I guess it was fitted more than 'hand tight' :)

I can’t see me have it for much longer. 46bhp is great when there’s no traffic but it isn’t when there is. I liked the bits when the road was empty but when following other cars I want about 100bhp more.

If you don’t try these things, you never know.
46 bhp!!!!! How could anyone need that much...there again, my new bike has half as much again as the current one...that's double figures!

What has ‘need’ got to do with anything?

Exceeding 100mph turns the human body inside out!

You can't get past 50mph without the air being sucked out of your lungs anyway, so it's moot.

36mph is enough to unseat a top hat.

Yeah, but it all comes good when you slow down.

Makes a wet squelching sound,like when big John Holmes lanyard hits the lino after a session.

Sold. A worthwhile experiment for £500.
