    Big up for HM Racing at Edenbridge. Dropped very sick bike off yesterday, thinking it wasn't gonna be right for Belgium next Wednesday. Tony had it on the Dyno today and phoned me to pick up as I was making a coffee for Rob at 1530. Got there at 1645ish and bike was ready.
    Problems were, running very lean and a stuck open choke valve. Standard needles stayed in, 120 Keihin mains replaced with 126 Dynojets (4 sizes up!!!) The best bit was, as we walked in yesterday and asked Tony to sort it with the standard RRW silencer on and the 3" diameter slashcut I'd just made, Tony said" No way is that gonna work as well as the standard can "!!! He tried it anyway and it was exactly the same. The massive flatspot at 6500 revs has gone and there is now an extra 10BHP in the middle of the rev range, though less at the top end, which I never use. Thankyou Leila , I'm well impressed with HMR.:). Thankyou Rob for the lifts and some nice roads.

    glads it's all sorted now :D and just as i said about a gummy valve :D

    ok i also said just about everyother part i could name :D but fire enough shots and your bound to hit something :hah:

    roughly how much was it ? as i know Liela was impressed with the price as it might be worth me thinking about having the 400 played with :D
    and maybe i should have a pipe made as 10 bhp isn't bad at all :thumbsup:

    I used to use HMR, always happy with their work, but they moved away from me :( so I switched to Bob Farnham Tuning, who have been very good with service and prices. :thumbsup:
