32 posts and still no photos? Are they in another thread that I missed?
The main reason I'd like to see it is that there is such a distinct improvement from the first pimple-headed SB v-7s to the newest that a 4 valve must be better still.

Mine's lightest and may stop fastest.  Does that account for something?  :wink:  I like the 60mph roll on idea.  :cool:

Yeah, but who is the FATTEST... that might account for the most!  :boozing:

After seeing and hearing both bikes in person, I think it would be a real contest.  In fact, they sound very much alike. 

Both bikes have a healthy bark to them and have little bit of an intimidation factor when pulling up to the curb.

I was 180 by 13.... granted, I started working out and I was 150 by 14... but I haven't seen either of those weights since high school or college.

Guess I better stay out of this race (unless I bring the Duc).  :laugh:

Thanks. From this distance (or any?) not really a lot of difference visually is there?

Those sure are prettier engine lumps than either of the two-valves and especially the earlier ones.

Todd.

Same power plant, just internal differences.  This always had 4-valve heads.  Externally most everything is different except the tank, bars, frame and wheels. 
No wheelies attempted!

I'm not really a fan of the stock Lario bodywork, so understand how much I mean this when I say the Super looks FANTASTIC.

Yep,  it takes a little bit of a slow roll on to keep the front end down, kind of have to plan for it if your drag racing...cant roll it on all at once....

WOW man... that is VERY cool looking now.  Best look you've had on it by far and looks the business.  That's a keeper just like that.  Brings focus to those heads very nicely as well.  :thumb:

Are you sure you want a 650 to compete in a 750 class??   :shocked:  They've got 15% over me from the start. I'll still cook their goose <smack> :food:

My ass dyno said more powerful than a stock Lario, and it was right. Still figuring out (maybe) how to post a video. It was kool as sh!t..  :smiley:
I can't say enough about the kids  :rolleyes: at Acceleration powersports in Anderson. Did exactly what I wanted, and very professional. I'll get some pix of the charts, but basically what I wanted to know was mixture at 4500, and WFO. Really didn't want to be lean. John said, "That's as well jetted as you will get with twin carbs.." He checked mixture independently, said it's not unusual for them to be different even though they are jetted the same. That was the case on this one. The left cylinder is perfect, the right starts getting a little rich around 4500. He said he'd raise the clip one notch on that one and call it good.  :thumb:

Horsepower? KD and I are just pretenders.  :evil: 46.6. There is more available of course, this has a mild cam and low compression. I don't care. :wink: It makes good usable power, and should be as reliable as a bucket of hammers..
 :bow: to the OHR.. :smiley:

Edit: Photobucket sez this short video is loaded. It's one of the full power runs. Let's see if this works.
