I haven't been on any long rides, i tend to ride in town mostly. Have spent most of my ride time tuning this Ninja 500R turbo, which has now become the fastest bike i have ever owned. It boosts to 19 psi at 7,000 rpm, actually it is blowing the wastegate at 16 psi, wastegate does not flow enough. Video here https://youtu.be/o2x2GN9L7o8

That must have been neat to see. Do we know either driver or owner? Larry Smith is the only guy I know who got into the 7s with his H2. Not that I know everyone.

I had a good ride today until a cylinder started missing. Jim, I'm sending you an e-mail.
