    Well I may need more info on the 1199 mod, as if you have a single sided swingarm, you really only need a single nut.

    Heck even Triumph know that!

    Nay, 'tis mid afternoon forsooth.

    Mine started as a reliable, cheap new bike that I wouldn't have to spend money on (except tyres and gas) for 200,000 km.....

    Things started to go wrong about 5,000 km, more wrong at 10,000 km, seriously wrong at 20,000km.......

    So I only have 15,000 km to go before I need a single-side single nut rear. It's the way of the VFR....

    That it is indeedy, tuned out as much as possible but still noticeable when the extra valves kick in. For the difference in power/torque/economy I would rather everything from zero revs, get the extra power/torque without the 'shock' and pay some extra gas money.

    Stymie, this thread is almost three years old, you may not get a response right away. I would give Two Brothers a call and see if they can help you, might get your issue resolved faster.
