The Suzuki GSX-R1000 is a sport bike from Suzuki's GSX-R series of motorcycles.[1] It was introduced in 2001 to replace the GSX-R1100 and is powered by a liquid-cooled 999 cc (61.0 cu in) inline four-cylinder, four-stroke engine.
2005-6 (K5, K6):
The 2005 model year GSX-R1000 had a redesigned engine and chassis. It had 4.4 lb (2.0 kg) lower weight than the previous model and the engine had an 11 cc (0.67 cu in) larger piston displacement. It had a totally new frame reducing the total length of the bike by 1.6 in (41 mm) but reducing its wheelbase only 0.02 in (0.51 mm). There were new brakes with radial mounted calipers and 310 mm (12 in) discs at the front. The new titanium silencer (catalytic in Europe) was said to be designed to reduce turbulence to minimum.
The 2005 model has a tested wet weight of 444 lb (201 kg). Power output is tested 162.1 hp (120.9 kW) at 11,500 rpm and peak torque is 79.9 ft·lbf (108.3 N·m) at 8,500 rpm.
The 2005 model carried over to 2006 without any significant improvements. Source: Wikipedia
Motorcycle News Overall Verdict 5/5:
The first Suzuki GSX-R1000 set new superbike standards in 2001, the second one did it again in 2003 and this, the third full Suzuki GSX-R1000 update, went straight back to the top of the superbike tree in 2005 and stayed there, pretty much ever since. The reasons for the Suzuki GSX-R1000's dominance are simple. Sublime, lithe ergonomics and handling, radical styling and full-on usable power.
Engine 5/5:
Under pressure from its rivals, the Suzuki GSX-R1000's capacity was raised from 989cc to a full 999cc. The result is a claimed 175bhp at the crank – putting the Suzuki GSX-R1000 on a par with the competition on paper but in truth giving the bike an advantage as Suzuki horses are often more muscular than those of other manufacturers when it comes to a dyno shoot-out. If you want the boss, the Suzuki GSX-R1000, pretty much, is it.
Ride & Handling 5/5:
The all-new chassis was designed to bring as much weight as possible together in the middle of the Suzuki GSX-R1000 but Suzuki also decided to move the weight down, making the centre of gravity as low as possible. The result is that the Suzuki GSX-R1000 boasts fantastically sharp steering and ‘flickability’ without any significant trade off in stability.
Equipment 4/5:
The K5/K6 Suzuki GSX-R1000 is standard fare, early 21st century kick-ass superbike. Neat alloy controls (pegs, bars, levers) dainty but comprehensive instrumentation and, er, not a lot else. When it comes to cutting-edge speed, less is always more… as the Suzuki GSX-R1000 demonstrates.
Quality & Reliability 3/5:
Fair enough. Suzuki’s top end bikes are better than most if looked after (although you have to fastidiously clean them through winter) and there have been no major reliability issues with the Suzuki GSX-R1000.
Value for money 4/5:
The Suzuki GSX-R1000 is cheaper than a Fireblade and still, arguably, the best superbike most of the time. Due a replacement in 2007 so plenty of discounts are currently available. The Suzuki GSX-R1000 costa a lot of money, but you get an awful lot of bike for that money.

JCP&L linemen install a recloser device. Pictured left to right are Keith Harris, Chase Morgan and Francis (Skip) Clifford. Reclosers are switches that function like circuit breakers to help automatically restore customers following momentary outages, such as a tree branch falling on a wire.
The Bordeaux tramway network (Tramway de Bordeaux) consists of three lines serving the city of Bordeaux in southwestern France. The first line was opened on 21 December 2003; further extensions have increased the route length to 43.9 kilometres. A particular feature of the Bordeaux tram network is its ground-level power supply system which is used in the city centre to avoid overhead wires spoiling the view of buildings. This was the source of many difficulties and breakdowns when first introduced. Improvements since then, however, have increased reliability and the network is now one of Bordeaux's principal plus points, valued not just for enabling the people of the city to get about easily but also for its contribution to the aesthetics of the city and its quality of life. en.wikipedia.org
The inspections feature thermographic cameras and serve to detect potential problems on wires and other equipment that cannot be observed during regular visual inspections.

Certified Reliability Leader Melbourne Australia Workshop
Reliabilityweb.com held a Certified Reliability Leader Workshop in Melbourne Australia on March 22-23, 2017
FirstEnergy expects to invest about $113 million in 2017 on distribution and transmission infrastructure projects to help enhance reliability for more than 300,000 customers in Toledo Edison’s western Ohio service territory. The work includes installing breakers, relays, switches, capacitors and other equipment.
Helicopter line pulling is used to avoid impacts to ponds and other environmentally sensitive areas of this transmission right of way.
Spotted this rare to see JDM Toyota Mark2 Twin Turbo at a Porsche specials dealer, this Mark 2 was never sold officially in the UK. This rear wheel drive Toyota is Japan/Toyota equivalent of the BMW M5, a very fast and high performance 4 door sedan. This Toyota has the ability to take on the 2 Porsche 911's on its side without issue. This one been modified and tuned, the front seats are after market but the rear seat is factory original. A good handling car but very unfortunately easy victim of molestation by the drift and stance crowd. Despite being a Toyota this is a drivers car and completely different from the plastic & "Snoozefest" Yaris, Camry & Corolla. Being built in Japan This Mark2 has no reliability or build quality issues either.

Typically, specialized contractors perform the pole inspections for FirstEnergy utilities, including Penelec. As part of the process, a visual inspection is completed, along with inspecting the pole to determine if the interior is sound. Some poles can be reinforced rather than replaced. One of the most common reinforcement techniques is to snug a C-shaped steel beam against the pole, jackhammer the beam into the ground, and secure it to the pole with tight, metal bands.

FirstEnergy recently energized a new 69-kilovolt (kV) transmission line and upgraded two local electric substations to reinforce the power grid and enhance service reliability for electric customers in Huron County and the surrounding area.
The $20 million project strengthens the local electric system and helps boost the performance of five key transmission lines serving Ohio Edison customers. It also provides a secondary feed for nearly 5,000 Firelands Electric Cooperative customers served through FirstEnergy’s transmission system. The two-way feed helps isolate and shorten the duration of power outages and also provides more flexibility for scheduled system maintenance.

Sunday 10th April 2016 saw changes introduced to some of Aldershot's services.
The main change involved the 4 and 5 (Farnham - Upper Hale - Aldershot - North Town). To improve reliability, the Aldershot - North Town section was split off to a new service, numbered 14.
The Farnham - Aldershot section remains running as the 4 and 5, albeit reduced to three buses an hour (1x4 & 2x5) instead of four (2x4 & 2x5).
The 14 retains the four buses an hour around North Town, and interworks with the 15, which received a revised timetable to improve reliability. The 7 and 8 also received new timetables, for the same reason.
~~~~~~
Enviro 36017 (417 DCD, ex-GX07 FXE) is seen at the end of Farm Road in North Town, about to turn right onto Field Way.
The terminal loop at North Town is, it turned out, hail and ride, with only one flag to show this.
Other than that, it was entirely impossible to work out the exact route that buses take - you have to know it already before you can try and use the service!
The route maps don't show enough detail to work out the route.

A standard 40-foot wooden distribution pole typically is expected to last more than 50 years. The most common utility pole is made from a Southern Yellow Pine tree and costs about $400. All wooden poles throughout the 31-county Penelec service territory are inspected on a 12-year cycle. Inspections began in January and continue through summer, with the remaining pole replacements and repairs scheduled to be completed during the fall.
To help enhance the reliability of its system, Penelec expects to replace or repair nearly 2,300 wooden utility poles this year as part of the company’s annual inspection program. The poles would stretch about 28 miles if laid end to end.
FirstEnergy expects to invest about $135 million in 2017 on distribution and transmission infrastructure projects to help enhance service reliability for its customers in Potomac Edison’s service area in western Maryland and the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia.
Pictured: Potomac Edison crews install cross arms and other equipment to one of 300 utility poles for a new line in Hardy County, West Virginia. The new line is part of a $5 million project designed to improve electric service reliability for about 2,200 customers in and around the communities of Baker and Mathias and is on track to be completed later this year.

"Reliability - Our rating 2/5
We have to be honest here, this area is a big cause for concern. Land Rover’s reputation for reliability could be described as ‘patchy’ at best and ‘catastrophic’ at worst; and, one look at Warranty Direct’s Reliability Index will do nothing to disprove that. The company currently lies near the bottom of the manufacturer rankings, and the reliability score for the Discovery itself is through the floor. The owner reviews on our own website are less uniformly damning, but there are still one or two horror stories."
Cost effective helicopter patrols have been completed on more than 757 miles of transmission lines located in JCP&L's service area.
Albion Motors of Scotstoun, Glasgow was a Scottish automobile manufacturer, later it concentrated on building commercial vehicles. Today the company is a subsidiary of American Axle & Manufacturing, and manufactures axles, driveline systems, chassis systems, crankshafts and chassis components. It is Scotland's best known name in the motor industry. Albions were renowned for their superior engineering and reliability; their slogan "Sure as the Sunrise" was known across the globe.
Bus production
The earliest buses were built on truck chassis with two being delivered to West Bromwich in 1914.
In 1923 the first dedicated bus chassis was announced derived from the one used on the 25 cwt truck but with better springing. Bodies seating from 12 to 23 passengers were available. A lower frame chassis, the Model 26, with 30/60hp engine and wheelbases from 135 inches to 192 inches joined the range in 1925. All the early vehicles had been normal control, with the engine in front of the driver but in 1927 the first forward control with the engine alongside the driver was announced as the Viking allowing 32 seats to be fitted. Diesel engines, initially from Gardner, were available from 1933. The first double deck design was the Venturer of 1932 with up to 51 seats. The CX version of the chassis was launched in 1937 and on these the engine and gearbox were mounted together rather than joined by a separate drive shaft. Albion's own range of diesel engines was also made available.
After World War 2 the range was progressively modernised and underfloor engined models were introduced with prototypes in 1951 and production models from 1955 with the Nimbus.
With the Leyland take over the range was cut back. The last Albion double decker was the 1961 Lowlander and that was marketed in England as a Leyland, and the last design of all was the Viking, re-using an old name.
A massive 345,000-volt to 138,000-volt transformer arrives at the new Armstrong Substation, a project that will help enhance service reliability for West Penn Power customers in Allegheny, Armstrong, Butler and Westmoreland counties.
