you do need to keep it on the pipe and not happy at low revs chugging around town ,
early days yet but so far so good , Steve
Awesome!!! :D

Found out today that mine is ready to pick up next weekend!

I might now race an R6 on track every other weekend, but believe me, I can't wait to get this motor on the road :anbrgin;

Sounds good Steve, but what primary & secondary sprockets are you using with the TV box, as its a low revving kit anyway? What symptoms are you getting round town or is it just a case if getting used to the motor and the gearing as well as being a new motor?

I'm in two minds over what to do. I was thinking of buying a GP resto, and spending £3500-£4000 on it, or sinking the same sort of money into a complete Super Monza engine package. I could then sell the Imola engine in my Scoot and whack the Super Monza in her. I could then sell the Imola lump and get a few quid back. This engine seems the way to go :D

Over 30bhp for a touring motor, wasn't just me then because it felt like a beast when I rode it and I've got a 27bhp rb that goes well but you have to rev the nads off it which shakes everything to bits!!! Looking forward to getting mine now :baddevil:

Can't say that I'm too interested in 30 bhp at over 7,500 rpm on the road but 22 bhp & 20 lbs ft torque at 5,700 sounds fantastic.

That looks like a very wide spread of power, it must pull like a train in top 8-)
