Turned up to 1bar now
150 miles of pure unashamed massive grin from ear to ear with a few scary bits thrown in!
I still can't believe it's so quick, the speedo looks like a rev counter it moves so quickly!
Once up to 300 miles i'll put the propper oil in and send it over to get mapped. It's not actually too far off already, just running a little on the rich side and i'm sure there's more ignition adavnce to be had, plus i can't quite get the idle right
I'm pretty sure now the shelsley will make it to snett on the 18/19/20th june....

just hit 280 miles, so the running in is virtually complete, few little niggles still but it's been running all day without any problems at all! got the thing idling just about now so it's a bit easier to drive.
Done a little setup work, tyre pressures at 20psi front and 36psi rear, 5 clicks on the front and 12 on the rear shocks and it feels a lot more stable coming off power now
Time to change all the fluids...
