Record broken!

First run at 112mph but a slight headwind on the return and a density altitude of 250ft higher meant our return run was slightly slower at 109 but still got us the record. We've decided to take a chance and have the engine sealed to try and better the record as we feel we have another 10-20 mph in the bike. If we blow the engine before it is  inspected we lose the record, but this way we don't have to tear down after each record run, not until we feel we have achieved as much as we feel we can. We're running very rich, so dropping the main jets from 840 to 820 to start with.
