  1. Had one and it was a beast!! But put it in a corner hard and it felt like it had hinges in the frame. Evil handling bike, but in a straight line it was horsepower heaven for it's day.

     

    I only have 20 miles on a CBX. Fun ride but it had the high bars on it.

  2. The modern engine typically has variable valve timing and even cylinder deactivation. The engine management system can control when, how long and, in some cases, how deep the valve goes into the combustion chamber. If an intake valve is dropping into a combustion chamber with combustion byproducts or unburned fuel, the valve might be exposed to the precursors that cause ­carbon build-up.

    Some have blamed the positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) systems for leaving an oily film on the intake valve that is then baked into carbon. Some blame the valve overlap during the intake stroke that eliminates the need for an EGR valve.

     


     


  3. I wish some of the other races got this much TV coverage. I would 

    have liked to see more of the Suisse race.

     

    Cav's Cervelo is one nice looking bike.

    Looks like Bianchi updated their bike.

     

    Who do you think is going to end up with the climbers jersey?

  4. but in the nutshell he wanted me to fix things on his car that I (my shop) was not reasonable for. There was no reasoning with man.

  5. It's $160 per lb.

     

     

    As for those captivating meters: Unlike analog VU meters—which, at best, provide a rough indication of power output—the ones used in the 2HP-D are more akin to the RPM needles used in Ferraris. “The new virtual meters are amazing,” Kessler says. “They have no mass, so we can use two pointers to accurately track and report instantaneous power and average power at the same time.” Talk about mesmeriz- ing. Watch for the first review of the 2HP-D in our sister publication Stereophile, slated for early summer.
