it.

Probably get it done this week end and will post pics.

Bloody cold here at the moment.

Oi, stop shipping your cold over here.

I think it took Danny Pedrosa about two race meets before he got back on the podium after his surgery :D So we have high expectations for you NZ :thumbup: :wink: Pete.l Funny part is my partner just got back home from hospital after an ankle fusion. She cant stand for 6 weeks. In 2 weeks I cant use...

No don't remove the restriction in the righthand header pipe, Chris. They seem to disagree here, http://ozfirestorm.proboards.com/thread/1929/mod That link is not working, but I have seen it before. I have an idea, why don't you dyno your bike as it is now, then remove the restrictor and dyno it ag...

Interesting. Thanks for that.

I will be repacking the RH side pipe soon to see if its burnt out.

So do Moriwaki and Akrapovic have restrictions in the LH pipe? Arrow has similar routing as Akrapovic, and pipes (cans) are made to have the same flow, see the X connection from front and rear near the sidestand. http://i57.tinypic.com/vqmgih.jpg Nice photo! Have you dragged the side stand? Very di...
