Sorry DD. Alright folks, you heard the man, put all your bikes back to stock. That's right, no more pipes, jet kits, fork mods, shocks, .... Stock is best remember!!!!! sarcasm..... is the lowest form of wit mate. :evil: Now if you use ya brain for a minute that is not what I was asking, I WAS aski...

I finally got around to installing a long intake trumpet on the front cylinder (same unit as found on rear cylinder). Micky Ok, so can you answer this..... if the bike std has a long in the back and a short in the frount then you would expect thats for a reason.... whats the reason cos if it runs b...

Is it possible to runs slip-on cans (road legal), with a K&N air filter, set up on a dyno, with no jet kit? Yeah it is possible but a jet kit is reconmended... I'm looking at doing the air filter soon, with this mod to the tuning http://ozfirestorm.proboards34.com/index.cgi?board=tech&actio...

Anyone heard or tried this mod ? http://ozfirestorm.proboards34.com/index.cgi?board=mods&action=display&num=1111133695 Na I havent...... but seriously thinking bout this mod tho... simple but afective http://ozfirestorm.proboards34.com/index.cgi?board=tech&action=display&num=1103237...

Again, if anyone has experience comparing stock filter vs K&N (both properly jetted and with aftermarket pipes preferably) I would certainly welcome your input. Cheers Micky well I've been looking in to this a bit closer to home.... do you guys get DNA over there? cheaper than K&N. anyway h...

So describe what you mean by "lost the feel for braking" Ben Well I like the bike to be set up harder than most people so as when I haul the brakes on the frount end dosent dive much, I am used to heavier bikes than the VTR like the Guzzi 1100i sport. What I feel happened is the bike drop...

Well that was interesting...... much smther touring was quite happy with it, but...... when it came to pushing it hard through the tight and curlies I found that I lost the feel for braking, so much that I proved that a VTR can do what a XR can off road, forking close it was both wheels locked up so...

Well it could be worse... could be a oil question, but it aint. Suspension.... well buggered if I know, The bike runs stock suspension 03 model, now it handles great well as great as it can with the showa shocks, but I find it very jarie as in when riding slow on rough rd's do I want to turn the 'Te...

I had a 97 and a 86 as a back up bick more recently, they would be the only 4cyl that I'd have, in fact I've only ever had 1 inline 4 the rest have been v2's including the CX500 turbo. injoy the new bike ...

Now why the hell cant Honda think of that VTR would start selling all over again I reckon.

I have used a nitro N800 for over a year The N800 is the model that the shop had in store looked good but was a tad to gay for me as they only had flero pinky red, I also found the padding a bit rough/harsh thats why I was thinking about there top models. Thanks for the info. alternatively you coul...

Now I am woundering what the Nitro lids are like, as they have only recently come into NZ. I believe that thay are rated over your way (UK) as 'not too bad' I'm thinking about either the N900v or N1000v models, but as there are only the cheaper lids on the shelf so far I'm not sure what they are lik...
