OK, I've been convinced. Curious about the "bell mouth effect" I pulled the rubbers out of my old standard plenum and, after a little fiddling, put them in my intake. All that was needed was a little grinding and cutting to get the three ends level and in-line. Great piece of kit that it is, some will recall that it was only ever the prototype that Cobba made. I have been using simple rubber tubes with a couple of hose clamps to attach it to the throttle bodies; now the bell mouths. Did a 12 minute tune and gave it a bit of a workout this morning on the way to work. I can say unequivocally that there is a significant and noticable boost. A twist of the throttle at 3000rpm in second has the rear spinning and the bike fishtailing. Previously it was more inclined to lift the front wheel a little. Anyway, I'm totally convinced. Just thought I'd say so.

Glad you tried it Richard and it had the desired effect........ that's the main reason I modified the standard plenum, I might have 2nd thoughts putting it all back on after I do a major service next month !!

Hi Mate! I'm new to this site & loving everyones knowledge & enthusiasm for R3's!
I'll introduce myself quickly as Tomcat suggested to me earlier:
I've been playing with motorbikes since i could ride one, got into pulling them apart & putting them back together & built some show bikes over the years & bits & pieces for other people - custom & stock - i specialise in the making of top quality hand made leather goods for motorcycles & riders, I am a saddlemaker by trade also harness making, bootmaker, leather tutor, etc so my 35+ years of experience & knoweledge in the leather field has enabled me to bring together my love of leather & bikes to create some pretty awesome ****, so i have been told by numerous people. one of the first triumph's i built is in the very first issue of Live To Ride magazine (titled GO FOR GOLD) written & shot by John Hunter Farrell in the 80's

I have a 2010 Roadster which i have been customizing since i got it - had it dyno'd at Springwood ProDyno Tune at 170 horsepower to the back wheel - i am VERY interested in a set of these pipes you & your mate have been making - just the header pipes really - i rekon it'd get 180 with your design so i am keen as to get my hands on a set - if you need a donor bike & if mine would suit what you're after i'd be more than happy to help - i'm local (Redlands) so let me know!
cheers!

Hi Trevor,
170HP at the wheel, surly you have an aftermarket exhaust and filters fitted already, Fred at Procycle Dyno achieved my numbers with Rebands and tripple K&N's.
What are you running?
