What did you do to your bike today ??

[Monty]

Oo nice!

[TonyB]

Washed it and went at the paintwork with a clay bar, polished and waxed. Got some motografix tank pads coming so left a couple of areas wax free. Will get some photos up when I've stuck them on. Headers are getting a bloody good autosol session tomorrow and I'll get amongst the calipers too.

Found a new stone chip in the tank, courtesy of Sunday's rideout.

It's fairly big.

Guess I'll put it on the list of things I need to get round to sorting out!

Drag raced an AMG merc on a bypass. That thing could shift.

Some of the AMG Mercs have a 5.5 litre V8 producing just under 600bhp.

There's an american youtube channel who tested the E63 (AWD in USA) against a BMW M6.. the Merc produced 590bhp at the wheels which when the standard 20% power loss is taken into account means it's running around 700bhp at the crank !!!

Fwiw I've had my arse handed to me by one too.: When I 1st got my 675 on the road I came up behind an SLK on a nice bit of road, so I dropped a gear & shot past (for a short/safe overtake, honest ).
Moments later SLK passes me like I've stopped at the roadside.!
I tried following him, for a few seconds......
I realised I'd hit three figures, & he was a diminishing dot. You only get one life, & one licence, so I backed off.
A few miles later he was waiting at the first road junction, obviously looking in his mirrors. When he saw me he simply nodded & drove off. I just got near enough to see the AMG badge....
An F1 in disguise as a hairdressers car IMHO.

Took it for the day out with a call into Oulton to see Andy and he was going really well.

A good 1000cc bike should smoke it i raced one on my old bike had to de throttle i was up his arse that much pulled over at 150 give me the vs hahaha.

600 bhp nothing in a 2.5 ton car really do go well though I must admit

Bike 160 to 180 bhp less than 200kg

It's my Z1000SX so there's only about 125bhp at the back wheel.

[kingfixer]

Checked over he 999 this afternoon, fluid levels etc, checked front brake pads, removed reg plate and it's ready to go on the Lorry on Saturday.

Even better for the bike then

To tell you the truth is hate cars hahaha I prefer a good van when it comes to four wheels and that's only because it transport my bike to tracks

[Kwacky]

I'm not really a car fan either. They do a job, that's it.

Not actually true if its a C63 AMG. Performance cars these days have some serious stomp in them.
