Did Steve find much wrong with it?

Its a shed in disguise.............

He doesn't really seem to have found much really. Despite his valiant attempts to get it to stop running like I have had, it played ball for him. Now this may be due to the fact that the power commander had been removed. What I do know is, I now have slightly more HP than I did and a btter fuelling map. I also have more HP for longer in the rev range.

He doesn't like the wight distribution of the bike, its way to front end heavy. He thinks the battery is way too small. He says that if I change the exhaust system for an MP4 I will get an increase in HP, I am 2 under his bike. Apparently Arrow are developing a system for the SV, he is going to test it on one of the race bikes to see what he thinks and provide feedback.

these FI bikes are more trouble than they are worth!

Yours needed work, so did Wals, most if not all the bikes that blow up are FI's.

Carburation rules!

'cos it was new. they don't seem to take the rough and tumble of racing quite as well as the carbies.
