A Geep is my GPZ. Coming alive at 7k is a bit of a problem in the real world. Torque rules the road really, at least in the twisties. Unless of course it's a track or a racecourse. That's why those Harleys do well or out the corners, even the big dogs.
Even with the new motogp the Ducati are competing well with the factory two stoke bikes of Repsol Honda.
The racing today it's a brawl compared to the old days, as much as I liked the old racing. Today it's just nutty great!

Going to try the heavier arms on the advance unit. Doesn't seem to quite make full advance.

Hopefully they'll get the mileage back and not be too lean on the bottom.

Wasn't going to full advance. Also seem to have a electrical miss somewhere. The new slides may cure the idle problem. We'll see.
