... up and broke 2 ribs and other hurty bits. On a right hander. I've deffo lost a bit of confidence (i think) on right handers and looking at the road for gravel etc.... i went out on a Wales run with the Slappers last year to port merion shortly after and wasn't my usual self. But, i am using ...

I agree with duke, I never put my knee down on the road.

If i tried hard enough i think so but I'm not sure its something that is really suited to riding on the road.

... it and fine when I went to pick it up but the first time I rode it from the dealer was really scary and what made it worse was 200 yards down the road and it started to rain.

I find it takes me a fair while to gel with a new bike and my 6r took ages to feel enjoyable to ride, didnt help I threw it up the road a month after getting it due to a puncture in the rear which did sap my confidence a bit and not to mention I got it at the start of winter so had ages ...

I had a silly crash on the road (lost the front going down a hill on the brakes) and hurt my wrist and bumped me noggin.I lost my confidence for a month or two especially on track after that.Just take it steady and it will come back in time

... well over a grand. Their titanium so the metal alone is worth a load. Do you know what model it is as some are the race kit exhaust, some the road kit exhausts.? The road ones seem to sell better and easier as the race ones don't have any baffles. People still struggle to do trackdays with ...

So I was thinking of trying out some Michelin Pilot Road III's. Anyone have any experience with these? Ran these on my 675 Daytona and wow what a tyre. Endless grip whatever the weather (literally) length of service on my bike, used pretty much every ...

... have only managed 4500 miles out of this rear and I can't see the front lasting another rear. So I was thinking of trying out some Michelin Pilot Road III's. Anyone have any experience with these?

The instructor told us to slow down and I went hurtling past at 140 mph as I was on road tyres

Just a word of caution re road legal race tyres on the road, one of the 675 lads put Racetec part worns on his bike and had a great time hooning around the roads around Saddleworth near where he lives. He had the bike in for either service ...

I've decided that I don't want to risk buying from abroad as I've got very little time left until the MOT is due and if there is a problem finding a plan B will be virtually impossible. I spoke to a local tyre guy and he phoned metzeler uk, apparently ...

I saw this on your Facebook updates, Di.

Its all to easy to forget just how dangerous bikes can be but unfortunately racing/ road incidents and accidents will always happen.

The most important thing at the end of any weekend is that everyone is able to drive home safely at the end of it all.

... (probably started by the youths that we saw in the skate park) the day before. It wiped out a huge space. We saw the dig walkers along the main road. 2 seconds after the fire brigade turned up. Such a shame when people spoil it

Rode down to the B4364 towards Ludlow, a favourite piece of road. Didn't ride right to the end but stopped near Cleedownton for a drink turned round and rode it back again.

It really is great to ride on any bike.

Looks like a cracking day for some racing. Hoping to be on the road in about an hour or so.
