Don't call me Shirley!! Yeah, well done I was thinking the same thing. It's the leg action. Everyone follows where Bob has gone before – even Valentino is doing it now, though he does it round the corners.

'Backie': a ride on the back of your bike or to use strange words again, we would also say a 'lift' on your bike ok – hop on then

never mind I got my own ride

Billiant JR! You got it. The perfect catchy phrase for the plate on Guzzirider's new Fatboy.

That jacket, that pate the true source of global warming is revealed.

...torso of rippling steel is the phrase you were searching for

Give us a backie mate?

Were the cans already installed? Because to fit them you do have to change the original hangers. The new ones are a bit of a bodge, with an adapter plate. I have Guzzi's small tail rack and as far as I remember, if I now want to use it with the higher level cans and brackets, it's not just a straight fit anymore. However it's probably easy enough to adapt. The other problem may be that the pipes are too high for the bags? If so, a solution could be to just use the original brackets/hangers. This will lower the pipes so that there's room for the bags and also means that the rack fitment is straightforward again.

Hey, hold your head high. Think: *Girl Power* and don't forget, *You're not just a Moderator, You're a Philosphy* or do I mean a Psychosis I do get those mixed up

click on here for MM though I don't think it's what you're looking for

just one word: 'astroturf'

Ya fully configurable for any road or race condition. It'll be better when they catch-up on the japs and make the valves electronically controlled. They look good jet-coated too nice job they're working on one for the Griso Pete Roper thinks his is better though (I'm not doing technojap valves, says he, just give me pipes with plenty of volume):

Wowsie! Hot stuff. Say no more 'til everyone's had a chance to see it.

(Voxan photo) Uh – you'll not be happy now, after that race. Better get those black lace-up boots back on and stay with the Voxan, Sete.

Don't you know that the pictures on the radio are always better than those on tv? I know you guys have been brought up with 'KLVJPRC Whizzy Bang HometownOnTheAir' or somesuch broadcasting service, but surely you can tune to The World Service ? (click the audio button)

At least he's the only one riding on the correct side of the road.

>What did you use? >Ummmm lemme check the wheelie bin- back in a mo. Its right at the bottom- will ask Mal tomorrow- I borrowed it off him after he used the first half of the bottle. Looks like it coulda been meths, or Buckfast maybe.

How was I to know about that stuff? I only watch the BBC. On the radio. I'm satisfied that the 'evidence' was supplied, so Jaap is exonerated.

Well you didn't need to explain that bit did you? We're all aware that criminals are rampageing far and wide, where they will, unhindered....

I'm not convinced that these are all meeting the requirements of a proper 'Catchy Girl Phrase'. Where better to look for inspiration than to those girl power freedom fighters, the Spice Girls? Take a phrase from their catchy girlpower anthem: "I wanna I wanna I wanna I wanna I wanna really really really wanna zigazig-ha." A perfect mantra to accompany a Buell Blast's wheezing, churning starter motor on a cold winter's morning. "We're more than a band, we're a philosophy," said Sporty Spice. That's not just for girlies – Its Another Perfect Strap-Line for the V.11 Forum! Can't remember what the other one was from a while ago: must start that thread properly someday before these are lost to posterity. Or maybe I did and I've just forgotten, oh dear, zigazig-ha humm la-la-la

I knew you'd do that, you crazy googler.

Sete is moving to Voxan! At least he looks happy now.

Probably the girlfriend too.

John, can you take a minute to answer a question that's been raised before? There is obviously big room for improvement with the stock 'road legal' ECU. Do you have some experience of the MG 'race' ECU that is supplied with the Ti. cans kit? If so, what do you think of the way it's tuned and is there always room for further improvement by adding a PC? I imagine that the Ti kit ECU must be mapped pretty much the way it should be if it weren't for the factory having to put out road bikes that conform to various legislation (so the stock ECU isn't optimum for 'just riding' performance considerations). I'm very happy with the MG kit – the bike runs well and sounds very nice. It is still pretty rich at idle, but I don't know that that's much of a problem. I don't drive the bike at idle. Have you found that there are still bad areas that become obvious, when compared to the kit PLUS additional tinkering from a PC? You mention individual cylinder mapping. Do all tuning centres do the same stuff and is the setting-up / tuning process fairly foolproof – so it's guaranteed that the bike will be improved?
