Default Free horse power

Been out on the bike over the last few days, it's working better than ever in this cold dense air giving better performance, anyone else enjoy it ?

Cheers Mark.

I think any bike loves cold weather not just the old school carbs, Roads are lovely and greasy though makes fun fun half throttle exits out of corners lol
