The Eastern Cape is incredibly lush at present. Bottlenek is one of those postcard passes, beautiful scenes around every corner.
I hit roughly 2,200m at the top of the pass and could notice a very slight drop in power on the 990 - marginal but noticeable. I'd say I started noticing it around 2,000m. Being an injected motorcycle, I'm not sure whether this is as a result of rapid increases in altitude (ECU taking time to adjust to the change), whether it is exaggerated on my 990 (I blanked off the O2/lambda sensors) or whether it's simply inevitable. Probably a combination of the latter two.
Have you ever noticed a change in the performance of a vehicle related to altitude? Whether positive or negative...
