v11 recall and slop in drive train

[callison]

Have you guys seen that the new MGS/0l 'street legal' model is less power than what we have? (less torque).

 

The MGS01 is using a Daytona type motor. 100cc's smaller.

 

From the 97 MG sales brochure:

 

Sport 1100i

1064cc

9.5:1

66 kW (90 CV) at 7800 rpm

95 Nm (9.7 kgm) at 6000 rpm.

 

Daytona RS

992cc

10.5:1

75 kW (102 CV) at 8400 rpm

88 Nm (9 kgm) at 6600 rpm

so a friend of mine and i got to talking about this recall business and his question was, " so how did they find out about the recall?". and i find that i would like to know as well. has there infact been a tranny failure?

The recall came about from a long term test bike on loan to ' Cycle World '. Which makes me wonder if this had not happened to a press bike... would the rest of us have ever been notified? Me thinks not.
