Hi,

A couple of mates took the bikes out to Donington Park circuit the other day. I
took the S3. Photos here if you're interested:

The bike performed horribly. I'd just had it all tuned up and it's great around
town. At pace it sucks. Before I went, I put some replica Silentums on to keep
the noise down (it was a 98db day). The old pipes were handrolled and basically
straight through. I asked the you who serviced it if he'd recommend refuelling
and he said it would make no difference. Whether he was wrong or the bikes just
way ut of tune, I don't know. I could barely get 80MPH out of her! It woudl
get up to about 5k RPM and start to bog out. 5k RPM was the limit. On some
straights I couldn't get it over the road speed limit! I think I need some dyno
time. Very disappointing.
