Got out today!

Post: # 9333Post S P E E D »

Finally got out on a sunny day...hard to believe but yes the sun was actually out today so my old man and I took full advantage. FINALLY got some Flyby videos of the Vision. Not sure why but Going WOT felt like it would flood the cyls a little to much and slow it down a C hair. The passes were 3/4 to 7/8's throttle. When I would go WOT it seems to be flooding...pulled the plugs after the passes and they were a little wet. Regardless here's the vids... :cool:

5500-5800 RPM...there was one pass I had gotten a good run going and had the RPM up to about 6100 but I got into a chine walk and gotten out of it then back 3/4 throttle. I'm sure I'll get he dialed in...my 28 Chopper should be here next week, then I can hang the bow up and get her aired right out and pullin like a Som um a bitch! lol :boating:

Norton: I'm doing a little BBQ and boating day. My buddy is bringing out his Yamaha AR 230 High output Wakeboard boat aswell for some skiing and boarding. Should be a great day out on the water. I'm sure we'll run into ya, cant miss the stream cause she's a tad on the loud side lol. Got any pics of your J?
