I dont think there is a dyno big enough to run an X11 on it probably wont register anything anyway

Just a power readout I believe.

it'll be fine if you let me blip the throttle to 6000rpm, if it passed pembreys tests then it'll be fine on a dyno

Might be up for this after all, will know in a few weeks but I'd like to get an idea of how she's running and any tweaking that could be benificial.

Don't forget your ear muffs.

Does Jamie's Dyno machine look at your fuelling? My bike doesn't start well (it made me late for Paintball ) and I think it's probably a rich fuel mix sooting up the spark plugs, as I changed the plugs and it was better for a short while.

What about on a different night organising either Jamie from Bike Worx, or someone knowledgeable in the club to give the less well informed of us a bike maintenance lesson. I'm not talking about changing plugs, pads & filters, more like adjusting valve clearances, renewing brake fluid, carburettor balancing, suspension setup.

Perhaps people could list what they want to know, or people offer to put on a training evening. If someone has a carb balancing kit, perhaps we could get together and balance several bikes on the same night?

sounds a good idea but i'd be suprised if a mechanic who runs his own business would want to give up his own time to freely train us on how to maintain our bikes as that would put his business at risk
