    I'm hoping its the VP u4.4. But he wrote it was 114 octane! Thats not the u4.4! I can't imagine a bike set for standard pump fuel is going to run very well on something that high.

    Pun is a good kid having met him and I know someone who would be interested in that fuel to take it off his hands.

    Punisher, let me know if you want rid of it.

    That would be a resounding "Nope"! I haven't actually seen one yet Metallican.
    Can't really tell from the pic if there's just a machined groove with a rubber O-ring in it that secures the cap in the rim or if the cap has an expansion ring set-up similar to an STM frame plug. :noidea:
    Maybe later this winter I'll order one of those Red caps and see if I can secure it in the rim the same way I did the Red STM frame plug I'm using now.

    BTW-Here's a pic of the threaded aluminum puck I use to secure that frame plug.

    LOL! Thanks Davis. ^^^^^

    When I take girls out on the bike I have them wear my spare helmet and put a Pink mohawk on it.
    Check it out,it's like having a double draft. Twice the aerodynamic efficiency means the bike is twice as fast,right! :spit:

    Yep still working on it,and the work is going slooooooowww.
    Was REALLY hoping to have it done last spring but the economy was in the $hitter.:frown:
    Right now my bike is sorta third in line. My buddy Pez has some paintwork to finish on his bike (we call it "Angry Monkey" :heh:),then we have to paint my sister's bike (promised her we'd do that last winter but couldn't spare the cash),then we can get to the paintwork on my bike.

    Before a ride I spray several cans of wd 40 all over the bike and myself to lower my drag co efficient, Have not been able to measure top speed as the enormous increase in effective horsepower keeps making me lose control and fall off
