looks mean as crouton m8 - very nice indeed!

i notice on your fuelling line though, you have a very very similar dip on the rich side as i had with mine... then it levelled out as the revs rose...
it was caused by non standard diaphragm springs & drilled carb slides.
if you have drilled yours it might be well worth you plugging the holes with a bit of o ring superglued in the hole, then have another dyno run - i think you will be surprised lol!
if you have fitted the lighter springs out of a dynojet stage 2 kit, junk them and put the standard ones back in - makes a world of difference m8, maybe slot in a bmc 1404r filter as well to take advantage of the extra fuel you're squirting in!

cracking job youve done on that bud

cheers b+h , id have to admit none of the carb or motor mods were mine so its a bit of an unknown , all ive done with the motor is an ebc kevlar clutch kit, valve clearences , and sevicing , it was really the chassis and cosmetics i put together , but am sure more info will turn up as i believe its known to a few people on the site ,
the reason i havent interfered with it is apart from being really bad on (upto) 1/4 throttle (its piggish ) it fuels really good , its really well set up apart from that , and its not really a bike for around town or traffic . high seat , bad lock

the handling is fantastic and it flies

im happy

It's looking great Motostorm Nice you got back to us now you've re-designed her

I see you have USD forks now with radial calipers, a very nice touch IMHO Which forks did you use

its i believe 2005 cbr1000rr , it had a stem already fitted for a 96 blade and so dropped straight in , its very good works great , reduces steering lock tho ,
i expected the wheelbase to be short but its fine theres only about 5mm or so in it ,
the bike did require a damper tho
ive just put an r1 front on my other bike ill report back on that too , . for me its really the storms weak point ,

Cheers for the info on the USD forks. I look forward to seeing some photo's (hopefully ) of your other Storm with the R1 front end, when it's finished

Thanks for the photo's Motostorm. The R1 forks look good IMHO, as does that single headlight I feel it gives the bike presence
