Of course! It's purely racing-developed application that adds minimum of 3HP gain. it' is WHERE it was applicated that matters.

As well, for HP gains, don' forget to buy "liquid compression" fuel additive, to raise compression by factor of 2.

I think I need to get my air conditioning recharged, is this something I can do or do I have to take it to a specialist?

I'll be by to fix it sometime in October.  At which point you'll want to make an appointment to fix your heater, too.  Unfortunately I'm backed up for heater repairs until late April next year.

The bike I rode for the past 29 years has two funny rubber coated pegs sticking out on each side. Somebody told me they're ment to rest your feet on. Before I try and make a fool of myself, I would like to have a second opinion. Anyone?

no,you can't rest your feet on those pegs,they are for aerodynamic purposses.....if you DO put your feet on there during riding it will trow the balance way off...

I think those pegs were actually an early racing development. Kinda like training wheels for bike racers, if the pegs scraped the track you were about to fall over........... ;)
