Bogie, that Avon got an extra 5mpg at steady speeds over 50mph. Plus it corrected the speedo to 65mph on speedo, GPS 64mph. Didnt notice even a small amount of lost torque or acceleration as the motor is so damn strong. At 130lbs you might not, but you certainly do at double that. I do think Swoozie could hit the 175 mark with the Avon tho..  |

If it wasn't for us the fast lane would rust... V4'S are music to the seat of my pants... Get your V-Max ECU Re-Flashed to Full Power! |

Take off the 50 series tire before you go and install a 55 series and it will give you a top speed of 156 mph observed by GPS.. Thats without trying to recalibrate the speedo or putting in a race ECU. Any bike that will continue to pull like the new max could certainly use another gear or a taller top gear... By using a taller rear tire, you fool the ECU ... The 55 series Avon is the same width as the stock tire but is 10mm taller.. More ground clearance, more top end, more gas mileage, and a perfect speedo reading give or take 1%.. That was discussed. There was a search undertaken to locate a 55 series tyre yesterday,but unfortunatley they came up empty handed.  |

Hi Guys, been a while. Just to let you know Swozzie (Evelyne) is at Bonneville again this year,not riding a VMax this time but on her Naked 06 GSXR 1000 Turbo. This Bike has been "in the build" for over 4 years and after rain outs in Australia for two years at Lake Gairdner she had not ridden it apart from a couple of laps at the local dragstrip Today on a shakedown/175 mph licensing pass she ran 200 mph,on her second pass she ran 205 mph.A goal of hers for a very long time, To say she is a happy girl is a little of an understatement Absolutely brilliant effort for her first time on this bike at "Speed" especially seeing that the bike is only running 5 lb of boost at present. The bike can run safely up to 20 lb of boost Tomorrow she says she is "going to Chuck everything at it" 210 + mph lookout. That's very cool....thanks for the update! Tell her that all the guys over on the StarVMax site are rooting for her!  |

Swozzie ran 211.3 mph yesterday.
 She said it was very smooth & felt quite slow.EV will be running at 7.00am today (Utah time), attempting to back up the 211 and set the record.  After that I expect she will "Go for broke". More news when available. Cheers Cranky |
