OMG WHY?? :D:w00t::hehe::pinch:
Nice ride Baz , back on the Twinz !!
Cheers guys 'twas a nice ride in this morning even going slow as its been dropped a tooth on the front.
It’s getting new:
Flasher relay
Indicators
Intergrated tail light (see if I like it)
Head race bearings
Suspension setup
Reg plate
For now…
Dropping a tooth at the front is standard mod for ones used for commuting . Its either that or clutch cruelty ))
Sweet!
very nice bike mate
Ahem… What does that mean?
noooooob!
It’s a very torquey engine so down in the lower speeds it’s a nightmare for commuting so putting the teeth down by down on the front makes it easier and less jerky
Lovely bike, always fancied one of them myself. Enjoy that sound
Lovin’ that bass cannon baz
It means having a front sprocket with one less tooth, which actually gives you shorter gearing doesn’t it? Don’t you mean add a tooth at the front, or drop three at the back?
Lubberly jubberly…
Seem to remember you could get a “race chip” for these too…which would release more ponies.
rsvr.net should be your new favourite web-site…not that I am trying to get rid of you …
The reason you drop a tooth is so you can use second in traffic smoother . The gearing as standard is very long so you end up either revving hard in first or chattering and slipping the clutch in second . One tooth off the front gives it a better balance .
Gotcha

waxy’s right the R’s you could get a chip for, you could convert it to twin pipes too- better for a twin
There is a chap called Garbo who custom makes chips to your requirments or modifications . He only does aprilias as far as I know and is hailed as a bit of a genius . I can try and dig out his details from the Ape forum if you like ?
^^^^^
