went to Daves today to see what was on the bench and the 1100 was just being rolled onto the Dyno and it made 107 hp at the wheel not bad for 36 years young with Honda claiming 115   |

Another reason for the trip to Dave's was to see how Paul the fella with the lovely 400/4s wet weather  bike is coming on after an engine strip down to replace a broken gear when the clutch was seized and there she was finished  temp image hostand Dave came up with an idea of a 250 Dyno shoot out so will have to ask Ian along on his Black 250 ,me on the mighty silver Sd ,Gill on her 250 ninja,daves black rs 250 and Paul's humble 250 u Watch this space!! |
