I guess Alan Rollo’s Sprint but whose Monty?

It belongs to a friend of mine who lives about 1/2 mile from me. I know he was looking on the forum earlier so maybe he’ll reply.

Two new fotos of my Formula. Guiseppe or Paolo forgot in 1998 to fix the fuel pipe in the tank. So I had to fix it. Luckily the Formula stopped working just in front of my garage.

Did that come from Vicco Marty ?

I like the motorcycle fitted to the steering damper

X- Phil Murell ?? Ran in the bears back in the 90's ! If it was the bike i threw a leg over........it certainly needed Red to breathe on it

Motor was a mess, red to the rescue. I think it is more a steering damper with a motorcycle attached to it. Right side stand freaks me out.

First ride out since last year. Moving house, office and shipyard. Phew!
Took to much time, so I was really happy when Beatrix burst into life as if she was inching to get out and about again.

Glorious 80 miler before breakfast, damp & cool to start but then the sun steaming the roads off. Single track lanes in second gear great fun, looking for a good photo and literally stumbled across a cracking bike sculpture out side a pub- took the picture , big queue of cars laughing as I was standing in the road blocking it. Rolling the throttle on 3500rpm and riding the torque- cracking day out.

3500 revs? You're being a tad violent with that thing.

To be honest I don’t rev it much past 6000 - 3500 to 5500 is where the magic happens

3500 is when I'm angry.
I've usually changed up by 3000.
You must be doing 70mph before you get to 4000.

I saw 140kmh on a lane the other day- was hanging on like George Formby…..”Mother!”

Turned out nice again...

For the boaties, Lav's happy near a bit of muscle. A couple of latest tech Yamaha 200, 4 strokes should get it on the plane and travelling nicely.....

Highly doubtful Paul. I'm running 36T rear sprocket and 4000rpm = 112kph (just about bang on 70mph). Anyway, nothing wrong with letting an SF rev - they won't break!

I suppose that I'm not far off that with a 40 tooth sprocket. 120km h on the speedo which is optimistic would give me about 4300 I imagine.

[CLEMTOG]

I am amazed that you run a 36T sprocket, I would have thought that first gear would be very tall and all gears far too close together, with no chance of achieveing 8,500rpm in top. I ran a 39 for years on my SF1 and then, for a short period a 38, but it was too tall.You must be on a 630 chain (16/36) which is pretty much the same as a 530 or 520 with 19/40, for top speed that realy is the best.
