check out this exhaust

Post by Phil »

notice in this pic the motogp bike running a "conventional" exhaust type setup.

i'd say its something to do with a different power delivery for the wet conditions.......what does everyone else think - bearing in mind this was at thye most recent phillip island tests

I think you're right Phil. It looks like your average race system, although I'm sure it's not. They must be mucking around with the power delivery.

Makes me pretty happy about the Akra on the 10 8)
