(excuse the heavy breathing foreigner!!)

I think that will do me. Especially as eMoto have confirmed that all their Carbon goodies for the 1098 fit the 848 (with the exception of the dry clutch cover!!... really?! ).

Can't wait!! ... can you tell

How could he have recorded that long without riding it?

FFS....Technical people, IT people, anyone with a clue...

Is there any way on this earth, that Youtube vids can be "amended" so that I can watch somehow, as the internet police have restricted the site. It really is becoming an issue...

it doesnt sound very nice there but i think that could be more due to the quality of the recording equipment rather than the bike, does look lovely too .

Try http://208.65.153.253

or just use that IP address instead of the www.youtube.com bit. It might work if they're just using keyword blocking (not likely). Other than that you're pretty well stuffed mate !

Social engineering would be the way round it - get matey with one of the IT admins and asking him to derestrict you.

Dyno run done at Motorapido in Winchester, bike fitted with Termi cans, gave 121.22 bhp @ 9687 rpm and 68.9 ftlb @ 8267 rpm.

No doubt a full exhaust system, with no cats would give a few more.

Not too shoddy for a twin, as good as a good 996, probably close to a 998.

Thought the same- I've heard better sounding 1960's BSA twins !! I assume, like you, the camera audio doesn't do it justice.Bloody good looking bike.
Wish he'd stop panting tho' sounds like his spare hand is busy with something else...

It amused me when I heard a car coming along. I thought it was going to run over his helmet he'd put on the deck.

It's listed as 134hp and 70ftlb at the crank, so that's pretty much spot on...No?
