And how would one be able to read all that information while driving the bike? Answer: either moving at a crawl to minimize the danger of not looking at the road ahead or parked! Either way, what's the point!

 
John, the guy that owns the Strom, is very helpful on the Strom forums. He's the W/C of the Strom, to make a comparison. Anyone that would take a Strom over 150 also has muchos huevos............. :D

 
I was wondering if he ever actually rode it. If I did that much farkeling I don't think I'd have the time.

 
Tommy,

He's ridden it quite a bit. I'm not sure if this is his first Strom, though. He may have had an earlier model, too. He did a lot of testing of exhaust & intakes mod's. I don't recall what his best 1/4 time was, but way better than stock. With intake, exhaust, and offest key for timing, he picked up 14 h/p at peak, IIRC, and about 8 or more ft lb torque at 4K rpm.

All the best,

Mike

 
I Can see it now...

JaySea goes *SMACK* right into the concrete barrier when talking to a hottie on the CB while making microwave popcorn and receiving a fax ...

Too much for me :unsure:

Y'know, we make fun of people talking on cell phones, and putting on makeup and reading a map in the car, and here we have the farklemaster putting everything but a mirrorball on his bike...
