my condolences. in one of the articles, it said he was a cmc. what a tragedy, makes me so mad. i hope this kid really gets it.
He was... my former CMC, retired. A hardcore pain in the ass, but I certainly wouldn't wish this on him. Or his wife, who is a heck of a gal. Shitty shitty day. |

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.
Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

SD is sorted. Care to expand on that a bit? I mean that's great and all but is there more of a story or is it just enough to say that it works better. [moto] |

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.

I loaded a different map onto the ecu using TuneECU. About 98% of the on/off throttle snatch and low engine speed hunting is gone now.

Fan f'ing tastic! That throttle snatch was really getting to me. Sounds like the bike may actually be rideable now.  |

One of the CAM guys picked up a Daytona the other day. Did some work setting up his suspension on it and got to take it for a spin on one of the favorite roads today. I had forgotten how planted that bike can be.

I was going to ask you how that suspension tuning went. You can always get one of the new ones with the good Ohlins stuff right from the factory. |
