Frank,2600-2800 rpm's.
So the higher stall speed was with curve #1, correct?

No Scott, I think it was on #5, best to ask Billy.

Your only nearly 9000 behind. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D get your butt into gear Mr Benton.  :D
The last few weeks have been something of a milestone.
The Samauto taking to the track after 15 months of painstaking work by a dedicated crew and helpers.
This thread recording 1,000 post and pushing 27,000 views.
Me reaching 10,000 posts and I've just been informed by Benly Ben, one of the teams junior riders that he has nominated Samauto for bike of the Month, thanks Benny, you should be in bed at this time. ;D
A great big thanks to you all for putting up with me for so long, buy yourself a nice long drink on me. ;D ;D ;D

Sam. ;) off to bed, good luck on the dyno guys. 8)

The nom has a 2nd as well.  Great bike.

Thanks Brian, yours are pretty awesome also.

Everything is good guys
the Motor is still in one piece after a few 10,000 RPM runs
but there was no worry s there
We did 6 or 7 runs
The first 2 were base runs
Bill has all the figures and I am sure he will post later
I will post some video this evening

Sammy, Sammy, Sammy, sounds like your getting a little worked up.
Here's a prescription from Doctor "Bear" that might help before you toddle of to bed with the sh!ts.
Take one teaspoon of cement and harden the fcuk up. ;D ;D ;D

Cheers,
Brian
