I put a new gas flowed 'Y' piece on the KTM Duke today and upped the main jet to a 180. It goes like a scalded cat now. 8)
Bloody should do at £300 for the Y :shock:

Next thing is to put a 40T sprock on the back vice 38T and we're done.

Dan is of course right Adam, I did indeed have to cut the up pipe to get the silencers to go over the 2 locating pegss fully. After the intiial fitting the damn thing came off the pegs and was hanging on by a wing and a prayer. I took about an inch off it and have had no problems since.

The daft thing is that I bought mine secondhand from Peter (Herman) and he obviously had no problem either....Strange things these BeeEms

If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.

Didn't Peter have his engine moved forward in the frame to get a bit more weight over the front wheel to stop it coming up when doing those drag starts :lol:

They do come up second hand from time to time if your lucky. I got mine from the old forumn, hardley used and for a song! Its a great piece of kit but as has been said before, you will want to go and buy some laser end cans as well, I did! Lurverly noise.....
