Took me Bird for a blast this avvy and it felt like someone had just flipped a 'quick switch' in the engine. Just done over the 2000 miles and she is really quickening up. It took me by suprise a bit, wellied the throttle over taking a car and fookin slid back on the seat the acceleration was so rapid

After me old carbed bird, I always thought this one 'felt' a little slower but put that down to the lack of 'flat spot' compared to me carbed one which used to take off ar around 5.5 - 6k ish. Not on any more, fook its quick :bigshock)

What sort of miles did you guys do before getting 'the quick effect' on new ones?

Cant realy say Gizz! mine was already 4years old when i got her! & it is the carbbed version! but NO flat spot cause when i got the RENEGADES fitted i made sure he got rid of em anyway! smooth as a baby's bot all the way to the redline! (which i find a LOT) :headbang)

Its loosening up now dude but what's also helping is the colder weather, they run a lot better and stronger in the cold dense air.

You just gotta lurve that cold dense air

Colder denser air will have a lot to do with it - mines the same too. But if the air is cooler, check your tyre pressures, you may well be down a few psi and with the cooler roads comes less grip so your tyre pressures are even more important.

Yep gotta agree, although the colder wheather makes me knees knock against the tank, it sure makes a big difference to the power.

Gizzit - whilst you're noticing a difference already, your Bird's motor won't spin up nice and freely until it's totally loosened up, which in my experience is the other side of 12,000 miles...............it'll just get stronger and stronger and stronger...............

I seem to recall a similar thread last winter when Ladybird posted how 'frisky' her Bird had become - don't ya just love a nice 'frisky' Bird
