I thought twins were crap? And inline fours were vastly superior like??? Wink

Very nice though, you bastard. How much is insurance costing you?

Watch out for the engine braking!

Nice machine mate, you can't beat a 1000cc lump. The Suzuki engine is supposed to be a corker too. A carbon tax disk holder is an essential item though.

Korn - What's happened with your bike, has it gone?

Yep

Some of us like yellow. Razz

Yes, the insects may find it fascinating, but it also makes you highly visible which is never a bad thing given the ineptitude of most people on the road.

The thing that worries me is that he has now got a big V-Twin with Quill cans in bright yellow.

Not exactly a stealth bike is it? Laughing

/me suggests that Ste invests in a pair of Wolf quiet baffles.

https://www.wolfracing.co.uk/baffle.html

They won't make it road legal but it might stop it from setting off car alarms!

Normally a pair of loud cans isn't a problem, but a pair of loud cans on a 140 bhp bike in bright yellow, probably going some... Police

Yes officer?... Embarassed

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

TLR is fuel injected, so it'd be remapped not rejetted if it needed it. The airbox mod is nothing dire, it's done quite a lot, theres no hole but theres a flap in it that opens with increased air pressure, by jamming it open all the time it's supposed to improve low end power, so it can be put back easy.

Must admit, it does help. Cool

I thought yellow was vile when I bought it, but it really does grow on you. I, of course, have subtle leathers and helmet. Ste's orange and black ones with a red lid may be a little harsher on the eye.

Noise isn't a problem. It's one of the advantages. And they're road legal cans anyway, but I plan on changing them for some nice race cans though Twisted Evil

I'm gonna get a 33bhp kit sorted, cos it is likely to attract a bit of Police

Insurance should be about £50 more than the ZX6R. Engine braking on them is something I've already played with Korn. I had a test ride on one, and well, it's a lot more than the ZX6R. And this is a proper twin, unlike a FireStorm, so it's okay Razz

The airbox mod, ask Phoe said, is a common modifaction to them, as it is very restritive as standard. I have spoken with the shop where he had work done, and they have nowt bad to say about it.

The yellow is good Cool
