B-U usually travel from Portsmouth, not Dover for trips to Nogaro, so you don't have quite so far to go from Cornwall.

[deej]

ah cheers razz

spin see you in 18months then if not before, why you moving to trispen, nice area but not quite jersey

[spinoli1]

Deej,

Many reasons - here's a few selected at random:

Island is 9 miles by 12
100,000 population/160k in summer
40mph max speed limit
Pasties

[deej]

the last reason i can fully understand

when your down here i'll take you to my local pasty shop its the bees knees.

2nd reason will be worse for you , nearly 2,000,000 people in cornwall in the summer

[deej]

spin ive just had my little old 853 back from the dyno and thanks to chris's magic hands its kicking out 107bhp

im sure you'll be well chuffed when you get yours back, let me know what you think

[spinoli1]

Ooh ooh, now I'm all excited.

It's only a couple of weeks now 'til I take the bike over to Chris.

He's holding on to it for 2 weeks to do the work (and for Richard to do the service). That will be a long 2 weeks.

Then it's off to Nogaro at the end of May - me and 5 buddies.

I know that power is not the most important thing, and numbers are just numbers, and all the other sensible things people say -

But I'm still hoping Chris gets 135 to 140 rwhp and a gazillion litre/acres of torques at the seat pad.

Spin

sounds good mate, im sure he'll do his best or worse which ever the case maybe
