Whoa up there pilgrim! 😏 ‘Frenzy’ behooves a balanced review…
-
I’ll sign up for a glossy black carbon weave hump - if this all succeeds After some gravel corrugated roads riding my hump fell off at high speed when back on the bitumen Lucky to have noticed on filling up at next gas station so retraced my route some 15 kms & found it Guess the new carbon weave job will sort out even better than getting original fixed
-
When I look down I’ve noticed my barrels are also out of alignment I cope ‘cos studies have found ‘asymmetry’ adds beauty… 🤓

Thanks A Y ’runs good stationary’ is a start - but looking forward to that ride report! Three months later hopefully you’ve managed to get in enough saddle time to add in some further impressions on the impact your gears make. Thanks VeeEleven - your note ‘She just runs better’ concurs with Pressureangle’s impressions. But - do you recall if your valves were incorrectly gapped in any way before your gear installation?? Pressureangle relayed previously his were tight & required adjustment - so this also needs to be accounted for ie., hard starting etc., as opposed to all subsequent benefits being simply apportioned to the gears. Pressureangle’s experience with his drivetrain lash amelioration is highly intriguing - and maybe warrants further observations or analysis by other gear recipients enquiring minds! I’m hoping everyone who bought JC’s gears installs & are able to follow up with their impressions - adds a collective depth of experience to this thread before it merely runs cold without definitive dispassionate conclusions. (Any comparative commentary ie., Valtech, additionally provides clarity to this threads historical value in the future).

Thanks Pressureangle for your kickoff impressions on how adding the gears impacted your V11 - hoping everyone who got this latest batch of JC’s gears chime in some feedback thereby adding up to a worthy collection. But are there crickets? I’ve kinda been surprised at the lack of reports post sale - & was wondering whether that silent void was a telling indication. Maybe it’s a hint that the initial enthusiasm for the purchasing of gears had not sufficiently met owners expectations - or it might’ve meant everyone was out busy riding & enjoying their improved V11 with bigger grins! Who’s happy - why? Who’s not - why? Good, bad, meh indifferent - all impressions will help add to the knowledge bank.

If enough riding opportunities have been had & enjoyed …are you guys planning on adding your impressions? Made much difference?

Are you for real gstallons? ”Don’t be so pernickety.”______________ Anyhoo.. seems if everyone’s more or less on board with Jaap’s sentiment - myself included - I’m not taking umbrage so I’ll just easily move the needle onto the next track… Ah Bob Dylan. Classic. Old political songs are more palatable than fresh protest presumably. Always enjoyed contemplating what Bob had to croon - #1.

Once had an AMG sharing a Eurotunnel carriage returning to the UK with Eric Clapton & his then bright new yellow 575M Maranello & passed the journey time chatting. He’d been enjoying tapping the performance by himself on the glorious roads of France for a few days… His contented smile struck me when I asked how much horsepower it had, “Dunno” grinning he added, “A lot!”

Stock can sound seems decent - would love to hear it higher revs rising

Can’t comment on your actual real life experience of the Irving - but just as a vid comparo this V11 blows it away 😉
-
I acknowledge your experience sticking with AGM - but it’s also worth seeing the snowmobile guys er.., gelling well with them. 🤤 They obviously can work just fine in subzero conditions - & speaks volumes as it would be more life threatening to get stranded out woop woop in the snow! But as you say… “YMMV”

The symptom’s a ‘hiccup’ - but the actual cause is a ‘brain fart’.
-
Fair enough - but in that case just get a LiFePO4 snowmobile battery - massive CCA & designed for extreme cold starts. Operating Temperature -30 °C to +60 °C Capacity vs Temperature 25 °C = 100% 0°C = 94% -30°C = 88% https://earthxbatteries.com/product/etz14c/ EarthX seems to have an worthy reputation on snowmobile forums.
