Well settle down in a nice comfey chair and let me tell you the tale.
Once upon a time an old slow rider was getting tired of getting whipped on his 400EX. Time for a chance, Cannondale SPEED, that's what I need, Better shocks, better tires, faster motor, better, better, better. Cannondale owner know what I'm saying.
Rode it and was amazed that they could do what they did, when they did it. Loved the quad. Little motor mishap and whalla, quads apart and needs to breath some more. Trinity steps in to help. With the motor apart Harry takes a look at it runs it over to the Guys at TRD (Toyota Racing Development) shows it to their main Head guy and they talk about what to do to the head. Everything they said Harry was already thinking that is the way to go. Port and Polish and replace.
The break in rides I took it easy, I'm old and slow. Sunday at Comp Park I got into it a little more and it appears we have a winner. Revved quicker than I remember, and pulled stronger in the mid. That funny spot seams to be gone. You know the one where it feels like its done and than takes off again to redline. Now it's just a nice strong pull all the way from top to bottom.
This was the first Head Harry has done on the Cannondales. If the rest turn out the same way I strongly recommend it. I am running the Trinity Map. I have to take it back so he can get dyno numbers. That will have to wait until after this weekends HUGE show.

I'll be stopping by Trinity today to see if they want to use it. So I don't know at this point. If they do I still have some detailing to do. I will be hanging around the Trinity with my tail lights though.
See you there.
