Hi,
First of all congratulations for everything.
It would be great if you could give some more information on your experience with the clicktronic. It looks like it worked quite well at your first
track day.

I have a lot of problems getting 1st to 2nd at full throttle - it misses and gets neutral a lot but I suspect thats my old engine rather than the
klicktronic - above that the cut is about 40ms and you dont feel the change
I was shifting 1st to 2nd with manual liftoff + clutch in case it missed hence the pants 0-60

Is there a way to tweak the movement of the clicktronic or are you doing it manually?
maybe to space between 1 and 2 is a little different?

So, Cloudy,
I hear that you have only gone and deserted the GSXR1100. Not many people running these engines and you go on and swap to the ubiquitous R1.
I must admit that I have fuel injected mine (carbs were getting too complicated and leaky for me, and tuning them up was a nightmare).
So, my question is. Was it worth it? and why no updates on this build diary?

I'll have some new pics soon - but yes I've deserted the GSX-R, as it was forever the only source of problems in the car, Will miss the
torque from the 1200 cc's but I'm looking forward to not having to stop for oil after each journey!

won't spin the wheels on a rolling start till about 40mph, probably need to gear it down a little, will run a few 0-60's to see how badly
it affects standing starts...

You need a power commander if its injection and get it remapped.
I need to rolling road mine
205/50/15's with a 51 tooth sprocket on mine

Not greatly impressed with the ratio, I either break the tyres loose off the line, and spin all the way to 70mph (see pic below :O)
Or if I pull away normally, it bogs down till about 20mph - returns a 0-60 of about 3.5 much slower than the 162hp gsxr at around the 3 mark (with a
gearchange!)
Think i'll drop the gearing a tooth at the front, means a top speed of just 125 though - stupid r1 gearing

Front cog from memory is 17 teeth.
Someone on here worked out the ratio for me based on the gears in the gearbox, so if you want perfection, I think the gear ratios need altering
too.
A fuel remap will help

17 is stock!! running through my calc gives
83 in 1st!
You will transform the perfomance by dropping that to a 13/14!

Question is, do you have one? and how many teeth does your sprocket have?
If you decrease teeth on one and increase teeth on the other don't u end up with the same output or have I missed something?
Why not change your larger sprocket instead?
