You can't. Bl00dy good question though, Lisa.

I'm completely blonde when it comes to engines - albeit I'm not blonde. But I should have been

I don't think I'd have had more fun though

PS No offence to blondes who, in my experience, are fairly bright, generally, but not always.

Good question but not really Ducaticentric, is it, Lord Rattler?

Please direct your questions to the house - the club....

(in other words, no bl00dy idea, it just is, ok?)

This is more like it. Thanks Mav. Getting in the spirit ....

Actually, my 996 bip doesn't. So the question could be considere a bit suspect/biased. Let's see what anwers crop up.

Waiting ....

Everyone from Essex says that. I used to say it myself. Lived there (loughton) for 11 years. Never admitted it, mind you. Hertfordshire born and bred, me.

ok ruth to explain !

when they run with open pipes and sponge filter, chip etc etc

what happens , and i know 3 or 4 bikes that do it!
if you ride it hard "no problem"

but if you cruise and then get on the gas in a high gear they seem to splutter b4 they get up and go!

as if they have bogged down and may have flooded a bit!

and then they clear!

maybe on the track it's not noticed but on the road i know of several people who have noticed the same thing!
