Bike

This is off topic - but your bike was absolutely beautiful.

I was the black evo before you on the dyno.

Thanks. I absolutely love it. I've had other nice bikes but this is the only one where folks ask to take pics of it at stop lights. Wild!

Very promising approach. I will be doing this ASAP. I really appreciate the link. If this works, I will definitely owe you one.

Sorry, I peaked 2 more psi, from 21 psi to 23, 24. I'm thinking you bov might not be able to hold more than 20 psi??? Vishnu recommended the Forge upgrade, if your mods are more than their stage 1+.

Can a purge valve really cause low peak psi like I'm experiencing?

Open Question: Is there a particular boost pattern (curve on dynograph) that will suggest a particular cause for my boosting issue?

Yes, if andrew did the gears, they are Def on.

and if you find out what your problem is, let me know. Only thing i could figure on mine was the solenoid, as if it was a boost leak, it wouldn't have gotten fixed by tricking the wastegate. Unless the wastegate actuator is the problem

Another guy chiming in to say that bike was off the chain. Unbelievably nice!

Thanks. If I can find my usb cord I'd post some pics so y'all can drool some more...

Honda just released a power up kit (like a sub-400lb bike with 170hp needs more power) that includes cams, full exhaust, intake parts and weight reduction items like lighter fuel tank, etc. I plan to get this shortly just for the hell of it. With the power up kit, the repsol will be much sick[er]! Maybe we can dyno it at dyno4mance.

i almost bought that repsol replica when it came out, but i decided not to trade mine in as it was already expensive. i LOVE that bike though, best replica ever.
