Sorry mate, been offline the last few weeks or so.  This is a quick iPhone pic looking down from the rear cylinder.  Tried side on but it wouldn't focus on the chrome!

Hi Bretto, been reading your post since last year, congrats mate, looks awesome.

Question, how much of a dick around was it to change the number plate side mount?

Really easy when you have all the parts. The only time consuming part is swapping the deutsch plug from the old number plate wiring to the new one.

G"Day Bretto  nice work .Good reaction time .When ya next racing at Benaraby. Have tha check it out

Floppy I was there over the weekend with the Nitro Funny Cars.  Next meet i will get to is 18th/19th of July.

Done some changes to the bike. Back to the standard bars (looking for speed at the drags) and SE shift-light fitted. Love the apes and will put them back on once I retire the Breakout from racing.

Also back to the old Heavy Breather as the Elite actually lost 5hp on the dyno. It is slightly bigger than the 2013 throttle body but the lip / edge was disrupting air flow. Old one back on and the ponies came back. When time allows I will match the TB to the Elite Heavy Breather and should pickup some more ponies.

I managed to crack the 110mph and did back to back runs at 11.91 so with some tweaks of the shift-light and some practice, I hope to get down to 11.7 next meet.

Just a little wheelie of the line.

thanks for that Brett

I was a little worried about then heating up the oil tank

I think I may have to go with the V&H Big Radius 

[Bretto]

I've done 18000kms, two dyno runs, ride in 35+ degrees Celsius heat and numerous runs on the drags strip and no issues with the oil lines. Don't settle for your second choice as you will never be 100% happy plus every time to start up you blow dust over the sweet paint work.

yes I know what you mean but there are three issues that I know of if fitting the Big Shots Staggered

1/ trimming the heat shields & possibility the chrome may peal from them

2/ excess heat on the oil tank - I have heard on a standard breakout they have burnt the paint on the oil tank

3/ having to space the pipes out on the bottom - the two pipes don't sit parallel & appear to sit out to wide from the frame

I have also seen that they can discolour the paint on the swing arm
 

but I have to admit they look a lot better than the Big Radius


I wonder if there is any performance advantage between the two...............

Rod,

I've never seen or heard of any of the issues you have listed. With two mates also riding CVO Breakout and a few others on 103 Breakout none of us have had any troubles.

The only discolouring I've had is on the lower side of the chrome rear axle cover but this was also the case on my Fatbob running the Big Shots Staggered.

But you got to do what makes you feel happy brother and enjoy the ride.

making some nice power there Brett

how have you gone with the clutch, have you made any improvements there or are you just using the SE Clutch Spring from the Stage 3 kit

apart from head gaskets & cam did you use the stage 3 kit or build up your own

did you do anything to the heads ?
