Featured 2018 Speed Triple Rs – Ownership Thread

Another explanation.

 

I see they don't mention valve overlap, which is typically tuned for effective scavenging at high rpm. Could there be an optimised situation for bmep at lower revs with the longer rear section I wonder / helped by a baffle if pipe is shorter ?

 

I was watching tv last night flicking channels and there was a program on women's orgasms etc. Apparently a woman's orgasm is 10x as strong as a man's. If a man was to experience the strength of orgasm a woman does, he may not be able to cope and it could even kill him ! Apparently its all those nerve endings in the critoris (Japanese version) but they also mentioned that women can have orgasms by many different means (some excluding the critoris....??)
Hey, I was just watching and learning and can only hope I don't have the unfortunate experience of having such a dangerous orgasm.

If I did some tests on this I feel I might come up with different "facts" to the lady expert in the program

You can't beat actual experience to confirm stuff !

 

I get the feeling that ellerslie thinks it may not be due to back pressure......

 

Whatever gave you that impression?

 

Do you need to torque the screws, if so what is the setting?
Cheer

 

No doubt there is a standard setting but nip them up should be ok . Not like your sump plug or axle nut in terms of safety.

 

That's a good trick to keep from losing the mounting bolts down in the tank.

Something I've always done regarding fasteners on bikes is to add a drop of low strenght thread locking fluid to the threads. Permatex or Wurth brands both work equally well in keeping fasteners from vibrating loose w/o over tightening, but can still be easily removed with hand tools.

 

So I’ve been looking at exhausts for the my RS, nothing else floats my boat as much as the low boy, I know arrow don’t do one for the RS so I bought a can only on eBay and I’m taking it to a local firm to make a link pipe, I’ll update further down the line to see if it looks/sounds decent.

 

I think the under seat Arrow cans are very similar to the low boy can and could possibly be used in place and linked to the cat with a short pipe and a fabricated mounting bracket to the right hand footrest bolts.
Could possibly pick up a cheap pair with a damaged left hand can.

 

Not yet mate, it’ll be a new year job, as soon as I’ve sorted it I’ll update

 

Move the bike 1mtr, inspect, and I think you'll find you've fitted that cap upside down.

 

It's annoying when amateurs work on their own bikes, then do nothing but complain when it all goes wrong

 

If Rolls Royce can keep there hubcap badge the right way up all the time then surely Triumph should make more effort with there valve covers
