Hi everyone.
Do people run their henchcraft minisprints without the wing?
Interested how they behave or are they only good as a wing car.
Thanks

And I'm not supposed to change gears by our rules as we have car engines running with us. Slipping the clutch sounds scary.

Ok. Now I'm totally confused. The throttle bodies (I have 2) don't look like they ever had more than one butterfly. The variable tubes on the set I just got seem to have a gap under them when...

Hi everyone
Is there a kit to get rid of the drive by wire system?
Has anyone used the variable velocity stacks that are on the r1 originally?
Thanks
Andrew

Water will turn the opposite way to you guys. Simpson's did it years ago.

Spent hours looking for a TRE (timing retard Eliminator). They don't have them for Yamaha.

Thanks again everyone.
We wanted to try a new velocity stack. Will have to stay up late and call Brody. I'm on the other side of the planet (Australia). We aren't allowed to change gears although...

Tried the jumpers first without success. I know which wire should have the signal but it doesn't. If I hook it to one of the coil positives does anyone know if that will work. Don't want to blow it...

I have just got my first winged minisprint with an R1 and need a basic setup to get started. Tyre pressures and toe would be a great. Anything else is a bonus.
