I swear hitting the lil mini powerband, approaching top speed on a rinky dink moped feels like you're about to be unalived lmao. At this point top speed is literally being dictated by the rev limiter...pretty good.

ECU Tune Install - Speed Triple Mods & Maintenance 4
Переглядів 5 тис.9 місяців тому
I wouldn't call this a how-to, but here's first time doing a tune flash on a fuel injected bike. Using TuneEcu, you can find pre made tunes to install on your Triumph bike (and some other European models as well). Since this bike has the full exhaust and intake, she really needed it. I also do an LED bulb install. My social media! Instagram - theillestrator_nyc Facebook - faceboo...

I've purchased yet another derelict motorcycle with plans to build something cool out of it. This Yamaha Virago XV920 is a non-running basket case with no paper work but with time (and money) it'll be a sick V-twin custom. The original Virago (XV750 and XV920) was always an oddball because they don't really fit the cruiser look well, but they have gained a second wind in recent years as the uni...

    This era speed is notorious for starting issues due to the battery not having enough CCA and are known to damage the sprag, lithium batteries are a recommended swap from many forums. The other issue is batteries get swapped out for lead acid and others, but aren't designed to be laid flat which the speed triple install is.

    I just cant deal with the idea of $2200 a pop service and that is only if everything is still A okay who knows how much some are paying if they have to tear off the tops of the motor....or worse. I have heard riders mentioning thier ducati buddy's bike "sucked a valve" but the actual rider themselves when you finally see em many weeks later? They dont seem interested in discussing. I think I'll just keep the Ducs out of my own life thank you....and Ferrari and Mazaratti too!

    Hey man, you have an immense amount of knowledge on these bikes. I live upstate from you, in catskill. I just picked up an absolute beauty 1989 k100rs-se. For free!!!!!!! Was left on a property for years, abandoned in a shed. Was given to me by the property owner. It seems to be in really good shape. Maybe somehow we can link up and go over this bike. I'd happily pay you for your time. I have a truck and could bring the bike to you. Or you could take a nice ride up here. Anyhow, I'd love to meet you and learn some cool shit about this bike.

    Njoy the Bike, I also have an 07 Triple it’s the best looking bike for me too! I changed the shiftpedal for a Yamaha YZ 80 pedal. I changed my stator and regulator and removed the connectors. Made a direct connection with the wires because the old connectors were burned. Put a lot of Carbon on my bike too!

    How "necessary" were they really back in the day, if only 2 Merc race cars ran them? I hear the metallurgy argument but really.. 2 race cars... that's it. I love the system, it has an Industrial Revolution clickity-clack contraption appeal to it, but $3000 in valve servicing after 13,000 miles? The system needs to address the harshness of how it works. One could say the problem is METALLURGY.

    The rotary lives on, in just about the coolest bike ever made, Michael Crighton formerly of Norton motorcycles, stuck with the technology he now makes his own bikes and the Crighton cr700w has solved, virtually all the rotary's flaw's, the bike weighs 130kilograms and produces 220bhp from a double rotar the bikes fame doubles as an oil tank and provides liquid cooling for the outside of the engine and they use a ventury effect from the exhaust to air cool the center of the engine, in the words of Guy Martin * fking hell it's fast*
