Scooterotica

I have the rt225 with the bgm clubman and although had to dremmel a little off the fins of the barrel to fit the stub the rest of the exhaust fitted fine, I`m very happy with the kit and exhaust. I only wanted a touring kit with good mpg, it has plenty of torque and will do 70 mph no problem, perfect touring kit for me.

What gearing are you running. I'm just waiting for the exhaust stub to arrive for my dev tour to get it set up. Sounds perfect for me I wanted a fastish tourer. I've been through the monza and imola and loved them. Problem is when they go bang it costs mega loads to put them right. Fed up of shedding out thousands every time it happens.

Sounds great, what gearing please?

That's more like it,I was gonna say that's impressive.Sitting at 75 I took it as a cruising speed which it obviously isn't. I'm running 4.8 in my iron 200 kit and wouldn't say it sits at 75,it will do that but it's almost flat out.

wont u just pass them at the petrol station ?

Ah the old petrol myth,

Does anybody actually ride more than around 70 miles before theyre arse is killing them and they have to stop??

Long range tanks will get near enough any tuned lammy engine 100 miles non stop, but sod that 70 miles is about my max

Totally agree John.I run a ts1 and a standard p2 at present.The p2 is very economical on A roads at steady speeds,but rally speeds with mates on dual carriage and motorway[which is most of the time] and it takes a bit more than my ts1 does without a doubt.

Don't think this will be any cheaper to fix if goes wrong.

gets rb kit back outer the bin

True mate. Just hoping this won't go wrong. I'm going to leave it as it is and not tune the nuts out of it.
