View Full Version : qkchk/custards Inaugural Gixxer Club Northern ride revisit
Qkkid
3rd April 2006, 23:40
If you think the Coromandel Loop is awesome, come up North and be re-educated! Guaranteed to lose those chicken strips!!
When: The people have decided! 7th May with a rain date of 28th May.
Time: Meet at Shell Westgate @ 8.30am leave at 9am. We have to make the most of daylight savings.
THIS IS A MEDIUM PACE RIDE - Open to all breeds of big capacity bikes (Not suited to Learners hence the 'invite only' to smaller cc bikers) :motu:
What we intend to do:
TLRider will organise the northern ratbags ;)
2much will help organise a southern group to join us (since he had such a cool time on our last ride) :love:
We intend on all groups meeting together at Paparoa (just past Mangaturoto) just after 10.15am where we will re-fuel, meet & greet then head off, being lead by the local Northern crew. We will revisit "Custards corner" (hopefully he will finish the ride this time) :crazy: And do some hell riding in the Dargaville/Whangarei/Kaikohe/Waipouroa forest area. Maybe have lunch at Bayleys Beach or in Opononi (depending on time). :apint:
If you are a 250 it will be invite only :finger: Ask us and we will let u know. And yes all ladies are welcome!
Contact Custard / Qkchk on 021 878755 or PM us
*****MORE INFO HERE http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=803 *********
List of people coming so far:
Custard, Qkchk, 2much, Wybmadiity, Tiller, TLRider, Duc-girl, Zrxer, Sixpackback, Keystone, Motobob, Lazy7, Boomer, Swanny, John, Deathinc, Gixser, Riderinblack, Uksteve, Aff-man, Ajturbo, Mvsenna, terbang, Korumba, Blackbuell (depends on the ducks he says), Jimevo, Dover, T.I.E, Uncleb, Nzkalt61, N4cr, Glenzx10, Enigma51, Rayzor, Robnz.....
Guys if we want an awesome group ride :grouphug: then we have to get behind those that put the effort in to organise them. Too many people on this site do the talk but dont do the walk, so hopefully we will see a great turnout at Westgate for this event! :woohoo:

No 250cc Motorcycles, that must be because you've heard stories of how stupidly fast I am. I'm not that fast, honest, I'll even stay at the back.

Make it 30/04/06 or 7/05/06 and I'll try ta be there. Staying in Whangarei those weekends. Would hate to yet other ride organised on my home turf due to bad timing. Last one was organise the same day as the BabyB's BBQ Ride (which I had organising the ride and posted along time before the TL's Northland Ride). Ya running out of GIXXER's up here with TL Rider on the Kwacker now and Kevin's having electrical problem, so it is good that ya don't have a promblem with non-GIXXER's joining. Lucky John has gone ta a 600, or ya 250 rule would be a problem. Ant is another 250 rider that I would have also missed on this ride, but I'm sure he is tied up with their new baby (poor bugger).

Very impressed how the ZX handled 20+kms of Hoki gravel backroads

Fcuk i dont know, I'm supposed to be at Taupo on the 23rd and then again on the 7th racing and then racing again (maybe) on the 14th. Any dates between those i might be keen, just means i have to get the GSXR in and out of race trim and i dont know if i can be arsed, plus i'll be pretty strapped for coin, maybe i just bring the race bike out, JSG, can i borrow your plate????

What I'm trying to get at is that if it is a gixxer ride, make it gixxers only. Don't exclude 250's 'because they ride like shit', I know of one person on a gixxer 250 that could clean most of you guys up in the twisties and is a good rider. The bike also tops out at 140.

I don't see why some are so intent on having a "Gixxer Only" Ride. I suppose as people they are somewhat racist too? That'd be my general perception given the fact "some" choose to identfy themselves in a materialistic fashion.
All those Suzuki boys fear me! I'm going to get my hands on some fresh Honda merchandise (stickers) and plaster your gas tanks.
I need to find my organge vest, I'm actually quite excited about looking like a dork because it'll make all the other's look equally dorky for riding with me.
Oh the shame.

Well if we are going to generalise that all 250 riders are shit when that is simply not the case i'll have to start some shit talking to wont I? And in the end it usually all comes down to the rider, hence the whole '250' discrimination being rather baseless.
I'd love someone to show a decent 250 rider how 'shit' they are.. any takers? Lets get motoracer or someone similar to go on the 250, and then you can be on your GSXR 25 million. Any takers?
THAT'S RIGHT ALL 250 RIDERS ARE SHIT SO IT SHOULD BE EASY. :Oops:

Really? And all you big bike owners have small penises. Or is that too much of a generalisation for you? :niceone:
Its ammusing that all 250cc owners have that generalisation.
I've spoken to a few people about my desire to upgrade to a bigger bike which will probably be a V-Twin 1000cc (TLR, yeeeeeeep). It was ammusing to find everyone on a bike under 600cc was highly against the idea stating that I would "Kill myself" and that it was a stupid idea.
Everyone on 600cc + bikes didn't have much of an opinion other than "power, oooh aaaah".
It speaks volumes as to the mentality of those on smaller bikes.
I'll wait for the barrage of 250 owners to start the shit slinging, insults and other blabber now :crazy: :dodge:
Blow me :stoogie:
EDIT: We all have to start somewhere and generally (by law at least) it starts with a 250cc motorcycle. Enough said. Let the Honda bashing continue.

Probably because after riding a gn250 and that hyosung people think you will get into trouble when you start pushing it due to the fuckloads more power on tap. After riding the k5 600 for a while yesterday I can see how you would get into trouble but you/me would take a while to get to that stage. But when it happens and you get a shitarse first time decent slapper on a much larger bike and drop your sacks it ain't so cool then is it?
- Off topic but I don't care.
SwanTiger
10th April 2006, 00:00
Much larger bike? the GT250 is the same size as most larger bikes, it just doesn't have the same power so I would be quite comfortable on a larger bike.
That is the 250cc mentality in my opinion, all these "fear" y tales about tank slappers and so forth. It happens, not a lot you can do about it other than learn and deal with it in the future. And there simple ways of dealing with tank slappers in particular too, or at least minimising the severity.
No point in sitting on a smaller bike being scared of bigger bikes.
Thats the 250 mentality.
And is probably why there is the 250 filter on this ride, to filter out that mentality. I might be wrong. Whore cares. Dead issue and off topic.
EDIT: You are on a deserted island, before you were dropped there out of the sky from a plane with a fucked (Honda) engine you were given the following choices of luxurys but were only allowed two. 1, a Honda 2, Nicki Watson 3, Markauckland, which would you choose?

As for the big bike debate, fuck get over it who gives a fuck about what you ride, if you really throw CC's into the mix before a ride then you cant ride its all about having fun and meeting good people - and showing off ghetto mods - save the CC talk for the track.

Riding that FXR150 is really eating away your brain cells isn't it! :moon:
THIS IS A MEDIUM PACE RIDE - Open to all breeds of big capacity bikes (Not suited to Learners hence the 'invite only' to smaller cc bikers)
Why are you complaining so much. I seriously think you need to get back on your ZXR, that 150 is really dentrimental to your respectability. :spudguita

After the forest, well the average speed on a litre bike would be almost double a M22 (250cc motorcycle). So easy to guess, if it takes a GSXR 1000 30 minutes, it would take a M22 45 - 50 minutes.
Then again, you are the slowest indian, best you leave now so your not too far behind. I was suppose to leave last week.
600km = $30 - $35 Petrol
Food = $3
Water from Home = $Free
$25 can feed a family for a week.

Personally I will be riding this ride at the pace I feel happy. This is home turf and as long as I know where we are starting and stopping I should able ta find my way there. "Roxanne" may be a 1000 but she would not be able ta keep up with a GOOD 250cc rider through the Forest let alone a purpose built race rocket. I do pick up on the more open road and have been known ta hammer it down the straights (this is were I would loose under 400cc'ers), but I would only do this in areas that I know there is little likely hood of seeing a cop.
My point here is that you would be surprised how little time you would have to wait for a smaller bike to catch-up at the stops depending on how hard out you are going. Rider experience is more of a concern ta me than their bike size. In general MOST 250 riders are still in the early learning stage (but not all), which is probably the concern here. That does not mean that larger bike riders are more experienced/better riders (cause I know a few who are not), but in general they tend to be.
At the end of the day a rider should be able to organise a ride that he/she will enjoy and be comfortable on (I can not see the point of organising a ride you are going to hate). If that excludes some riders then tough, it's not their ride, it's the organisers. The best thing for these riders to do is to organise their own ride, rather than getting shitty about not being allowed on that ride. OK?
End of rant.

Hey 2much what time would you be busting though auckers?? Might meet up and tag along.
Yeah, haven't had my morning beer yet.
Fair enough, it's about time I posted up a ride plan.
Southern Ride
Meeting at Tauriko Servo at 0545, depart at 0600
Matamata at 0620
Morrinsville at 0635
Tahuna at 0650
Ohinewai onramp 0720
Can stop at Bombay Autobarn at 0800 if anyone wants to meet there.
Arrive Westgate at 0830.
I recommend you plan to be at any points 15mins before the posted time as they are only approximate, and if I don't see anyone I won't be stopping.
If anyone wants to meet somewhere else along the route, let me know.

The best thing for these riders to do is to organise their own ride, rather than getting shitty about not being allowed on that ride. OK?
Im not having a personal attack at anyone. It's not the fact we are anal about smaller cc riders. It's the fact that I am personally sick of attending prangs. They upset the riding style and everyone doesnt get back into 'the groove'. Its nothing short of 'a wet blanket'. (I have personally experienced this at least twice now on big rides and quite a few on smaller ones.)
Before some of you get all hot-headed about 'its the big bikes that crash more......' take into account the type of riding we do (and the speed - remember its no sunday stroll) which IS NOT SUITABLE FOR NEWBS or Slower bikes. We havnt said a complete NO to smaller bikes. It is up to the induvidual to contact one of the ride organisers and we will '"gauge" if you will be ok for this ride.
Another point of interest is from my Thurs night rides, I have discussed this with a few 'senior' members who frequent my rides. The common topic being "worried about the smaller cc guys trying to keep up and/or be faster than the big bikes." As we have blah blah blahed on about for some time now and Im sure there will be people not seeing my point BUT, there is 3 common faults that led to a prang:
1. Male testostrone (or female equiv) As in the case of "Shit some KBER is behind me, I better try and keep them off my tail. They might think I ride like a nana...." OR
2."I better go faster to try and keep up"
3. The worst of all 3 - ITS NEVER GONNA HAPPEN TO ME syndrome.
Im probably wasting my breath but I hope this may shine some light on how we (me and Custard) feel about it. Lets just read the threads properly and get on with it!

Hey Custard, I wasnt bitching mate, you should know me better than that by now.. just taking the piss out of JSG..Yeah I made Custard aware you were only rubbin JSG........
Funny how things come around huh? I remember havin a similar conversation with Custard the night before he came off.............. and to tell the truth, it will be only time til it happens to me. IT'S NOT 'IF' I COME OFF, ITS 'WHEN'. Probably my fav saying in biking. Gravity rules.

Yep. Definitely happens to anyone and anywhere.
I was going for a tiki tour in the rain yesterday, as you do, and going through Hatfields beach following a campervan and car. The driver of the campervan decided to stop suddenly, thats okay, i'll go around, but the car in front of me and behind the camper does the same, fair enough.
Then the car stops beside the camper van. I'm flat on the anchors fish tailing at 60 odd kmp/h and manage to squeeze in between the camper and car.

Have had discussions re maps for everyone along with contact cell numbers incase someone goes on a tiki tour to Kaitia again :confused:
Also we're thinking about having two speed groups with a "leader" and "tail ender" so all are sussed and so the quicker riders aren't having to regain their mojos after every stop and so the cruisier riders don't feel they need to up their game and potentially coming to grief. :pinch:

Hi guys, I originally said no to Custard when he invited to this ride (sorry mate) for the simple reason I'm a medium pace rider and not fast like some of the maniacs of last time (funny how everyone going faster than u are maniacs and everyone slower than you are nanas) :third:

There appears there will be two groups operating on this ride. Have been chatting with RIB and he's willing to lead the Cruisier Crew which is bloody decent of the man. He also knows all these roads very well so no stresses there.
Just need a tail ender for the Cruiser Crew and then that's that part sorted.
The Quick Crew is pretty much sorted at this stage apart from someone willing to tail end it...a show of hands anyone? :wait:
The ride is for non ego's...just fun. Pillocks not allowed but I've been given a pass for the day :spudbooge

Rest assured,little one,it'll be a mighty good route...now worries there.

TL mate, I reckon it will be ideal for me to be the tailender for the faster group since I am still undecided whether to have my rear tyre replaced. It's currently got about 10-15% tread so I wouldn't wanna push too hard. It's also quite good to check out the Northland scenery.

Leave the bigger sprocket on. The twisties will easily exceed the number of straight bits.

TL mate, I reckon it will be ideal for me to be the tailender for the faster group since I am still undecided whether to have my rear tyre replaced. It's currently got about 10-15% tread so I wouldn't wanna push too hard. It's also quite good to check out the Northland scenery.
What tyre you running? I would try to get another tyre for this ride If I was you, I dont think a sport tyre with only that much tread will last this ride.
From Aucks you will probably be riding about 600-800kms on the day.

Thanks for the feedback......I have had Diablo Corsa since new and it's lasted 7000km. After having a brief discussion with TL Rider, I am more convinced to get myself a new rear tyre. Better safe than sorry.......

yeh riding on near dead tyres (especially race ones ) can get a bit ... interesting. Especially if there is a wet patch here or there.
how do those corsa's stack up in the wet after a few thousand km?? I got about 6500 out of my racetech front and about 3500 out of the rear and they still gripped ok in the dry but got a bit loose in the wet near the end.

The fact that if we go through the Waipoura Forest, it can get extremely slippery and damp on the best days so I would STRONGLY suggest tyre replacement unless you wanna do some tank-slapping.

Corsa doesn't like the wet that much I reckon, I have to keep the throttle action real smooth going into the twisties. I have had bit of mini power slides lately on the dry days, kinda exciting...... if you know what I mean :blip:

One golden rule that I have is to warm up the tyres for the first 10 km or so......that means NO hard accelerating on the straights at all. Try to keep the throttle even and roll on and off gently, even when travelling at some serious speed. I am really happy with the "longevity as pect" given the shops are wanting $600 for a set of new Diablo Corsas these days.

Yeap, this time I'm soft and slow, and having slight problem getting fuel money as I don't have a student loan and no student allowance and no job. Money income = 0. Also my engine seals are leaking, especially with rides like this... you saw it last time.
But yeah
my main excuse is that i'm soft and slow.. just leave it at that. THe bike can probably make it.
