Went out today for short 60 mile ride to test the new gauges north of town. I shot some video and am waiting 328 mins for it to load on Youtube http://youtu.be/VGpcko5yUDo
I stopped at a bar to warm up and there were over 100 classics there for a rally. There were a few newer sleds there also. I went in and met a guy on a 2013 XF 1100 turbo. We talked and I did not tell him about the MPI under the hood. He was all Cat from head to toe.
We were leaving and he came out to see my sled. I asked if he would mind showing me how fast his was compared to the lowley Yamaha version and he said ok.
His buddy dropped the flag and mine stood on end pulling the skis about 2' but went straight, I was wearing my M/C helmet and lost him from my view. I never knew what happened till I went back but found out after 600 ft the 1100 shut down cause I had pulled him by over 10 sled legnths. I had to tell him that the MPI was closer to 190 HP at 5 lbs of boost and not to feel bad.
I wished I would have put $100 on it but it was nice to know that they are not even close.
One more kill to put on the helmet, 7 more and I will be an ACE

But just think for barely 200 dollars he can do a reflash and it will be all over for you
My buddy with his 1100 turbo won't even race me.

I had already run out of battery on the camera. I shot about 40 mins of video trying different settings and visor locations to see what the views looked like.
From now on I will have extra battery and video cards.

Well I was just in WI and I raced a f1100 turbo with what he said was a trail reflash...what ever that means? We were in perfect conditions and on a lake that was like two miles long. He was talking crap in the bar about how fast it is. Then he said that my Viper was a want to be. So I talked #*$&@ right back and told him to put his money where his mouth your mouth is. He said let's go, so we did. His buddy said he has 230hp. I don't really know what trail reflash meant. I said screw it and raced him. I smoked him in about a mile race. We both took of great and I just pulled on him the entire way. His buddy started us and everyone else was at the finish line. His buddy said he was going to put in on you tube. So I will keep you posted.
After the race ended the guy didn't stop or talk to anyone just went across the lake and never came back...lol
Nice were 2 for 2 - maybe reflash involves a mooning - twice
