Ha. I reckon that too................
Was a good and dampish haul.. we should have at least gone to the cafe up Yroa
Never mind ( Guna have to change me rear as it not lasted that great-M3 )
May have to go the Pilot 2s as per Doolys instructions to get a bit of mileage
Went down Norsewood way late a.m. for nice DRY ride today and back at 5ish
Good road saw 2 jappas headen sth 2 Onga and shot past a Trump Speedmaster ? 2up heading back home 2 Tiko ( nice arse on the back bit )
And to those that thought they were looking 2 the Sun yesterday arvo - twas the firkin Moon !!!
Hope Robbie got over his BUG

I still say it was the sun - but oh well (ha ha) . I have Pilot Road 2 - first time I've used them, and they felt great in the rain - and obviously in the dry they are much better..... It was still a good enjoyable day. We'll have to plan for a dry day next time LOL

[QUOTE=Gixxer 4 ever;1129259800]Purchased a tail tidy from T/Me for the SV. Came off an 06 and will go on yours. Tui. Stripped the SV and found it wouldn’t fit. Put the SV back together. Finished it by 11. Got the gear on and waited to hear you all go past. Didn’t hear nothing so headed up the road. Hit the hill and the rain started pissin down so went home and worked on the boys bucket with him. Got it up and running so we had a great boys avo.

Sorry we missed you - lots of noisy bikes. Would've been sure you would've heard the rumble go past. Probably bout quarter past by the time we went out.

Never mind - next time - because there will be one!

I'm meant to be staying over at a farm for a mid winter Xmas pissup thingy with the wife and her horsey mates up the Wairoa Rd, Aropauanui rd??, just past Devil's elbow on Saturday night.
I was planning on going up on the bike via Wairoa, Cafe 287 leaving about 12ish, whatever, Napier, not to get to the farm too early on way back or I'll be roped in to helping cooking etc.......:yes:

But yesterday a big iron bar fell on my head giving me a concussion, so unless the head aches stop by then, I'll be in the car.
But I'm thinking fuckit anyway, I'm going by bike if I'm reasonably ok, so that's my plan.........Wairoa.
But I'm flexible on time leaving ish.

Yea I hope so to. It was a very cold wind that I rode into yesterday. A real freezer off the snow. Just got colder as I went south. When I got to Fielding it wasn’t to bad and the rest of the day was nice over there. However the cemetery we went to was on a hill out in the sticks and I was the only one warm. Go the bike rider. Was tempted to put y helmet on but thought the better of it and left the wooly hat on. Cold ride home after dark last night but with the wind at my back it was better than the ride down.
List of clothes I had on to stay warm.
Thick wooly sox in riding boots and P/ props under leather pants. P/prop under thick shirt with very thick shearing singlet with warm wool jersey leather jacket and thick waist coat. Balaclava tucked in to waist coat collar. Very thick winter gloves. They are the bom and are the best I have ever worn. All the leathers are freshly waxed. Don’t under estimate how much cold the wax keeps out.

Was I warm? For the first half it was good but the cold got in to the legs the further South I went. So if you have it to keep warm on Sunday best you wear it. <_<

Yes just stick with da dog and you will be fine .... :shifty:

Feeling a bit sleepy and woosy today, might piss off and go home.

Will head down with you Guys Sundy so lets know when and where

Heading up to Taupo this a.m. it was minus ( - ) 11 at the top of the Runanga Deviation jus before and past the Waipunga Falls ( so the outside temp sensor stated on the truck )
we watched it plummet steadily from Te Haroto where it was - 3
All the same you could have rode over as there was no evident ICE but there was a freakin good Frost
Road through to Pyes Pa from Rotorua to Tauranga was closed and heard on radio there was Black Ice - so we had to detour up Te Puke and thru
Thems the breaks I guess

Looking at the weather it looks like most of you will stay home tomorrow. I see a shower of freezing rain has just past over here. Better get all the gear on and head south to watch da boys.

Its as you say G, the Wide Angle Lens doesn't produce quite as sharp an image as the standard lens behind the acute angle of your Screen... but still much clearer than before.

sounds like a good day for all. We did a short ride to Patangatah and back. Roads were nice and dry, bit breezy, but not cold nor wet - yahoo. Makes a change.

Good to hear Dooly is much better, maybe it was just an excuse to not leave the warm fire......

robertydog

21st June 2009, 20:59

Yep good day today. Thanks George and Gary for inviting me to tag along. Dale nice of you to turn up. Made for a good ride home.
I still reckon Dooly suffering from that knock on the nogin. Still appeared to be not quite there i reckon.
Good days racing at manfield today and it was good to see the sun over there. And Steve the SV needs a clean.

Got some good footage on the way back untill the screen got covered in sh.. from passing vehicles. Thanks for the ride guys most enjoyable, Thanks Steve for the Hospitality Tent at Manfeild your nearly as good as the MOO :2thumbsup

Yep home safe thanks. Have 1,800 km on the SV now so gave it a bit of a fang in places on the way home. :whistle: What a nice bike to ride and as W has always said “ they have fantastic lights on em". Better than some cars.

Yep two wins for Garry. They cancelled the second race today, race 3, at 4pm. Yep we are pissed off but that’s another story. Time to reply to the comments below and then sleep. Thanks for comin down you guys. Nice to see you John and Janet Was great to see you. Cheers Steve

Well yes you did..........but only bout 20 times so far so I guess there's more to come:doh: still at least your finally warming to the sound and feel of a gutsy V Twin..... I seem to recall betting you that would happen:shutup:....:laugh:

Yep it has got under the skin and is a great ride. Oh the black ones arn't to bad. :calm:

Just listening to the scanner here.
Theres cows wandering on the road, blind corners, up white pine bush Wairoa rd.
Cops are trying to sort but not having much luck.
Be carefull if anyone's up there today.

Yep. the police called us to see if it was ours. How could it be our when it is so far away? Anyway they got the owner and he moved it.

I hope da Moo has talked da Big Guy into taking the car south today.....yeah I know.... 'TUI' to that suggestion:HTFU

hahahaha Tui. Was a wet and very cold ride but with all the gear on it was fun. it also ended the run in time so I can ride it now. Every ride is a good ride.

Hey all. been a long time since i checked in with the hawkes bay crowd!!!

Just got my restricted!!! woot, now just waiting for fine weather and a lil bit more $$$ and ill be back on the road on 2 wheels!!!

Whooo whooo. Well done mate. looking forward to riding with you again. Take care and get out on the road soon.

Fielding????

And Steve the SV needs a clean.

Yea it looks like my AG200. Sure is dirty. Might have to give W back the cans before I damage them with the mud. A bit embarrassed to own the bike today. It really did look very unloved. Specially as it was next to the R1 that the whole crowd wanted to look at.

Thats all the start grid lines for the cars, Try it in the rain ! , you have to hold a tight line and stay off them till you get the bike straightened up, then it still slides around when you hard on the gas. On the Taupo Road Race Spectacular thread in the racing section Scrivvy has talked to the track people and the proper repairs are suposed to be happining, hope so before i race there again, The synthetic black ice just fucks up all the lines, even the lighter coloured seal on it has less grip. Manfeild has loads of grip, but the track it just 3 drag strips.

Been there a while now. Did a track day in March i think. And they put cones around the slippery stuff coming onto the front straight. That was to keep you out wide and away from it.

24th June 2009, 08:50

Does anyone know why corner two at taupo is so dangerous?

It's because the bike is unweighted during the transition from left to right lean, and add cold tyres - it's all over rover. Generally only a problem in the first lap, less so on second lap.

Yeah, we had a great ride. Went out SH 50, through Onga, some of the bikes needed to refuel, then headed out Farm road, Omakere, then back to Patangatah - and had an awesome, no problem ride down Middle road back to the Loading Ramp.

Don't forget Burger Fuel Ride tomorrow - meet Burger Fuel at 11 am...... If the weather holds out???/

Yo Dooly, you and Tina have a great and safe trip! good ride today, I have no idea where we were most of the time, but I find that that is not always a bad thing! Loved that bright green lichen down the middle of the road, certain to get your attention every time!

Yeah was ok. They let the oldies go first, which was ok as with Grant/Robbie & me leaving at the back we had fun picking them off before the first stop at Tiko. Then we made sure we left first ahead of the bunch and had a good blast thru Tiko/Argyll rd, Raukawa, back to the club for cordial of course.:clap:

Yesterday's ride was more fun - couldn't be bothered getting cold and wet today and spending more money on fuel for a ride that wasn't gonna be quite as enjoyable - but hey, you are right, us pussies didn't go out - and good for you that you did and enjoyed yourselves.

I had a nice relaxing, dry day at home watching motor racing on the telly. What's more fun than that on a wet day.:bleh:

mmmmmmmm too much tweaking going on around here i reckon. Must be that time of the year.

Just got home from Taranaki. Dropped the 2 Triumphs off to Triple Fourensics, the guy who only works on Hinckley Triumphs. Interesting fellow, and very knowledgable. Told me lots of things that go wrong with them......dunno if I wanted to know that!
Sun is shining there:sunny:

Speed Triple is getting a bit of suspension work and a minor Tuneboy ECU setup, while the Daytona is also getting suspension work, plus a major Tuneboy setup with custom performance mapping to eliminate the dead spot under 4000 and more power thru the rev range plus top end. Last one he did like it showed 303kph thru a speed trap he said.......but hey, we all know how accurate our speedos are eh.....<_<, and of course its illegal to go over 100!!

Interesting to check the Tuneboy thingy out, seems far more extensive and better than a Power Commander. Its loaded into your ECU, so theres no need to fit a PC to the bike. Plus you get the disc to load at home on your lappy so you alter fuel/ignition/flow/injector pulses/sensor info, etc, plus reset fault codes, check diagnostics etc etc.
Way more extensive stuff than a PC.
But of course its useless unless you have an idea what you're doing.
Looks ok to me, so no probs in future. (famous last words):shutup:

Anyway, enough rambling, think the bill will be extensive too, but who cares, only live once, fuckit, I'm off to the Gold Coast tommorrow at 7.........catch ya round in about 3 weeks for a ride.:done:
