The GSXR 600,750 & 1000 Hangout. Where All GSXR Riders Chill And Gather!!

[BackMarker]

I just removed the silencers from my LeoVince Evo II ... that's sound in the ears, U feel lilke riding a rocket. The LV is great stuff, below 2K for the slip on with Y-pipe and you can later upgrade to the full system.

 

YES ... this is why I went for the LV and I am happy with it. Vast improvement in the performance. Bought before the end cans and going now for the collector. But actually you have already so a lot of power which you cant fully use, it's just to have it.

 

 

Yeh, LV has a nice sound to it. heard it on a 06R1, better even without the baffle.

 

Horsepower gain with only a slip on is not much, 4bhp at the most. Am i right?

[MC28]

=-;3725756']Was driving along at Gambas Ave when this fellow pillioning a 'caiz' came up and tailgate closely. Dunno wat the hell was he thinking. Maybe he want to show off. Dunno he got think abt the safety of his pillion or simply he juz think his bake very fast.

 

Then pick up abit more speed to the next traffic light. Same thing happen again. Even stop at red light also wanna stop behind me.. Maybe im his long lost fren?

 

Come on man.. Wanna play, i can entertain u anytime. We get a bike of the same category and try it out from 2nd link to Perling.

 

But pls think abt the safety of yr pillion be4 doing something stupid.

 

Yes, its a blue/white gixxer.

 

Wah bro, lucky u not on ur FB39 liaoz...If not that guy

Only 4 BHP ... I dont know the figure but you will feel a big difference. When accelerate it pulls straight up like to nowhere.

 

Here the link for the power diagram on the LV website:

From my point of view there is not much difference for us normal riders between the main brands, just a question what you like in regard to the optics and what you want to spent.

If you like what you see and have the cash to spend, buy it and heck with all what others say.

 

For sure LV has really sweet sound to it. The workshop i go distributes LV pipes so I may be biased cos I keep hearing these pipes when I go there . i am tempted to get one for myself too.

I'm guessing that you do not frequent the tracks or go for spirited rides across the causeway? If yes, go try either of them out first. You'd be surprised how the idling gets back to normal.

[martinSG]

... am going npw for a ride ... will use the ear plugs since the silencers are out. But here in the UAE nobody cares .... U just get a thumbs up from the guys in their sports cars

Haga and Corser move forward at Phillip Island

 

Noriyuki Haga and Troy Corser (Yamaha Motor Italia WSB Team) completed a tough but successful three day test at Phillip Island in conditions which varied from relatively cool to exceptionally hot, finding real improvements while using Yamaha’s YCC-I variable intake system in full race trim.

 

http://images.yamaha-racing.com/photo/news/P20080110133419828.jpg

Noriyuki Haga (Position: 6th – Best time: 1’32.4)

“It’s gone very well. We spent the days testing new parts, the results are good so now I am just waiting for the race. I’ve tried new suspension, new swing arm linkages and many tyres and the variable inlet trumpets. Before coming to Phillip Island I tested the variable inlet trumpets for two days in Japan and the feeling is very good. We can see from the power curve that it is better and as a rider it gives me a better feeling. It gives us increased adjustment and for sure we will use this from now on.” Haga’s personal best time of 1’32.4 was only 0.3 seconds from the best over the three days of testing, while Corser set a 1’32.7, both concentrating their efforts on finding good race settings and tyre options in the constantly changing track conditions.

 

Corser in particular found the surface uncharacteristically bumpy in places, and the final day of testing, run in ambient temperatures of 38°C at times, was hard work for all.

 

As well as successful trials of the YCC-I system, the team evaluated swingarm and linkage developments, with Corser also trying out new braking components. The very high temperatures of the final day are not expected to be experienced at the Phillip Island race itself, on 2 March.

 

Troy Corser

Troy Corser (Position: 7th – Best time: 1’32.7)

“We’ve had a lot to test but we’ve seen a direction - some were good and some not so good. I’ve been working to improve the stability on the bike and we’ve also been trying some new discs to give us better braking. We’ve had a whole range of front forks, rear shocks and a different swing arm link and tyres to test. The actual one lap fast times on the final day didn’t really come but we gained a lot of data, a lot of feedback and have a good race speed. I only spent the final afternoon using the variable inlet but I’ve been able to feel a bit different power. I think we’ve still got a bit of work to do to find the best bike balance here but it’s definitely been a positive test.”

 

Massimo Meregalli (Team Coordinator - Yamaha Motor Italia WSB Team)

"We have to be happy with this test because we are better than last year and the year before and in particular over a race distance our speed is good. Still this circuit remains difficult for us because it offers not the grip level that makes are bike work perfect. It is difficult to say the difference between us and the competition, because we did our long run at around 12 noon, most others did theirs at a different time. We were happy with ours, especially the one from Noriyuki, so we are leaving Phillip Island feeling optimistic. Both riders used the variable intake system properly for the first time and both of them were very happy with it. It is a positive step and for sure we will use it at the first race in Qatar.”

 

Circuit Length: 4.445km,

Temp: First day 20°C, rising to last day 38°C

Weather: Dry, sunny

 

 

 

Parkes hot at home as Foret continues progress

Broc Parkes left his home circuit of Phillip Island with the best lap time of the three day test in the Supersport category, while his new team-mate, Fabien Foret (Yamaha World Supersport Team) also made great progress with the new Yamaha YZF-R6.

 

Parkes set a blistering 1’34.6, some 0.4 seconds faster than his closest rivals, and easily inside the previous lap records. Foret found the set-up changes he needed to set his best of 1’35.2 on the very last day. It had been a tough test because of the every increasing temperature, and the fact that since the last test there, the track has become bumpy in places.

 

A lot of effort was focused on finding suspension setting that worked effectively, as the previous test of the brand new machine was conducted on the smooth and flat circuit at Qatar, in late November.

Broc Parkes (Position: 1st – Best time: 1’34.6)

"It’s been a good test and we’ve been working really well. The engine, chassis and suspension is all working together, we’ve tried a lot of things and it seems that every direction we went in was a good one and we kept improving. The new bike is a big improvement especially the engine, it’s got more torque which makes it more user friendly and it’s also giving us better tyre life. All in all I’m really happy, at the Qatar test I was quickest and I’ve been fastest all three days here in Phillip Island so hopefully we can keep the momentum going until the first race.”

 

 

 

Fabien Foret

Fabien Foret (Position: 4th – Best time: 1’35.2)

"My test was much better on the final day and I did a few fast laps at the end, so I am a bit happier than I was on day one or two. I am still working on the feel and feedback from the front and because of the very hot conditions everyone seemed to be looking for grip. Turn one was very bumpy, but the grip was the biggest thing for me in the heat.”

 

Wilco Zeelenberg (Team Coordinator - Yamaha World Supersport Team)

"The test went OK even if the conditions changed each day and the track was quite bumpy in places compared to the experience we had at the Qatar tests. It was very smooth and flat there. It was 20°C on the first day, 30°C on the second and then 38°C today, so we have tested the new bike in every condition except rain. We had to work hard for three days to find the best suspension settings and we still have work to do to be exactly where we want to, but we still have the time and space to do that. We have been fast, so that is not an issue. We also did some successful long runs to choose tyres.”
