Hi,
just a short reply to Marcello about Dynojet
>;-) I asked today a company called "Motoparts" in Krefeld, West Germany, a

As Raymond told me, the people from Dynojet told him that the tuning he did
has nearly the same effect as the Dynojet tuning kit.

You have to include some more DM's into the price for the work of mounting -
I'd say, ~ 3-4 hours, would be 1.600 ATS, ~ 225 DM.
The price for Ray's kit is:
~ 20 DM for the airfilter
~ 50 DM for the nozzles
~ nothing for the work if you do it on your own
P.S. In motorcycle magacines, I sometimes read the Ad: "More Power for you
Africa Twin? Call ..." (sorry, only german ones). Has anyone phoned there
already?? Would be interesting if this is just another company that provides
the "traditional" tuning.
greetings,
