My DR1400 project started today

You going to drive it around town with the chute?

And the first Chav that sees it would think it so funny to pull the release cable out! The whole point of having a detachable chute mount is so that it looks kind of normal on the road.

my car fired up 2 days ago!

It was quickly shut down too, due to a hole in one of the fuel feed lines! To cut a long story short, fixed it, fired it up, the other feed leaked. Fixed it, fired it up, found the return had a leak! Got to wait until Monday for new -8an fittings

Apparently it sounds very nice though .

Going down tomorrow to see where the crotch strap needs to be anchored for my seat position.

cool!!! where did you get fuel rails from? all i could find was -6an and -8an is plenty lol. must be custom made. bet that thing sounds nasty!

[Permanent grin]

I've got 2 x -6an nitrile feeds and 1 x -8an return line. The rails are just some billet rails I picked up about 5 years ago now

oh ok. hows she sound man? whats all left do to?

[Permanent grin]

Apparently it sounds awesome. Tomorrow we are fitting the crotch strap for my driving position, then after the line is fixed on Monday it will be run in on the dyno before mapping. The chances are that we will only get to map for pump and race gas. The meth injection will need to wait as will the solid shimmed lifters.

I'll hopefully have a couple of weeks driving it before a shake down run and assuming all goes well with that, it'll be round 2 of the JDS the following week

I'm more interested to see how this setup spools.
