What hype? :lol:
If anything all the "hype", negativity and disbelief has been on the forums, but I have seen the graphs and the cylinders and talked to the man that designed it. People are too ready to put it down as "hype" rather than be open minded and positive about the possibilities if this kit.
Hope you dont think i am being negative about the super monza kit ;)

Lets see how it performs in the Metropolis long term before anybody judges it
Cos @ it"s price it will have to be good
Doesn"t matter how good the kits look or go
Even if they have the sweetest Dyno-Charts you"ve seen ...... Reality

The ts kit as proved itself .....

If Charlie's name is on the cylinder casting, it will be of a very high standard, nothing less, and deliver what it's described to do without breaking. Why do you think it's taken so long?

I don't think any kit has had this amount of development and testing before, that must count for something, and unfortunately adds to the cost

I don't suppose they expect to sell as many as other kits out there but I would think with the funding necessary for this and knowledge of the market, Tino, Cam Lam and Charlie probably know what they're doing.
c e's abillity to tune ,make his own pipes and ride well all gell to make a very formidable racer no doubt about it though it has to be said closely matched by guy topper

I haven't seen any negativity on here regarding the SM kit, wot I do see is a minority telling the majority how good something is, when that happens the majority will ask questions and want to see proper info about it. It's not critasisom at all, we can't all go out tomorro and see or try out a SM but at least a Dyno graph will give more then a good indication of how it performs and to make some caparisons to other kits and engines, full credit and admiration on all the achievements, I already know that it won the 6 hr endurance race but I'd rather have something to look over and compare with. But then again even when a graph is put on that is exceptional that can be met with heavy critasisom anyway.
I don't disbaleave it at all im more interested in looking at wot it will do then hearing wot it will do.

Not been on this forum in a while... I wonder why.

Silly comments from the price of forged pistons to carb flow... its shows how little you think this kit is developed and how little you realise of Charley.

Not from myself Tony, I can fully appreciate the time and effort and experience that has gone into the hole of the set up, and i fully believe that it does wot I'm told it does. The torque and HP and the revs and spread it does it at I don't question for one minute, and that's why I'd like to see a graph for it, and for no other reason then that.

The scooterotica forum is a good forum ~ If you havn"t been on for a while that"s your own choice

Nobody is denying the time money effort and skill put into ths s-monza kit ~ The questions & remarks in this topic are all feasible

Chris"s comments are put different to mine but mean the same ~ lets see what the kit does ~ how it performs long term and is it going justify the cost to the road going scooterist .....

Lets just finish off by saying then, that the proof will be in the pudding.......something like that anyway!
I'm sure that we will all be pleasantly surprised with this kit!
Its not going to be for everyone but i think when most people realise what it will do to their bike, a lot of people will want one and may even purchase one ;)
