Cheers John...straight from the horses mouth...(no offence intended....!!).

What d'ya reckon to the Pipercross filter comment? I put one in the wife's Ninja 250 and with the replacement end can it seems to run a bit perkier, especially in the midrange.



P.S. Thanks for sending the HiFlo filter @tu* but could you slap your staff around a bit for me...

I asked them to send it to my work addy (as supplied in email) so I could fit it mid week and give the bike a few days on a fresh filter before the date with dyno.

But they sent it to my home addy...:bang: so I didn't get it till Friday night.

dyno aint worth a wank, unless you are comparing mods to your bike, in the smae temperature, same day, same humidity , etc etc etc

I know, I'm carefree on the issue, as John said, and I'm just saying that when I bought mine I thought they were "all", like this. Seems they just got weaker and weaker and slower and slower as years went by.
I'm happy with me cock though .... @tu*

Back in the day, the text on the bottom of my number plate read "Restricted to 156 bhp .... Please pass ..... ".
