Cant seem to find one on here (or its lost).

Today I bought a 42t rear (although been told 45 rear is best for Cadwell :eek) then I bought a 7x5 numberplate.

Also purchased some 50mm foam as a stop pad for rear of the seat, I may be 6'1 but slide around to much back and forth on track.

Also did an oil and filter change today!
 
I changed the fugly mirrors for some shiver model ones....nice cheap effective mod:thumbup excuse the crappy phone pic

Went for a quick blast,ending up at Wheels in Peterborough.Had a test ride on the V4 T for a couple of hrs then blasted back home the long way round.:yes
Knackered now,nearly time for coffee and chocky biccys.:drool
Tomorrow,I'll give her a clean and adjust/lube the chain.Hopefully the gasket set I ordered for me 'ol Triumph will arrive and I can put that back together.
 
Will wait to see what the 42 is like, may try a 44........:dowhat
 
Most folk find 15:42 to be most ideal

I reckon mine does about 135 - maybe 140mph flat out on 15:42. I've never found an occasion when I thought I could use more acceleration. When riding hard its a battle to the front down in 1st, 2nd, and even 3rd

im running 15/40 and i have to say rusty, mine is still pulling hard at 140, never had it flat but seen over 150 a few times. According to my data logger i was doing 141 at cadwell !! Maybe the renegade airbox makes a difference ?
 
Yesterday: I rode it to work & back.

Today: riding to work. However I am then having a new rear tyre & as I've been pleasantly surprised with the maxxis that were on the bike before I had it, have gone for the new maxxis diamond. Will let you all know what i think :thumbup
 
When I was running 16:40 I logged 167mph at silverstone. I know I'm a midget but Im unsure how close to reality that was
 
I treated mine to a set of BT023's at the weekend.

Also bought a new grey seat hump off ebay as mine popped off and got scratched to **** when I didn't click it down correctly....expensive mistake. Other shock was for £100 (though got it for £80 best offer) you only get the glass shell! If I didn't have the original hump I would have been buggered!!
 
I heard of someone who runs 15/42 on a Gen 2 that allegedly saw 157 on the clock on a private road recently...
 
Thats good to know, so if I go 44t still going to have a good top speed :)
