Any tips on starting Superbikes when hot? I find I have to trottle alittle for the engine to catch, but it sometimes just cranks very weakly, giving all sorts of wierd sounds (pop, kank, BANG~! )....

 

Anyway, my bike now does 17.9km/litre, mostly street riding, 1/4 highway riding 90km/h on 5th gear.

sounds like she got an attitude manz.. haha..

btw.. she got a better milleague nw...

Yo Dukes,

 

Like to check with you guys:

 

Whats the speed for your top gear or 5th gear at 4000rpm?

[Guest nE0]

Speed @ 6th gear 3000rpm - 90km/h

Speed @ 5th gear 3500rpm - 90km/h

 

I never exceed 3000rpm in top gear in Singapore roads, I usually cruise on 5th gear at 90km/h. Engine doesn't feel bogged down when revved slightly more. I think 4k rpms on top gear is 110km/h.

Think more or less the same.

 

I am not using stock sprocket ratios.

Doing standby next week but shouldn't be a problem.

Meeting up where?

Can't wait to see ur 996!

[Guest Reddevil76]

Guys, I need some help. How to differentiate between the different 996 models?

 

Like mine comes Showa Ti-Nitrate coated forks, Ohlins rear, and Marchesini 5 spoke wheels. The tail fairing says Ducati 996S, but my log card say 996 Biposto.

 

But I surf on the net, Biposto models does not have coating on the forks, have a Showa rear (though my previous owner could have changed the rear) and have the heavier Brembo 3 spoke wheels.
