TOP END CURE

Hi Guys
I got helpful advice when I reported the lack of go with my 907. It was reluctant to exceed 90mph or so. Streetfighter man suggested I look at my fuel filter so I changed that (£15 on ebay). Also at the suggestion of my local bike dealer, GP motorcycles of Pontyprydd I added some Forte fuel injection cleaner, (expensive at £16 a bottle but I only needed half the amount provided). When I took the bike out today I got easy 80mph cruising. I whacked it up to 120 no problem and it was still accelerating hard. So that's great. The bike still farts a bit in town but that is probably my carbon cans set up? I'll put the bike on a diagnostic set up with my car garage run by bikers. Maybe we can tune the farts out. The main story is that my bike goes like it should. Thanks for the tips guys.

£15 is cheap for a filter, is it a metal one? Plastic type not recomended due to high pressure of efi.
