    Stijn do not worry I will be around with a Seven until I cannot get out of one but after three years with the Fireblade it is time for a change. Big Nuts is just for non Seven days and autumn and winter days when a roof and heater are needed. Nick always pleased to help - Keith after all my comments about Metro engines how could I even think about it !!

    Does anybody have an Ignition control module for a 919cc Fireblade that I could borrow to see if mine is fbr as I have checked everything else. Problem is no impulse on low tension to the coils so no spark - it all worked before I took the engine out. Or do you know a good Honda motor cycle mechanic in the Guildford area.

    Need to buy one - share your views

    It is a well known law of Blatchat Techtalk that live axels and with sticky (?) tyres do not mix

    It can be done by having Speedy Cables modifying the Caterham speedo and I would also recommend changing to a sensor from Farnell part # 530-293 on the front wheel using the Caterham bracket part # 73450 . Much more accurate and not so difficult to set up as the propshaft ones.

    Need to find a replacement for the trusty Minnow as the wimp's car will not fit . Must have a 14ft x 6ft bed - a Brian James Tilt would be nice.. Any ideas where I might find one ?

    Peter It isn't good news I have two 3" outer rims - sorry but there must be a member of the Max power lot that just must get more rubber down that could use them. Cheers Paul ps live in the self employed camp ain't too bad - well at least the holidays don't have to be negotiated !!

    Peter The standard RS 500 wheels are front 6.5" - 1.5" outer rim and 5" inner; rear 8.5" -2.5" outer and 6" Inner. I have found that 6.5" all round suits and the bearing in the A bracket has stood up to it for three years on slicks but I better check it this winter !! But then I drive alot slower than you ! I do have a couple of rims spare if you like I will check the size.
  18. Paul Thompson
    But it is a Fireblade !! Who needs them ? If you really must then Alcon 2 pots with standard disks and Green Stuff pads are fine.
  19. Paul Thompson
    You have the right sized wheels. The Barnby wheels are a very tight fit and use a sleeved nut and washer. They can be a pain to centre to start with. If you are running ACB10 you need 0 toe in on the front. See you at Eau Rouge

    Silencer

    As an alternative try a quote from Phil Levitt at Good Fabrications 01844 202850 near Aylesbury. Its only stainless steel not Titanium I know but a lot cheaper. Also I think that length is more important than width to reduce noise levels

    FWIW I run a cheapo electic pump from the local factors with the pressure reduced to 1 to 1.5 lbs on my Fireblade with carbs with no problems
  23. Paul Thompson
    Please can you tell me what is so special about the R1 engine. As a matter of record my Ital axel with slicks has done 4000 track miles running a Fireblade engine - perhaps I drive too slowly

    I have one of these if you are interested . DL90 is Race Technology's entry level GPS "black box" data logging system. Put in the simplest terms, it stores a range of vehicle data for later analysis on a computer - the system does not include an in-vehicle display. Can be used at most track days to log data which is viewed "after the event". Cutting edge features of the DL90 include: High accuracy GPS, digital accelerometers, 90 minutes logging time, 2 analogue inputs, 1 digital input, RPM input, wheel speed input. For further details see: http://www.race-technology.com/WebPage2/Products/DL90/DL90Introduction.html
