Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

Re: Our Sponsored Rider

... downs apart from a crash in the second race at Oulton and struggling for a set up at Brands but I am extremely pleased with my riding so far this year having my first BSB podium at Oulton Park in the first race getting 3rd and hopefully be pushing for a lot more at Knockhill in the end of June.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

Took the entire front off to fit a sat nav cable i only removed last year to sell the bike (but didn't).

Why on earth do they make these things so complex to add cables or accessories! Done now mind :)

... reckon (which has M5's on it). They also seem to tip in faster? Its a great bike this CBR600rr (2005) - i haven't ridden it much at all in the 10 years we have had it now, but frankly its better than my RC8 in everything apart from power. I've thought that for a little while, but riding them both ...

TT 2016 - discuss...

I thought it worth starting a thread for the TT this year as its only a week away. I love it. I've missed going for a few years but will still follow it on Manx radio live and on itv. Anyone who hasn't been needs to go at least once. What's everyone ...

Re: 2014 Kawasaki Z1000SX ongoing review

I appreciate the "it's boring" argument but commuting is boring. There's very little I can do to make it interesting. For 60% of the year it's dusk or dark when I ride. I reckon 40% of the time it's raining and/or cold, so all I want to do is get into work or get home, as quick as I ...

However with the issues in Almeria this year I got to ride both Jakes and Neil's 750's wow!! I mean wow, what a difference they do make, so much more torque, you really feel it out of corners ...

Re: the tyre thread

I'd agree with that, even Pirelli openly state that while the SCs are street legal the carcass is not really designed for road use. I loved them on the road though, like snot on a blanket. If I did more than one or two track days a year I'd buy cheap take offs and leave them on.

Re: Suzuki Gsxr750 test ride

When I had a little look at the 750 last year there were some stupidly good deals if you'd take a less popular colour, there were loads available. It always reviews well too. If they are saying there are none left is there a new one on the way?

Re: Chain soft links

Yep, nothing in the diary yet but will be doing a least one this year. Probably Cadwell, but might do a half day taster first at Darly Dale as it's only 60 quid, 20 minutes away and I've not been on the track for 3 years!
