Hi All here is my two pennies worth on my Kit :D and my carb settings for Mr G request
After reading all of Eden's previous posts it convinced me to go for it plus didn't wanna cut off battery tray from my S1
I have covered just over 400 miles with mine
30 mm PHBH with the following
Main 135
choke 70
pilot 50
atom av 268
slide 40
float 300

gp200 box 19 /46 pulling 4.8 with franspeed super tour pipe

Its going superb - I love it although is running rich whilst still running in
I was contemplating dropping the main to around 130 over the next few hundred miles or so however after reading the last few posts I think I will leave for now and just clock some more miles up first whilst opening her up a bit more and some plug chops (maybe I will need to go up and not down after giving it some beans ?? and rereading the last few posts :roll: )
Hope this helps Mr G and others and will report back after some more miles
Was hoping to have a chat with you Eden and some ISC guys whilst you were on your short stay in Bpool on Sat I was in the tent as you arrived as it was raining and it was my stint on the gate as you left
Please thank a lot of your guys who contributed to our charity box on their way out
Ride safe 8-)

its great to have a few more people with the kits posting in this thread :)

Any and all feedback is most welcome, good or bad!

its a shame we didn't get to stay the night last weekend, its nice to do the miles in one day but spending the night at home when you know you could have been on the p155 talking bollox all night is always a bit of a downer :(

the guy on the back Christoph is Austrian and towing Dom for that long f@@ked his shoulder up :( when they got back to the camp site the coppers where waiting for them on the gate because they had had reports of the scooters with packs of beers on the back swerving all over the A46 and Chris thought the guy in the yellow coat was just the guy on the gate and tried to ride past him shouting get out the way im towing and cant stop... the copper wasn't very happy lol

Another 220 clocked up on the GT today riding up to the wiseman rally and back. Rode back with another GT kitted GP and did the 105 miles in 2 hours 10 mins including a fuel and fag stop half way and quite a few miles in motorway road works having to only do 50mph due to average speed cameras.

Video to follow :)

The other red GP has a GT 200 big lock bridge port in it that I built earlier in the year..... goes really well.
