on Monday night just round the corner from my house a guy on a ktm was involved in a head on with a Volvo 850 his bike actually snapped in half and part of it was wedged under the front of the car, can't be sure but it looked like the car turned right across his path. the police closed the road and carried out an exstensive accident survey for several hours, so I feared the worst,anyway just found out he survived but several broken bones ect, and may not be able to walk for some time. hope he heals well and if the car driver gets his just deserts. take care out there cos theres some useless feckers about. -

well done m8 them figures are not to shabby are they. -
well I finally got my fueling issues sorted today yippee! turns out the air pipe which pressurises the float boals was not getting the correct pressures , so I have now routed the pipes into the bottom of the airbox so they sit behind the filter and now have equal pressure . this cured all the cruising problems but w.o.t. was still a bit rough so lifted the needles to the highest point and bike now pulls great and is smooth reving. I would like a bit more midrange grunt but I reckon this is down to the muzzy 4 into 1 and racing can being a bit to free flowing when I get a chance I will get it back on the dyno and see how it looks. thanks for all the support and encouragement.
