Patrick Kieth Cody Chris Hooray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ouch!

It changes the timing advance curve. Switch when you want!

The Boyesens are dual stage, and the firsr stage is just more progressive and responsive. No reed stops either for the second stage, revs to the moon once you get the main jet sorted so it will clear! That cable housing that Baldi is referring to is a real pain. You have to cut off the stocker, about 4mm, and re thread the inside so the adjuster will go in far enough for the thing to idle. If you cut just w wee bit too much, you can't go back to the Dellorto cause the adjuster then is not long enough. If you bend it to go under the head support you may have problems getting the cable end back through the kink. Even on the stocker I been running it to the left side and above the support. Had to bevel the support a bit on the right side to keep it from rubbing into the tank with the sharp edge on the '07. It holds more fuel but does not really fit worth crap! Baldi, you can also cut a couple rounds off the throttle spring, makes things a bit lighter and smoother. Lube the throttle tube inside with light oil or motor oil, just a bit will do! If you cut off the spring on the K, be careful, as I recall if you cut more than about 1.5 rounds it may become too light. Feels good but noa a positive return. I spec of dirt from anywhere and it could stick because it cannot overcome the friction. "A", stop spilling your fuel on the sticker and it will last! Keep a rag handy if you do, and be quick!

Gawd, Craig will be up all weekend!

We may set a record with the length of this TREAD! But so be it! I think I need to get with V-mar to see if he has some of the 10mm spacers. Seem about a 40mm spread on the bolts for the fatbars.

running your finger between the tensioner block and the swingarm is a good guage and rule of thumb! Not too much, not too little!

I would try cleaning those expensive plugs in a proper plug cleaner or bead blaster before chunking them. You may be able to save them, never know! Sent you the stuff, not to be shared! Sorry! You are a certified test pilot now!

The 93 pump gas should be fine in the later models. Never tried the ELF stuff, but I think it is a full synthetic so should be ok. Maybe you are on to something with the muffler thing. If you can't get a good hillclimb going, surely you can find a place to blow it out on a scrambles track somewhere. Usually after 5 minutes of good hard running they ars smoking like a freight train from all the old oil in the pipe. I'll send you some other info via e-mail. ps- guess you ruined that expensive plug I sent you? MC

Now Thats Funny! I don't care wo yo'ar, thats funny! Me thinks "strip club Pamela" as done shown him the "Hammers"! Ha!

Yea, it'll fit, just needs a bit of love lube and persuasion! Getting a proper fit in the carb inlet is another story, but I suppose Sherco makes a part for it now! Fr the Cabby! The clamp is larger too i think! The K is a really tight fit on the '07, nother reason i decided against keeping it on. Surely they changed something on the tank for the Cabby to accomodate them! Or else someone(A) would have said by now.

Wot gas and oil you running? Never really had that problem, but? I can tell you how to clean the muff, if you are lucky and not running the wrong stuff!

(Heath to Barry) C'mon mate, just carry this pack of lamps and batteries up the hill in the woods so I can light up Laia's backside while this thing is going like an AK-47! HeHe!

Not a clue, Baldi! Not seen one yet, and could be a while as these things go. My guess would be that the base timing is still adjustable, the switch just changes the advance curve in the revs. Probably about time we got The Addict to pull his apart for inspection and cleaning so he can ck the torque on 'is nuts!(need pics) I should add that I have been impressed with the new plastic side covers ability to keep out the crud and water! I always used to have to drill a hole in the bottom of the cover so water could drain and let things vent to prevent corrosion. Not on the new ones! Seems nothing gets in, even with the pressure wash. Seen on the advert "Leonelli Programmable Ignition" -- Not sure WHO programs it if you just get a switch! Not sure I really want or need the ability to build a custom map for the thing anyway! Sort of like the suspension settings now, I have 150,000 setting variability! Big Deal! Hurts my B-R-A-N-E! Can I just have a few that work? I need a beer now, Cheers!

Looks like Heath broke in the new Clicker! Some nice ones there mate!

Baldi is a bit like me it seems! Even though the newer bikes do seem smoother than, say the '03-04 range, they do have a pretty good hit at around 1/4! The Boyesens seem to really help in smoothing out things, so seem recommendable, not costly! The base timing settings seem to have little effect with small changes and negative effects with large changes. The 5mm counter rotation from standard seems to be the happy medium on mine. Although I admit to preferring smooth side and keeping it in the lower revs still, by using 2nd gear and the clutch, if you need more, a slight slip and pop is all it takes! Once again , all pers pref! Still lots of grunt off the bottom! You see those Renthal Fatbars are speced the same as the 4.5 rise standard bars, which would make them abiut 10mm lower than the stockers for the '07 as i understand. That Caby bike is probably similar to the Renthals, which puts them a bit low for me. Did you compare them?

Yea, seen the announcement a few days ago, The AMA has finalized the vote counts and selected the following to our USA TdN teams: Men's TdN Team: Chris Florin William Ibsen Cody Webb Patrick Smage Women

I seen this coming alright ! Can we get the Dabster to put out some lights so we can ride aftre dark?

It's the same thing that causes them white spots on yer face! Gawd, I would not wan to be in your shoes now , Ian! Excellent shot of Bou!

Neo, All i can tell you is that Lewisport US has them. I think they cost about $600 US! $750 for the Ohlins as I recall! See if your Sherco dealer can help you get the "07 shocker " upgrage first! The "06" shocker has had some problems based upon reports I have seen. Smage has been running one of the TRP's on his 2.9 for a while and seems to like it last I spoke w/him. May be a good unit I would think!

Good info mate, forgot about those Caby bars being different, although I ain't seen one yet! That could throw you off a bit unless your last name is---? He is a fair sized fellow with long arms as I recall. Makes a difference! On the older bikes I pretty much liked the stock bars and if I replaced them, went to the 5.5 Renthals. If you look at the specs there is only 10mm difference between each of the bars between sizes, not 13mm as would be presumed. As I have had a bit of an adjustment problem even with the stock '07 bars, makes me wonder if some 10mm spacers might be in order, although I have pretty much adjusted by now! I have been happy with the Boyesens, good response and smooth power off the bottom. Even with the Keihin the power was smooth, but yet Bigger which is why I went back to the well tuned (if a bit lean) Dellorto, just a bit easier to manage, although I did not try the slow throttle with the Keihin, which as I sit and think, may be a good combination for things, given the big rev power of the thing! I did have to drop the main jet several sizes with the Boyesens to get the beast to rev out cleanly, not like I ever use 8-9000 rpm! You must realize the fact that to the PRO's, most all this is insignifigant. They just give it more blow, raise the thing higher and quicker, and flick it before you actually see what has happened! Been running the forks dropped about 8mm in the clamps with preload and damping all the way back to nothing. The shocker is running about 3 clicks back from all the way "in" to the right. Still pretty quick! And keeping the rear sag still to about 30mm, still lightly floats when unloaded and feel by hand. Seems soft to me though, but really works when you need to compress the rear to get some grip, it stays planted. Where ave you settled on the shocker? Wish more folks shared info on this forum, but it seems most are tight lipped of non caring on these matters, pity!

Thanks, Barry! I may be in for one of them 4T things!

Looks like the forks are made to Sherco spec for sure! Near identicle on the outside to the Paioli's. I wonder if Barry got i left side pic of the 4T, wonder what carbie they are running on it? Did Graham ride the 4T?

Caby rep frame Ceriani forks(Old indian word for Cadilliac) Dual mode switch(I only have 1) Bold new graphics with lots of WHITE(blood shows up better) Never fails, every time I have a spare mudguard they change the colors, oh well! Comes with new tires and a old kickstand off a Fantic or something! No RED rims, crap!

Ian is going to have us the phone sex------er, updates, via the blueberry!

Gawd man! Do you get enough time off work for that ta spin me one of them maggie covers? Hope you are doing well and the pain killers work!
