Re: My bike actually has balls!!
I found anything skyward of 7000 rpm was, and still is, a welcome rush of power

Re: My bike actually has balls!!
Chris I'll send the invoice over for de-restriction. Call it 150 notes.
Too right about your riding technique. You need to know that full throttle in the rain with a dodgy back tyre isn't the best thing for self preservation, even in a straight line! I was happy when you texted me after you'd got home. Us old people do worry. Take it easy homie. P.S. I should add that it sounds the nuts too! I was surprised how much of a difference it made. |

Re: My bike actually has balls!!
Now did you balance the carbs like you said you would? Good to know you are having a new lease of fun with the SV. Careful with the right hand, the bike will bite you now.

Re: My bike actually has balls!!
no, not had a chance to balance them yet. though the bike feels sooo much better fueling wise. now those horrible little plates have gone will still do it though, just to be sure.
