Had the banana redynoed today

down at TTS. there are some intresting power reading differences which are due to TTS using a car dyno which has some kind of weight difference in the mechanics of it that I can't remember hence different readings to the bike dyno DSD has which measured the bike at 110, TTS had it at 105. they reckon theirs is out by 5/6 % because of the extra weight the bike is turning. The engine is just pure evil now from 3k to 11, simply heartstopping. It feels torquey-er but they forgot to hook the tacho up so no chart for that. Now all I have to do is learn to ride the thing properly.

lucky git.

and no hitting the limiter isn't the worst thing you can do but you wouldn't want to ride into a brick wall to often would you same goes for the engine. the whole point to the limiter is it stops the revs before you can damage the internals but it ain't half rude about it.

one should have more manners.
