Sure it's not an air leak? My T509 used to pop and bang excessively on overun, even spitting out big flames, until I put silicon sealer on the link pipe joint.

Sir TT: Funnily enough Ade I looked at the joint between the headers and link pipe just now and thought that may be the cause
I'd spend a few mins sealing that first. Made a huge difference on mine. It still popped and banged nicely, but not excessively like before, didn't shoot flames out anymore, lol.
I'll add it to the "things to do" list whilst it's in pieces.
So far it's; That Repair nose fairing Rub down all plastics clean it (it's f!$%ing filthy under all the plastic) Fit SS fuel connectors Adjust the angle of the front brake lines to stop them rubbing the mudguard Seriously consider fitting a 2002 on 955i engine, loom, ecu, injectors and airbox (If I can find the necessary £s) Fit rad and oil cooler guards
Anything else I may come across in the next week or two!

Most faired bikes are. Makes me laugh when people decribe their bike as mint 'cos they've given the plastics a wash and polish, but when you look under the surface it's horrendous.

Looked at it wistfully whilst wheeling out the Fireblade (they don't 'alf go) PS. Don't normally ride on a Sunday 'cos there's too many bimblers about, but in Jan, when there's a weather window, you just gotta do it!

I was in Settle with my last gf one Sunday and two guys rolled in on identical Repsol '08 Blades. And I mean identical, right down to the same model of race can. It looked sooooooooooooooo gay, lol. You just knew they were riding home to have some serious man on man bum sex. How we larfed, lol. Happy days

Today at long last we finished the RAM air intake/nose cone/clock bracket assembly. We think we are the first to RAM air into a Street Triple same as the Daytona.
o.k. this thread is stupid...like on face book , I don't give a rats ass if you polished your bike or changed the oil or have had a spat with your bitch about you spending to much time working on your bloody triumph and not with the children , ....get a fcuking life will you?
Its Fret today once more: You're putting your bike in the loft?
Sigh...
Got to add more insulation to the loft and then board it out for storage. Unfortunately in order to do that I need to store the insulation until I can do this.
Walked out to the garage turned on the lights checked the batt tender green, turned the lights off and went back into the house. The missus has decided we have errands to run today. Ho Hum
Fitted my 1050 Zard to the 955i S3. Little bit of modification to fit, started around 11am, finished around 4pm but overall very happy with the fit and sound.
This weekend ; Stripped swingarm and greased all linkages with rocol sapphire blue grease. Replaced hub bearings Painted rear wheel black (instead of that fugly graphite) Fitted R&G shock sock Bought Bridgestone BT016 tyres, Fitted Pazzo flip levers Started painting spare bodywork
That's it so far, but need to get my finger out as spring isn't really that far away
