Howdy folks

I have just recently got my mits on an Akropovic end can for my S10. :fireball: I much prefer the look and stryle of the original pipe, but both my originals are rusted, the first one is now in the skip and the one on my bike has started developing rust holes ( I bought it second hand ...

See now, the thing is, I ride every day out to work, which is about 25kms away. I can get there by riding down the tarmac and get there in 15 mins or so :snore: . Or I can ride along the forestry tracks and that can take anything from 30mins to two hours, depending on what kind of mood I am in and ...

I think its about time I posted this ride report here.

I took a solo ride a few months back up to mozambique. The plan was to meet up with friens of mine in a spot called Pomene. I ended up abandoning that trip and doing my own thing instead. I have a heap of work to do at the mo, but I will leave ...

265 with a pillion :omg: .... fuckin hell :hss: mate, now that takes a brass pair!!

I tried the very same run on my way home, and it was still running in top form :yess: So what has changed?? Well i filled the tank to the brim, I made the tank breather hole a little bigger with a hammer and punch ...

OK, so the boss was late coming in to the office so i uploaded this while no one was looking :working:

Its not the best ever quality video so I will have a rework of it tonight at home and see if i can improve on it. In the mean time have a squizz at this test run on a gravel road i ride everyday ...

Just had a brain wave... albeit a small one... I will see if i can mount my point and shoot camera to my helmet and make a clip of said problem. I am not sure how the sound will be, wind noise etc, but might just work?? will give it a go and post it here for y'all to have a lookey looksee.

thanks ...

but a question here, If i am having fuel starvation at full taps, how come my fuel consumption is still very high.

It could be that fuel starvation is giving you less power, so you stay in a lower gear for longer while you are accelerating. Riding in a low gear gives higher fuel consumption ...

Well, I have just spent the evening having a poke about. I have checked the in tank filters.... clean as a whistle :yess:
I have replaced the fuel filter between the pump and the tank for a washable one. The paper filter one i took off looked ok so will see how it goes tomorrow.

the flow rate of ...

Yep, I tried that already. The other day, on a similar stretch of road I was giving it the beans to see if it would run ok, and I got to 180kms with no hassles at all, the road ran out so I turned around to try it again, and it died on me before I hit the 160 mark. But for the most part it dies on ...

Greetings all :wave:

I am having some trouble with my pony these days. And I am now at the point where i catch myself looking at the box of matches and petrol can more often :omg:
So here is the thing,

I have had this problem for a few months even before i started with adding new bits and pieces ...
