  1. Not sure what your point is. My point is that the new injectors on direct-injection engines are pulsed multiple times during each combustion process, which better controls burn rate, fuel/air distribution, knocking, emissions, etc.
  2. I'm thinking the chain only controls the valve timing. Or, some other engines, like in the older VFRs, use gears, and others use belts. From what I understand, most of the MotoGP bikes use pneumatics to control the valves...as they do in F1 cars.
  3. Pretty sure you cant....but i think they DO control it as mentioned above..with controlled direct injection.. I read where in some of the newer diesels, there are actually multiple injections so that it is staggered during the combustion process, so they control the burn this way.
  4. Interesting, I wonder how they control ignition timing!?
  5. Thanks...No tricks or tips to setting it up? Like i said, no problem with one person, but as soon as the 2nd person connects, the conversation between the 2 headsets works fine, but no recording to the GoPro.

    Nope

    I think I'd at least stay on the inside track!!!!
  7. How would you compare these to Eagle Rare? TIA.
  8. Have had zero luck getting the sena goPro bakpak to pick up a 2nd rider. We r using the 10S Sena. As soon as the 2nd rider connects, the gopro drops out and records no audio. And it's very hard for me to troubleshoot, because my riding buddy with the other Sena lives 100 miles away. Any help is appreciated.
  9. Similar problems on my GSA. But what a machine!
  10. meanwhile, we buy their product and use it to frivolously roll about on over powered 2-wheelers!
  11. Thanks..have to check that out. I bought some Elijah Craig for ~$20 the other day. ... Meh! Eagle Rare is much better for ~$33 (as it should be), and made by Buffalo Trace like the Van Winkle stuff.
  12. True that...Its why all the trees in Ohio lean Northwest!
  13. When you get old like me, you'll have that! Also, add Costa Rica, New Brunswick, British Columbia, Newfoundland, Quebec, Nova Scotia, Uruguay, Brazil, Argentina.
  14. That's Old Crow territory!
  15. Took a tour through that distillery. What ncredible aromas inside the barrel aging warehouse!!
  16. I have too, but your route is slow and twisty! Enjoy your ride and be safe!
  17. I figured all that rain would have washed it all off. Apparently, they've added more on some roads. Anyhow, as they say, a clean GS is a dirty shame!
  18. If shes tall enough, a DL650Vstrom is a great machine, and super easy to ride.
  19. I got out for 75 miles. Temps between 32-34. Still some salt on some of the roads. Need to spray the bike off!

    Thanks! I got out for a little ride today!
  21. We took the long ferry out to the far end (17 hours!) The rode back to port aux basques... The the near ferry is like 6 hours. Dont miss icebergs near Twillingate, and the st marys bird sanctuary. Are you also planning the TLH?
