G-Force Website Updated

Hi Everyone!

It's been a busy several years for us. I have been meaning to update the website with our progress, but haven't been able to since late 2007. A lot has been going on since then with the development of our bikes and I haven't been sharing. Sorry about that.

This weekend, I was supposed to be up at the shop dyno tuning the FCR Flatslide carbs. Unfortunately, I came down with pneumonia so had to cancel the trip. This left me home with a ton of mental energy and little physical energy...just enough to start updating the website. FINALLY, I know........ :whistle:

Here's the main page describing the updates I have made so far.
http://mngforce.typepad.com/

These pages are probably of most interest to you that have been following our project over the years:
http://mngforce.typepad.com/nc450vdev/n ... -51ti.html Latest Engine Platform to start 2011 .
http://mngforce.typepad.com/nc450vdev/n ... ngine.html about the 2011 engine specifically.
http://mngforce.typepad.com/nc450vdev/n ... assis.html about the 2011 chassis specifically.

I am still working on it, so there is more to come. This should keep you busy for a bit anyway. Please leave me feedback (here or on the site...or both). I am open for suggestions and can try to answer questions as they come. However, I do have to go back to work tomorrow, and get back to the development of the bike, so I may not respond right away.

HAPPY READING..............

I'll let you know if we melt it. Seriously, that was the ONLY place I could put it. The undertail took up all other options. I have it surrounded by heat tape and insulated with rubber padding everywhere. I really hope that's enough.

Ive read above 70 degrees is bad news for these puppys, mines mounted up front in a desperate attempt to keep it cool.

I assume you're speaking Degrees F (70C sounds really hot). You have me worried still. I looked at mounting up front, but didn't have the room at the time.

That's an awesome looking dash. What is it? Is it just basic dash functions, or does it have some data acquisition capabilities?

Great read and super work, if you decide to get a super quality exhaust the guys at goodfabs build amazing pipes,
they use to be UK only but i believe they have a USA workshop now.
Ive a mate who runs a custom gear company, they've done stuff for the triumph race bikes in the past, he's got a machine that looks like a large donut with broken ceramic inside, is this the cryo type process you,ve had?
