If you live in Texas (Durangokid) have a look at http://www.apriliaforum.com/index.htm and check out the offer for larger Throttle Bodies.

I live in NY, but I was eyeing that offer too! Regardless, I'm really interested to see what kind of power the enlarged throttle bodies make.

It would only be a slight hassle for me to take the bike down to Austin. I have some friends who live there. I can't imagine that they wouldn't be able to find someone to do it. I just don't wish to spend $600 bucks on the kit right now.

You'll find that someone has already taken up the offer.

Dale,

Saw that deal, smokin'. Problem is that cash is REALLY tight right now. Besides, I need a couple of other things first... like a new set of tires and crash bobbins. On top of that my insurance rates more than doubled to $1365 from $600 due to a recent low side.

Weather is beautiful here in the Lone Star State. It's a shame that I haven't had time to ride since before Christmas.

If anyone is looking for some scuffed body work, I have an ad in the classifieds under cstarrett.

Someone small but loud of gob may have some comments re above mentioned, there's a link here someplace to MoreHorsesNirvana

Shocking old bean I daren't say. I am myself gobsmacked when confronted with the above mentioned comments re.


As to your generous suggestion of a link to MoreHorsesNirvana, pray tell, how does an equine paradise have any relevance to the price of tea and crumpets at Lords? Yours ever,


A wicked sorted geezer.
