yep understand Kev, could be different if tuning ecu or nemesis v PC too.

Dyno guy said could be done, but its all about air flow, filter used, getting the trade off between whats fairly straight forward versus more complex, and for 1 1/2 hp or whatever it would be a lot more costs and the benefit did stack up.

means I have to rethink the tank - thats the only reason I was removing the airbox - and looking at how Ron's is done I'm still going to see what i can do. Worst case its an extra 2 kilos

but bike in a far better position than last year. Suspension properly done by people who know what they are doing, engine in good nick and within a whisker of power limits. And without too much complexity for me to worry about

Oi, I'm worried my engine about to blow now?! I know it could do with an extra few bhp but I like to keep excuses in the bag so not going to chase the extra ponies just yet!

I knew the suspension was made from solid bits of scaffolding, but that's all sorted now

was a little home made at the fromt, but the Ohlins did an ok job and don't worry; I go no where near an engine!

seemed to come out OK, the right side of legal with power landing earlier and holding longer than when I got it from Nick. 5% more power, torq less improvement, but lovely and flat and more revs now too

I do wonder if I'd have been over the power limit with 2 cans tho, as every bit of info I've read says the 2:1 reduces power a little at the top end. I'm sure someone will be along on a mo and point out the opposite but that's what most tuners have said...

overall happy - shame I wont be using the 916 tank as the extra weight saving and look/feel would have been nice

can't recommend Dynotech at Basingstoke enough. Great VFM and really do care about what they are doing. The passion comes through for sure.

have stuck the graphs up on my FB page - no point in hiding, wouldn't want anyone thinking I was doing the dirty when my fat ass beats em this year
