I had already done a fair amount of work on her before we fell on a dusty corner late last year. So I decided to rip off the plastics and take a rattle can to her and give her the TZR look.
The final transmission I changed and the carbs had been fiddled with a while ago when I changed the exhaust and put a K&N in the air box so she was putting out almost 106bhp 18months back.
I ripped out the air box and put in the cone filters (sorry I dont remember the make, my local mechanic ordered them for me he is much better than a bike parts shop and cheaper) but yes had to put in some more jets (a whole lot of work I give thanks to mr Haynes for helping me achieve) She runs sweet and fast, sounds incredible but needs a while to warm up and sucks on pertol rather more than before.
I will stick up some pics asap - If i can stick a vid up I would let you hear her.
She can take out a Street triple on acceleration and corners just as sweet but I really want to stiffen up the suspension :b
