Oh, I see your from New York. That explains your hostile attitude. Sorry to have posted on your thread. Perhaps if you would educate yourself on how to post pics, this would not have happened. In fact, I would have shown you how to do it, but with your New York attitude, I'll never share anything with you................knowledge is power, you're at a disadvantage...........

I suppose you missed the photos I posted for the pipe install. Also the Power commander install. Also tested the TRE on the dyno. Yep, my posts are stupid!!
Last I checked Pipe & PC come w/pics & instructions. You tested the TRE on the Dyno? I missed that one. Well, good for you . I pulled my Secondaries, got more power.
Listen, point being you feel the need to post that annoying shit on my post. Yet, didn't see you offering any help.
You pulled the same shit on another thread that someone else started w/ the intent of thanking me for taking the time on the 4th if July to get them up on the Dyno & make sure their 14 was all good.

VegasDude's dyno results and TRE results
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As a lot of you know, I posted up that I was going to DynoJet here in Las Vegas last week to dyno my 14. My bike is stock with the exception of Brock's pipe and a power commander. I also bought a TRE from Ivan and I wanted to do a before and after with the TRE. I wanted to do a session at the Official DynoJet facility with Dusty doing the tuning. Please note that I am not a professional tuner or have any type of knowledge of these things. I am a rider that likes roll on's and top end runs, like most of the people on this board. I bought and paid for Brock's pipe and power commander and I paid for the TRE as well. This is really an independent test at an independent facility and I will state the results as they were. First off, Las Vegas is not the best city to get the best horsepower due to altitude at about 2,700 feet where dynojet is located, and due to heat of about 91 degrees at 7 am in the morning and the barometric pressure falling. I do have dyno sheets but they are .drf files and I haven't figured out how to post them as when you right click on them, no option to send or save is available. But someone I'm sure will tell me how to do this. I also did not want to post my results earlier because I knew that Brock and Oliver were testing as well. My independent test is kinda like to keep things equal.
Stock ZX 14 at DynoJet made 158 horsepower and 97 pounds of torque stock. With the addition of Brock's Pipe and power commander I made 179.35 hp with 103.95 pounds of torque! To make 21 horsepower in these conditions is amazing. My correction factor was 1.09 which is terrible. I was using normal gasoline at 91 octane. I was using Brock's map and according to Dusty, Brock's map was nearly perfect! I then installed the TRE. I gained 15 lbs of torque and 12 horsepower between 3200 and 3800 rpm compared to the run with pipe and power commander. I should also say that I gained torque and horsepower from the very start of the run thru almost the entire torque and HP band. With the TRE at peak horsepower my horsepower was 178.50 and torque was 104.91. Even though I had Brock's map for the TRE, Dusty just remapped for the TRE with Brock's original map. Brock puts a lot of effort in his maps and for those people that don't have access to a dyno, don't worry Brock has you covered! Dusty was amazed at the difference the TRE made! The bottom line is Brock's stuff works, his maps are dialed in and the TRE does what is claimed. You will have to remap with the TRE but if you have a pipe and a power commander this isn't a big issue. One thing with the TRE is you will lose your neutral light and shift/launch light, which for a street rider is no big deal. Your gear indicator will be showing 6th. No biggie for me either. Well that's my story and I'm sticking to it. I'll post the dyno sheets when I figure it out. One last thing. I spoke with Ivan when I ordered the TRE, he had no idea who I was or what I was about to do. He took the time to talk to me about his product and he overnighted the TRE for me and I received it the very next day. I liked dealing with him.

What is it you don't like about NY'ers? Anyone that thinks your stupid posts are annoying has a NY attitude?
I'm trying to remember where it was that I stuck my foot in mouth?!?!
I didn't make a ignorant comment on a public forum. I stated my thoughts on your post & have questioned your intentions w/ these stupid posts in the past, in a nice way. You didn't offer a response then.

Are you trying to detract from the quality of my threads in some way as you have already done w/ this one.

don't take it personal. With therapy you can cure your problem. I know it will be difficult. With God's help and a little luck, you will be fine. I posted up a thread about tank bags. Go take a look.

Absolutely, I was a better fit in the intermediates. What I did find out real quick in the INT's was that the Pilot Powers could not hang w/ the pace & I will have a set of Pilot Races mounted for the FUSA Course on 8/10.
Hey, I was talkin w/ Steve & Rob Lombardi & Alex. Those guys are nice guys! Steven has a Trans. shop in Bklyn. I'm in there pretty regular I'll probably stop in next time I'm in the area. Hey, I got that MR9 issue worked out also. Thanks!

Your thinking again. When people start reverting to name calling, it's because they have nothing intelligent to come back with. As anyone can see that tank bag is much too small to fit my head into.........(that's a joke too).....sheezzzzzzzzzzz.........! I promise I will not post in your thread again. It's really not fair anyway. I would not want to obfuscate this thread any further....................

When he told me he had a shop that's what I initially thought! But, whatever gets the bills paid. Will do, I'd like to meet you.

Guys...I've been posting here for quite some time...and I've enjoyed reading and hearing comments from both of you...I have found you both to be very informative and have to thank you both for the time and effort you have put it to your posts and work around here. Bill, VD was joking and meant nothing offensive...I have posted the exact same thing on other threads myself. We have quite a few assholes and jerks around here but I don't consider either of you to be in that class of people. We have enough shit to deal with here; this was a complete misunderstanding...why don't you guys just drop it and be friends...you both seem to be very decent guys...and somehow this got all out of control...I believe VD meant no harm at all. By the way Bill, nice pics!! You must of had a blast out there...I know I do everytime I go out there with my wife!

Glass? Motorcycles have glass? The lights are behind lexan or similar plastic. Many intelligently run trackdays have ceased to require light taping. Others just keep plodding along like domesticated fowl, doing what thay see others do.

Seems like the camera would be more of a problem then the lights or mirrors. How did you do that? You didn't race with it on there did you?
