If you could post some pics of your dyno we'd all love to see them. :D. Just noticed that you've gained a lot after peak on your curves and if you could move the whole curve to the left you'd have a very healthy set up,diffrent pipe maybe? :idea:

No broken bits as yet, no progress either!
Got to get a bike built to race it in now, but as soon as it's built I'm of over to Darrells to set it all up.
I'm Happy with a power curve that matches the reedvalve engine, so I will develop through the year.

Having stripped the belts off to replace the l/h crank seal i reassembled it and couldn't match the power of the reedvalve when i took the bike down to Darrells the week before Rowrah. I'm not sure that any work will be done to it now before whilton as I have a new cylinder kit that I got off ebay that I need to port, as I would like to run it at whilton. It looks likely then that it will not make an appearance on the bike until llandow at the earliest. :(

PS: Watch out at Whilton as I have devised a cunning plan to unmask your identity :!: :!: :lol:

A couple of home dyno pictures. I'm particularly proud of my plywood ORAC.

Sorry guy's didn't spot your questions before llandow, I guess you will by now know the answer, no. I think I may need to work on the handling a bit before Rowrah so it looks more unlikley that it will make an appearance this season though I do remain hopful.

Yes yes I know.
Saw this a few weeks ago, I think I'm going to have to vet my staff and visitors more carefully! Oh yeh, and stop posting pic's on the net also. :roll:
