I watch the tacho, change up around 11k. Max power is around 10k, so drops just below max power when you change.

Hero 5 onwards record GPS data in the file, it is extracted and overlaid using Dashware http://www.dashware.net

Here is a demo of VFR '99 brakes. Brembo disks and pads, and Galfer lines, but retains the linked brakes. At the 20sec mark, accelerate to 150km/h and hit the brakes at the 150m marker. Didn't end well for the BMW rider.

Here is another sound track from Phillip Island 6 Mar 2020, this one has speed and track position.

Here is another clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUoJKmMqkqs&t=259s from 9 March 2020

For those of you who like a VFR800 sound track, this is a clip from one of the track day sessions yesterday at Phillip Island. Speedo and tacho in the shot. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hO5JZZgC5Vo&t=740s Some highlights; geese on the track at 1:40 and a dice with a CBR1000 starting at 14.00, he runs wide at 14:44. He could only get me on the straight. VFR is a 99 model, performance mods: · Power commander · Air box mods · BMC air filter · Wilbers suspension front and read · Brembo disk and pads · Galfer braided lines · Metzler M7 tires · Staintune exhaust (no restrictor) I had an aversion to scratching it, so not pushing as hard as you could. I was lapping around the 2:10 mark, best 2:07. To give a comparison I was sharing the garage with a 2016 BMW 1000RR, he had just bought it and got down to 2:03 at the end of the day and 275km/h down the straight vs my 210km/h (speedo has a HealTech SpeedoHealer on it, so it is accurate). More experienced riders on the same BWM’s on slicks were around 1:53. So not bad for a 21 year old bike on road tires.

Whoops, yes nickle plated rims, about to be replaced with a set of shadow chrome rims. The plating is breaking down and air leaks at the tire bead.

Here is a sound bite of my '99 VFR800 at Phillip Island.

Was looking for a new tank protector and something that did't look like an afterthought or tacky, and was functional. Settled on a Gripster tank protector on the bike: http://www.techspectankgrips.com.au, http://techspec-usa.com
