haha... alot is out, its apretty much a bare shell now, i've got some pics etc. rear arches looked good until i removed the skirts and the mounting tape ripped the arch off both sides lol made me feel a bit better about the rest.

then i saw the flame red gte's in another post and made me feel sad :(

how is having a adjustable pressure reg funny...??

i put my xe on the rollers last week where i used to work and using a wide-band lambda sensor i could adjust the fuelling using the adjustable pressure reg across the rpm range. it started at 159 and after it was running 164. not funny for 5hp...
