Installed it, looks good, bike runs, seems rich! That&#8217;s a good thing. So back off for a quick Dyno run today<\/p>\n<p>That. Of course. Went poorly. Totally different \u00a0to what it was doing here, and now making 50hp. To add injury to insult, it was also back to off the charts lean.<\/p>\n<p>It was at this point that I really wanted the movie scene. Bike on fire, walk away slowly. \u00a0Of course, that just leaves me without a bike so I settled for Bosque Brewery Scotia, which is rather like just setting your brain on fire and walking away. But tastier (or at least I assume so).<\/p>\n<p>After a couple of these, my &#8216;give a fuck&#8217; was dropping to a better point AND I got good news. Chasing an air leak, and apparently potentially located. The bad news? No time to test it and see if it is fixed before Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>However, it&#8217;s he first clear sign of there is a problem, and we have fixed it. Tuesday will tell.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8230; not that I especially want to even think about parting, but today managed to be about the most depressing day in my Daytona ownership.
