Seems like the powers that be want to bring in speed limiters and other things to take some of the control of bikes out of the riders hands, not good i think, if you object please sign the mulhouse decleration http://campaign.publicaffairsbriefing.co.u...1f-8f18b73ecd92 A clip from the MAG website EVSC - ISA - No To Throttle Control - No To Control MAG re launches its 2001 campaign to oppose the compulsory fitment to privately owned vehicles of any device designed to arbitrarily remove control from the driver to remote operation and asks all vehicle users to sign the Mulhouse Declaration.

Hi all, Iv got an R1 2001 with a harris high rise race can on it, but still got the normal headers with the exup valve. I have seen a set of micron full race headers and link pipe for sale, but im not sure if my harris can would fit as it has a long link pipe on it. It has been dyno jetted and has a K&N fillter fitted, i was thinking of taking the exup valve out to see if it makes any differents, to save me getting race headers. On the dyno it made 151 bhp on the crank and 138 on the back wheel. Has anyone taken the exup valve out , if so how much (if any) differance did it make. Your input would be very useful to me, ta, Tonyj

Hi. I wrecked my brand new 2006 R6 learning to ride it. To keep a long story short, I'm a huge idiot who made a 10,000 mistake. I can't take pictures detailing the damage yet, but I can describe a bit of the damage. The front end of the frame snapped off that connected the front wheel/handle bars to the bike and the windshield and side view mirrors are non existent. The middle and rear end of the body is mainly intact, including the engine. The only major damage to the rest of the bike/engine (aside from the plastic flimsy molding) it is a dent in my headers and I believe the oil pan was ripped open. The engine had about 10 miles total on it. I can either try …

hi, unfortunaitly, i have purchased a kwak. ive just run it home (helston, cornwall) from Llandrindod wells in wales (300 miles) on the run, i heard no abnormal noises. when i got home, it was run arround (priety aggressivly i might say ) and once again i heard no problems. when i got home, no abnormal noises. ive left it to cool down for 1 hour, and ive just started it up (because i love the fact that ive now got a 500, instead of 125, and i love the noise) and to my horror, i hear a mild to loud tapping noise from the cylender head at arround 1500 rpm above and below that rpm, the noise goes, but im very tentative to take her out again, seen as my SR's …
