LSG, Your timing was impeccable. I wuz getting a little queasy;
Getting back to the subject..............
I was one of the Beta testers on this flash. (and all of Steve's previous Flashes)
I was "particularly" impressed by this one.
Steve really did some MAGIC on the Mountain Runner.
Until now; I kept my mouth shut, and monitored the discussion's; {to see what the new guys think about the Mountain Runner}.
Most of what I've seen is comments on how hard it accelerates and how fast the bike goes.
"Heck", that wuz the EZ part.
I have to tell you;
Ya'll are missing the point of this new Flash.... Steve's previous Flashes, {Particularly the EVO} "already" improved the power and acceleration. {Thank you Steve}
The purpose of this new Flash was to improve how the bike rides the curves....
NOTE: The changes he made this time also make the bike easier to ride in normal circumstance's. {like commuting}.
ie; He did all of this by improving the initial Roll-on Smoothness, controlling the torque curve, and enhancing the engine braking.
Ya'll will notice, there has been little discussion about this BIG THING!!!
Lastly; What ya'll "also" seem to be missing is; these changes make "You" smoother.
All the Old Guys {like me} already know this, but {B'cuz I'm a nice guy} I'll lay it out for you New Guys..
Smoother is Faster!! Thinkaboutit..
Ride safe, Ted
Let the FLAME's begin.. Buncha Rookies!!!
