yeah grand look forward to it dude.

been out for a ride and its bang on.

done some varying in riding did some motorway, up to curts at the RAF, done some duel carriage way, twisties etc and its fine bottom end right to the top end, done 40miles on it and im extremly happy with it. next stop the DYNO

picks up really well in first gear, although i made myself look a right prick at one set of lights when i was in second gear and had to give it some beans on the clutch. i could have swore i was in first,

need to tighten my clutch a little too, seems a bit loose on the gear changes, hard to find neutral etc, so maybe a little slack. new cable BTW.

i do however need to get used to the QA throttle seems to over fuel at times and getting the right launch its all new learning for me,

overall thoughts on £28 spent on the K&N well worth it.

also £12 to fill the tank from reserve last year cost me £15 today

Rick

also tidies the garage up and cant believe the crap that has built up in parts etc, so keep an eye on for sale section

Nice one dude!
know what you mean about the price of fuel tho, I fill up every 100 miles and use to be about 6 quid now dont get much change from a tenner

i was just glad to not drop it on the forecourt like i did last time

So the flap mods are all working well, good to hear and look forward to the dyno results.

I love QA throttles, i find standard ones a pain.
