Phew....what a day...got to Rogers at 10.30...Out come the forks...totally stripped and cleaned out.....Roger works his magic on the internals then reassembles and fits back on bike....then he sets them up and adjust the rear to get the most out a bad thing...1 job sorted!

....time is now....3pm......onto the dyno to try and pinpoint the poor running with the pipercross...5 power runs later and the hesitationing is showing up big style when he cracks the throttle full open at 3k for power runs....still even running rough as you will see on graph when i get it posted up here...peaks at 108bhp

....reckons on well over 110bhp when i get the carbs cleaned.checked and dyno jet kit fitted not bad for a 98 storm with 18k on it...im happy anyhows

Ride home was fun indeed....front stays totally planted...lot more confidence in it now......cant recommend Rogers handiwork enough!...this guy know his stuff......now i just need to save up for a penske rear...eeek

Cheers

OK heres the dyno graph...as you can see the fuelling is a mile out causing very un-smooth power figures...plenty of it though

....cant wait to get the carbs cleaned and dynojetted and then get it back on the dyno

Cheers
