    I did Daz but not for long, beautiful day and the HM QS is working extremely well..

    Do you think that guy in the video has done anything to that Repsol because it really did keep up the that BM, far better than i thought it would??

    What settings have you set your qs at? Mines at sensitivity of 60 and kill at 62. It does lurch a little low down but it's perfect at 8k revs which is the maximum I'm revving it to now :rolleyes:

    I think more than likely the bkade will he pretty much stock by the bm will probbably of dropped a tooth
    On the front sprocket as they are no where near the speed of the bkade bottom
    And midrange . This will of mean it will of lost top end speed. Even with the bm showing flat out it wouldn't of been a true reflection .. That's my guess . My bm always felt flat bottom
    And mid if I rode it back to back with the blade. Top end power was phenomenal tho. Like a 200 brake horse 600

    Wish I was minted and could afford to keep them both :mad:

    I found it very hard to watch this and think that that behaviour is out if order. Everyone knows that if you have all that crap hanging from your keys, it can scuff up the top yoke!

    I have my sense at 70 and kill time set at 61 and the changes are smooth, i don't use the qs at low revs to be honest mate. When riding at normal pace i will just change gear as normal using the clutch and killing the throttle, however when i have my race head on it qs all they way:p I don't know why i do this it just feels right for me....

    Ha I remember when I was young and silly enough to ride back from WSB at Silverstone like that :(... shortly before passing a policecar and then running out of petrol 3 miles up the road as my 600rr fuel gauge decided to lie.

    Makes me cringe a little now when I see them passing over the rumble strips at 180mph, onto hard shoulders that (in the uk at least) are normally full of gravel and wheel nuts lol. All whilst dressed in jeans and a hoody.

    Bet it was fun though :p

    Good point Matt... I've not been using the qs low down either .. I suppose once I'm opening the sp up more the kill time will have to be dropped a little . I'll increase the sensitivity as you hsve and see how she goes. Last day off today and it's wet :(. Typical. Think im going to go to some dealers and do some tyre kicking lol

    I'm going to have to leave it I'm afraid. I'm not going to be able to get up to you anytime soon, and my fiancé is not working so my savings need to stay saved for the foreseeable until she is better :-( Sorry for the messing around.

    299kmh is 185.75mph, so that proves the point of max speed as per manufacturers agreement of 186mph.

    +1 on the "riding in the hard shoulder"...screw that, like playing Russian Roulette doing that over here.
    and that lanyard flapping about would get right on my tits too....
