In stock condition the Powervalve shuts off at 7.5k and stops you revving further. Earthing that cable to the frame prevents this just a reminder that if you don't have a full license it's now illegal to ride your bike.
Stay safe!
There isn't a plastic version that I know of, and a replacement one certainly isn't cheap!
I'm going for a polisport Halo on my X, which is the same as your bike but with supermoto wheels.
You can just buy some SM rims and use your original hubs.
Problem with changing the whole wheel is that you have to modify things like brake calipers and mountings. Plus you have wheel spacers to think about and sprockets / discs etc. You can pick rims up fairly cheap on eBay
I'll be doing it on my own! It's about 1300 miles to where I'm headed (Aunties villa) but I'm planning a day in the Pyrenees having a blast!
Yeah the street isn't the ideal bike for such things, I was considering chopping it for a Tiger Sport but I think I'd miss it [emoji52]
Awesome!
I'm considering some, planning a trip to Europe in August, worried about comfort a bit!
My left hand gets achey sometimes, which ones did you get?
Sounds like a good ride Bip, I'll have to join you sometime! Yet to do any of the Peaks really.
How are you finding the street with the bar risers now?
