Superb machine, startling at first sight.

LPG seems like a good idea - the fuel consumption must be silly high ATM! I see what you mean about an update...Maikonics' technology is quite old.

Sounds interesting, ive been thinking about liquid LPG injection as the next step for the Activa, higher octane and refrigerated inlets should mean i can up the power without detonation :D . Trouble is it would have to have a +1 bar friendly ecu to make the most of it and that would be mega money.

Your CX looks lovely and i am really taken by the Paint job, it looks very smart indeed 8-), with a bit of luck i will get to some more meets next year and have a good look at it if your about.
