its my sisters 18th so i m smashed i dont know if u have a law on drink forum writting if u do i should b in jail... anyway the can is as small it could posaly be because it is spring clipped all the way through (full tyga sports) it rattles and without the backet it would rattle like crazy and drive me insane....i put that air intake myelf sould i take it out for the dyno?? it is connected straight to the original snorkel so it would be easy to bring it back to orignal due to the fact that air intake mods are crtical to this type of bike....

p.s what speed should i be doing in first gear at red line (14500rpm) in km/h if possible just to se if it is running right....i would like to know the standrd please just to compare...i wish i had a dyno in my garage would make backyard mods so much easyer to tweak and experiment with......you guys have bee awesome by th way i have learnt so much from this forum

That squashed tube isn't standard is it?

Should have a snorkel on the airbox and let the bike breathe form the still air in the cavity between headsock and snorkel - don't try to force it in. It sucks it in.....

If it has standard gearing/tyre sizes it will be going the same speed as every other rvf at 14500rpm no matter how it's running!
