Tboost going to make you go as fast as that clip? Smile

Is the steering dampner to fix that wobble? Can't imagine the bike getting light at the front wheel very much.

Steering damper defo for the wobble. TBoost is a switch to allow me to switch off the VBoost in the wet(!) .... or set to the standard 6K RPM boost,,,, or at the magic 3K....(fun fun fun)... I can already look like that guy in the vid ask Frank... he couldn't believe how fast I can bolt up a slip road onto the bypass and off at the next...he was still entering.... (no high end speed tho...but fun getting there).

And yeah it does get get a tad light if your brave enough to give it some on takeoff... Am a bitty scared of at the moment it since I've been using the GT550 over the last few weeks,,,feels soo huge and powerful,,,but I'll get used to it again... till it feels like part of me again.

Like the future design Vmax pics???

Reckon that V-Max has had some work done to it, is it me or is it running an 8-9 second quarter mile? Stock ones should be about the same as an R1 not blow it into the weeds (unless the rider couldn't launch properly).

Probably a bit of both. The R1's 0-60 time should be around the same as the V-Max if they're both standard. It almost doesn't look real at the speed that thing launches at.

Vmax was (one of) the first out of the box standard production bikes to break the 10 second quarter mile.... 20 years ago

think a steering damper would be a good idea as you have that fondness for twisting your right wrist mate,more commonly known as speeding somewhat
