Small update people..further improvements have been made and are looking quite encouraging. The Ghost Apache is quicker and faster now. At this stage we're targetting a quick 150kph true speed (around 160kph on speedometer) while still being a reliable daily ride. Will complete latest set of improvements before doing VBOX testing and next video shoot.

A lot of work is pending and the machine and this is just the first state of tune. Have been busy with other tasks and this was finished in a limited time frame. watch for more updates soon.

Joel, I know this is OT, but after reading this, I feel impatient man. Please develop similar kits for the 220 dtsi. You know how desperate and committed I am to your mods.

Been waiting for a while to see the VBox figs now! But then, there is no lack of credibility here, I still remember that 177kmph RD!

Yes 'The Ghost' we need some updates on this. Apache even as a stock bike is a killer, now the killer is promoted to ghost really want to know about the ghost.
@Joel have you started working on the new H CBR250R? If yes, I need an appointment with you one day.
