You know, it\'s almost a shame that I am going to...
 
Race/rape this....

It's so nice and clean but.......

One good crash should sort that problem :o

twpd 03-Jan-2006 12:44

Oh ye of little faith! :(

Mind you I did crash twice last year so, perhaps it's a case of "ye of great faith"? :borg:

ali 03-Jan-2006 14:03

Mine looked just like that once!:(

I've crashed both the 583 and 620 SS and can confirm they crash very nicely!:lol:

Have fun with the setup.

Ali, I'm not racing them in Minitwins this year due to certain restrictions as discussed elsewhere. Instead I'm gonna have the odd play in SoT with various clubs to keep my hand in. I'll be massively outclassed in the horsepower stakes but, so what. It'll be fun. :burn:

Oooooohhh, she's an 800! Sorry, didn't pick up on earlier threads.....

A few of us had a play in SOT last year and got some reasonable finishes out of 51bhp, so I'm sure you'll do ok with 80(?), and you'll be 50x as stylish as an RSVR!

twpd 03-Jan-2006 14:24

Oh yes. I have two 800's all equipped for MRO Minitwins. I was on an SV last year in the same series but, for this elected to go the 800 route. Sadly, the rules intervened for me so, that's now out.

At the moment both bikes are putting out 77bhp at the rear wheel with std pipes and filter on. I've found a very useful little tweak that lifts the power nicely in the midrange from 60bhp at 6k rpm to 65bhp at 6k rpm. :bouncy:

I've also managed to move peak power down from 8900rpm to 8200rpm. Lovely. Now I just need to fit the race pipes, filter and possibly an FIM ecu...I reckon 85bhp might be within reach without too much effort here...we shall see. I get free dyno time which, allows me to play to my heart's content.

...and over 50lbft of torque at 6500rpm. :lol:

Hi,

Are you going to do a few meetings with NG next year?

Felix 03-Jan-2006 18:14

Nice one twpd! All being well, I might see you on the occasional SOT gird. You being up north as well, are you going to race with NEMCRC (mainly Croft) or Derby-Phoenix (lots of northern tracks) at all?
