If you were lucky enough to get out on your Buell over the last week, you may have noticed how well it was running!? Well if yours is running well generally that is.
Weather hawks among us may have also noticed that we have been enjoying particularly high pressure air quality. Here in the West Country we saw over 1030 mb on some days. Combined with generally cooler air, this bodes well for the combustion process. I used to watch the air pressures back in my Yam TR1 days, as such asthmatic twins with their pathetic 8.7 to 1 (or was it 8.3?) compression were particularly sensitive to the weather to have any get up and go!
This week my 9 felt like it had just been fitted with 4 valve heads, such was the strong rush in the higher rev range. Or were the blue skies and fresh air just going to my head?
No this isn’t another exhaust thread (although V3 is still in situ
). There was a moment when l may have got throttle happy; l rolled off a little at around 85 in 4th and there was a continuation surge, as if it had become over-rich in an instant. Fortunately this passed as l used the throttle more smoothly, so hopefully it was just a passing glitch. 
Whatever, there was enough beans in my little 9 to keep me entertained.
Happy riding out there!
Mine was an early 81 model with rear hugger!

(front felt very planted).
especially a lookalike Hesketh for those of us who can't run to the real thing.......
