That should not be a problem as the bike would already be in motion. It just has to be level at rest. And you'd have to keep it pointed straight ahead. Jim ...
I'll bet it would be a blast, but I'm not sure how accurate it will be. Wheelies would throw off the "accelerometer". Mike Luddy, Jr. ... ...

Messagecool! i can get it pointing straight ahead...but grendel doesn't like keeping his front wheel down, so that whole "parallel to the ground" thing might...
Wolf - I've got one if you'd like to borrow it. The toughest part is securing it to the bike - it needs to start parallel to the ground and pointing straight...
has anyone tried the g-tech/pro accelerometer on their bike? they claim it's good to 1.3G, which should cover most bkes, but they declaim any specific...
Messagewell, the first two items are somewhat exotic, and the last was plain hyperbole. all were somewhat tongue-in-cheek. ultralight pushrods are aluminum,...

Wolf - You have a Harley engine -- part of the charm is the noise. Want it quiet? Buy a V-Rod... ;-) Seriously, there's not much you can do with the Harley...

The maps on Sporttwin are just copies of those on www.dynojet.com and they only work with the Power Commander. Wolf is looking for a way to modify the original...
WWW.sporttwin.com has quite a few different maps available for download. These maps cover almost every possible configuration of intakes and exhaust setups on...
Too loose is way better than too tight. Another reason given is that if you should pick up a rock between the pulley and the belt it stands a better chance of...

1) as you mention, intake/exhaust is a compromise as the wave differs based on engine rpm. Those of us with the White Bros. or Supertrapp can change the...
So are we in agreement that too loose is far better than too tight? Mine seems plenty loose when the bike is parked (I have scuff marks on the swingarm) but...
