Creeping up...
after a few more long nights this week & last, I have managed to obtain another 2 horsepower out of the dear little 583.
She is now almost nearly a whopping 50hp

look out 620 guys, only another 13hp+ to go maybe by the end of next year, we might catch you

Alan

That's very impressive when you consider, Fil2, Ali & I think Dave Harris' 675's are all making 51bhp.

Good work Alan

Top work Alan! Given that we spend 99% of our time between 8-9000rpm then I reckon you'll be out front again... Bugger!

After a couple of weeks fettling I can confirm that I've done bugger all to my bike except create loads of filler dust! Tank is now a full comedy item (asymetrical dontcha know!) and my fiberglass work has been getting excellent reviews at the local comedy club.

Ho hum, looks like I'll have to thrash the living daylights out of it again.

Cheers,

Ali

Good work Alan

He is trying his best but I am getting tee'd off with being a 'lonely soul' at home - hopefully all is as good as its going to be now & he might be able to keep me company for the odd evening

C

but he has ordered some more little bits......

You spend all season watching bike racing waiting for a decent highside, then complain when you've got the best seat in the house! No pleasing some people....
