Here's some vid from Saturday. It's a little bouncy but pretty good. This is the first track vid I shot on my Contour. The mount I use was the Contour Windshield mount, a good one, but too bouncy and too tall as I "tucked" into it several times. I'm very happy with the audio so far. This was...
Simple, call the friendly folks at Motovation and get a Ballistic Lithium battery!
I had a little mad money so I sprung for a new battery on the R6. I've no idea if what I took out was stock as the bike is very much modded, but the new battery, an eight cell, is much lighter. The install...

Man, lots of dudes down Lorenzo off twice in the same corner, Stoner down. Both were moving slooow. Lorenzo's second off was a MASSIVE high side. OUCH. He's to be checked out tomorrow to see if he races; dislocated right shoulder and sprained right foot.
Looks like Nicky had a good day...

I finished my work early today and headed down to New Braunfels to AF1 Racing and we worked on dynoing the bike today. Man did I learn a lot, more than a lot, a ton, an associates degree in dyno tuning. Honestly I'm really not sure where to begin. :confused:
The fuel delivery on my 11 at around...
Well push came to shove in the PC3 legacy for my 1125...
AF1 Racing was working on some preliminaries prior to beginning the dyno tuning and well we couldn't do one key thing...shove a probe up the exhaust.
The stock muffler is not only very heavy and super ugly, but it is a Hemholz...

What a long two months...
My instrument cluster freaked out two months ago. Cruising at 55/60 mph, then the speedo goes to ZERO for 15 miles, then to 180, then instantly back to Zero. The engine check light comes on, throws nine faults, all invalid. Then the low fuel light comes on. ugh...

Hey Everyone,
So today I dropped the bike off at AF1 Racing in New Braunfels, TX to have a Power Commander 3 install. Yup, you are correct, DynoJet doesn't make a PC3 for the 1125 series so I'll make one myself.
AF1 has a Factory Pro Eddy Current dyno for a 4 Gas EGA sensor. I like this...
I drove down to New Braunfels today with my son and met up with Fred and Kilbane at AF1 Racing today. AF1 was hosting an open house with factory Aprilia demo group this weekend. They had all four stroke models available to demo.
I choose the Shiver to ride, a 750 Vee Twin. Bottomline up...
