Hey Richie

[GixerJockey]

I am not sure about that. and I would absolutely would love to test them out to see where we stand.

Did you go "inside" your motor? Deep inside?


If we catch another really nice day this season, I'll go grab the bike and hit you up.

Oh yes I did. On a different Dyno I saw the same number as yours. But i havent found a similar a one to test them out.

Noel couldnt even use 50 hp, not sure why hes bragging about having 190.

[Tricky Mike]

I did sell it... but still have access to it.

still bummed that thing didn't make it to VIR that year... Sweetbabyjesus that thing through the kink...

Maybe you over-maintain your bike.

I rode my SV this season on its 5th YEAR since its last refresh and it had only lost 4hp since that time. With the addition of the flatslides, it was actually running 4hp higher than when it was last refreshed. And it gets a ton of track time too. This season saw 6 rounds of racing (3 races per round) and 14 track days. Last year was just as busy as well (5.5 rounds of racing and 15 track days).

As for brakes, I only clean the caliper pistons when I change pads.

There is a point where doing too much is more hurtful. Sometimes, it's better to let your bike settle.

You got a ways to go.
13 years
Unknown mileage (guessing 60k+)
Stock clutch
Motor has only been opened for cams. And that was in 2005.
Last time it was on a real dyno it made 73 (iirc). That was in approximately 2003.

I'm pushing 104hp on this motor

Huh? Mine is pushing 104.7 and that's a ten year old kawi that will do 160. What happened to your built motor Jim I thought you had the tits meows gsxr motor built up?

Needs a refresh. Tossed in one of my 3 street bike motors instead.

Gotcha, mine could probably use one too if I ever had the time to ride .

[Jim]

2:11.0 and 169 MPH in AM MW SS.

[sdog30]

Is that a good time?

[Pittenger5]

Howd you gain 15 mphs?

[OreoGaborio]

He figured out the handlebar on the right turns.

[Chippertheripper]

Is that a good time?

I69 sounds like a good time to me.

[Jim]

The better my lap times got, I kept switching from +1 rear to stock rear sprockets. I was assuming that my gearing was maxed out.

However, I kept getting consistent 150-151 MPH on the stock and 154-155 MPH on the +1 sprocket.

Does this mean I was just out of horsepower?

[OreoGaborio]

Yup.

Or too fat.

Probably too fat.

[Jim]

So I used all that power?

Pete, the wing house crushes TTT. You need to check it out.

[Pigman]

Did you guys ever hit up Steak N Shake????

[OreoGaborio]

Definitely too fat

[Jim]

Definitely too fat

Sounds like I need to grow a goatee
