Yesterday was the first "proper" test of the Big Bore compared to the last RSV I had and the change is massive, the amount of power now available throughout the midrange is awesome, as said before, 2nd gear wheelies are very very common and too easy lol I also now enjoy a different noise, the Big Bore has made the engine note deeper, you can definitely tell, a gorgeous pair of 100mm CP pistons live under the tank Hehe! I've also not noticed any "real"change in fuel economy either, there is a change yes, however, it's not as Big as you'd think, I did a mixture of dual carriage way A Road riding for about 100 miles and a lot of short point and shoot country B lane riding, I still got 120 miles to a tank on the long A road run at ahem speed I'am so happy with the bike, it's a real stunner and I'am very lucky, the front suspension was very low on the front, it was bloody quick to turn in though, I've taken some of that off and it's much better now My riding was utterly sh*t on the south east ride out but I've been clocking up a few miles on my fav B roads now and the confidence is getting there again YaY I've now learned that NO RSV should be without the following mods lol Big Bore 1060 conversion Hooked carbon airbox 57mm throttle bodies Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha |

Top right up mate, great to hear you are so pleased.
Loved the sound of it last time we rode together, deeper, more angry, proper weapon. Looking forward to our next ride.

Hahahaa, cheers Scott, yeah I was on the bends the other day and had a spanish R in front of me, was wondering if it was you lol.
Well, NickyBoy took his first ever pillion passenger out the other day, it was my first time ever carrying a pillion and it was her first time riding on the back of a bike, what a way to start but on the back of a Big Bore 1060 RSV-R huh Hehehehe..... It was a bit weird at first but got the hang of the extra weight fairly quickly and she also learned Very quickly that my 13 year old bike WASN'T 13 year old slow Hahahaha...... Did the Burnham bends and loved it, that rear seat is much comfier than I thought lol NickyBoy
