[crazyhorse]

.... fuckit, I'm off to the Gold Coast tommorrow at 7.........:done:

Can I come too???? I'm sick of the rain....... and want another holiday in the sun - so can I??? can I??? :innocent: Alright, see you for the ride in 3 weeks then :shutup:

[BigG]

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:Nice write up Tony,
we never had to do that with our old Triumphs it was all hands on Polishing and porting, stiffer valve springs and High kick pistons and the rest of it. Tuneings got to complicated now if your compute stuffs ya got to push it.
Get off to the sun ya lucky dude.:sunny:

[Dooly]

Can I come too???? I'm sick of the rain....... and want another holiday in the sun - so can I??? can I??? :innocent: Alright, see you for the ride in 3 weeks then :shutup:

Yep, will fit yer in one of the bags.
As long as you and the bag dont weigh over 20ks it will all be fine.:2thumbsup

[GMcC]

Good plan gary , i will take my TY and we can start a 250 trials/road race class, :Punk: i dont think we will win in F3 tho lol

Jase we gotta have a log or an obstacle placed where it stuffs up the
others :innocent:
All Ive got to do to it is - tyres/chain/rust/rims/air filter/fork seals/fork oil/rear shocks/ seat padding/sprockets/................oh and a paint job
And its like new........:laugh:

[yungatart]

I'm so envious Dooly. I am over this rain!

[BigG]

Yep, will fit yer in one of the bags.

A ride is classed as going to at least 100kmph and a distance of at least 100kms.

[Gixxer 4 ever]

All this talk of going faster and making the bike lighter has me a bit perplexed. I think I have been going in the wrong direction.
I am officially an old fart now. But I like it like that. This should be good for the South Island in January.

Sorry not me Gary. I will be flat out trying to get the place ready so I can go away for two weeks in Jan. More work to get things sorted to go away than staying home.

[robertydog]

I am officially an old fart now.

We already new that:Oops:

[BigG]

We are organiseing a ride down to Southwoods car Museum I think on the 25th July, should be a good ride there will be a few cruisers, sports bikes some cars going down and stopping at the Levin RSA on the way back for some finger food that will be prepared for us. I will post details up late next week.
It was going to be another Blokes ride but a lot of the fellas want to take their wifes and Partners so Sheilas are most welcome. Warick tells me it's one of the best in the Southern Hemasphere and he would no:woohoo:

[RDjase]

My projects a suzuki gt50 (50cc) cafe racer style project. I'm hoping for the coolest 50 in napier lol.

Sweet as, PM me to remind me , i will be back wensday, GT50 would make a good F5 bucket racer, we race at roys hill kart track. Good cheap fun:woohoo:

[McDuck]

Hay guys, keep an eye out when riding, i had a chat ($$) with A cop on the napier-taupo today, the thing is he did a U-turn just round a blind corner. The real scary thing is he did the turn across the main lane, a passing lane, double yellow line and the lane i was in (was coming down the hill) all this for just 113.


So stay safe out there guys.

Yep.... I think she will enjoy being able to take a bit more stuff when we go away. Your bike doesn’t look like an armchair G, so you are still a boy racer type


:laugh::laugh::rofl::mega:

Aye you two............ Yes you Mr Rob and Mr G :angry: :yes:


We are organiseing a ride down to Southwoods car Museum I think on the 25th July, should :woohoo:

Armchair........... hmmmmmm I know....... They do click off but I recon they will be the bees knees for the trips away. Mary mooo will be happy sitting in there. Might have to get a stereo for her to listen to. Maybe a kitchen sink and small oven. hmmmm you know what she could do with them as we ride.......... imagine that. Fresh outa the oven by the time we hit Taupo.... :innocent:.............

[Gixxer 4 ever]

Was a great ride today. 11 bikes in total, 8 V Twins, 4 of which were HONDAS (3 Firestorms and a very nice SP2)!

Madcow lead the way, George keeping an eye on the rear (I think he counted Bikes better this time Dooly) :lol:.

We ended up at the Speights Alehouse for some cold water, spiked with hops and grapes. :yes:

Roll on Summer :rockon:

Like all who got out today, Taihape and back was primo! Nothing wrong with the road ( tad muddy in parts) seen worse on road works around town. This side is a disgrace compaired with what the road is like on the other side.More tarseal has been laid, from Taihape 52km before first gravel and thats even good for 60/70 k speeds. Great enjoyable day with excellant company.

[Ascott]

Yet again, bloody work precluded me from riding today, I was really looking forward to it too, being such a good'un an' all! Still, this work thing lets me get "things" for my little scooter! so that is the up-side, if I remember how to ride it that is! Hope to see you lot next weekend, actually if it is fine tomorrow I will go for a squirt to try out a little mod I have done, see what the morn brings I guess!:sunny:

Hey!!! watch who you call crazynag....................!!!!! :gob::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry:

I can ride the pants off ya anyway ha ha ha ha

I bet you can’t ride my pants off. As I am married and have been for 26 years these pants stay on. :yawn:

As for riding faster than me…. Yes you would go faster for longer and I would be left well behind. However that is no challenge as most people can out ride me. When you get to my age you too will realise that funerals for friends are far too common. And as we have just had Scotts memorial it brings it to mind that we can all come unstuck. I am pleased to see you put the rides on and run good events. Well done.

While we are having a bitch at each other, I , like George, am not so keen on your Avatar, but it is a free country and you are free to choose. I am not sure it is what you need to do to get recognition. Your riding ability is a class above most so I thought you might have gained that recognition with out the Avatar.

If I offended by the name I apologise. Was meant to be a little banter. However as I don’t know you or One fast TL1000, I will leave the banter out..

Happy riding and thanks for putting good rides on.

[BigG]

:woohoo: Nice wite up Stevee ! Youll notice by the awfull Video over exposed for some reason could have been due to the sun. This only a clip I videoed the whole run.
It was a real good ride and various stops to wiat for me but I gave up Caffe raceing 45 years ago, I no I ride fast but far out. You blokes ride well oh and crazy.....horse, yep it would be good to see you people raceing at the VMCC series. I just about cut me back tyre out.
:woohoo: Good to be out with a few more bikes though, I've wrote me bike off once and I aint want to do it again, cost to much to put back together again.
Thanks Dale for waiting, just as well I,m slow cos you would have lost us.

Maintenance is utmost important. I now have a broken indicator linkage, so will need to get that fixed before I ride it on Saturday


And Thursday and Friday
Unfortunately I cannot ride during the week - but we sure did get another good drop of that wet stuff overnight.

[BigG]

Maintenance is utmost important. I now have a broken indicator linkage, Whats That

[crazyhorse]

Whats That

It the thingy that joins the indicator wires together under the fairing - Todd just told me it was called a plug, but to me its a link that joins the wire things together.:confused:

[BigG]

Update on the Trip to Southwoods. We will meet at the BP Stortford Lodge at 7.30 am this ride is for all Motorcycles. Depending on the turn out or who turns up it will be organised a little bit like the Classic runs, you ride as a group or at your own pace. There will be designated coffe' stops to re group.
There will be some cages going down with people who cant ride. We should have about 3-4 hours at the Museum, then we leave for the Levin RSA whare we will get some Food, all being prepaired for us, then ride home.
I will post up if there are any changes.

[NZsarge]

Oh by the way Yamaha 2nd & 3 rd well done Pedrosa he can make that Honda shift eH!

Yep, sure is fast. Interesting when they got back to Parc Ferme after the race and Rossi gave pip squeak a celebratory hug, can't get over how tiny Pedrosa is in comparison, he should be able to get that bike to go fast! Nicely judged ride though to be sure although he nearly let Rossi take it at the end on the last corner... I thought for a second Pedrosa had blown it!

We are organiseing a ride down to Southwoods car Museum I think on the 25th July, should be a good ride there will be a few cruisers, sports bikes some cars going down and stopping at the Levin RSA on the way back for some finger food that will be prepared for us. I will post details up late next week.
It was going to be another Blokes ride but a lot of the fellas want to take their wifes and Partners so Sheilas are most welcome. Warick tells me it's one of the best in the Southern Hemasphere and he would no:woohoo:

Well 6 of us started out but unfortunately I had bike problems and didnt make it any further than Links Road :angry:. Bike stopped twice just getting to there! So, upshot is I have also been waiting for the ride report but maybe they all dissapeared into a black hole! :confused:

[Dooly]

Well i'm home, it's wet, cold, got a bit of the flu, work tommorrow........cool.:rolleyes:

Bumper to bumper traffic from Gold Coast to Brissy airport at 5am, 4 lanes, trucks doing 120!!!!
Set off the alarm thru the metal detector had to be manually frisked, turns out it was my flash new hip, so, they do pick them up. Well in Oz, as the NZ one did'nt.
Missus got frisked and checked for explosives, and ran a sample of her clothing thru a machine to see if she had any evidence of explosives on it!!!:rolleyes:

Pick the bikes up from Taranaki next Sat, so no ride for me.
Maybe Sunday.

So where do you all meet, at the same location all the time or does it change weekly?

[Dooly]

Not a bang, but sure had a blast at the shooting gallery you mentioned.
Put thru a few hundred rounds of magnum bullets from a Clint Eastwood type revolver.
The dude running the show was impressed with my shooting, got a couple of bullseyes thru bullesyes.
Asked the missus, 'did she feel lucky', and 'go ahead, make my day.':clap::niceone:

[stormy1]

So where do you all meet, at the same location all the time or does it change weekly?

As the make up of the group that we ride with has changed, so has the meeting point. The Mobil Service Station in Taradale Road is now the base for most of our rides and it has a good area out the back to pack a few bikes in, something that the BP Station was a bit short on.

Occasionally, and generally for the Classic Club Ride, the BP station in Clive is the meeting point but always check the posts to confirm :cool:

Haha 200m down the road. Yes it was a bit confusing as the first post mentions the meeting point (and usually is updated hence my confusion) so I went past there and noticed..... no bikes!

Will look forward to riding with you all this weekend!

I probably wont make it. Im up in Gisborne at the moment for work.. was a last minute decision. I started fitting hot grips to my bike last night (yes I know I am getting soft :shifty:), and still have all of the wiring etc to complete plus need to catch up on some work at home. Hopefully we will still be having a 1pm ride so will be aiming for that ... hopefully a little more successfully than last Saturday :bash:

I happen to know that DMNTD's R1 is up for sale, done 3100km and already has some nice blingy bits as well.. :drool:

Whats up with that, he always seems to buy the new flash bike models then dumps them real quick.:crazy:

[BigG]

Rite e ho then, we will take him to a suzuki shop...:woohoo:Only if he wants a cheap bike eH!

[NZsarge]

Go on John. You know you want to.
Damn right I do but my wallet DOES NOT! Besides, once I get the suspension somewhere sorted for my weight the 14 will be pretty close to ideal for me.

Whats up with that, he always seems to buy the new flash bike models then dumps them real quick.:crazy:

I gist I get from his thread he has been layed off, he's selling his ZX6 race bike too but they seem to be keeping their ZX14. :rockon:

BTW: DMNTD has $20.5k on his R1 and I think he said it has $3800 worth of bling already on it, be a great bike for someone out there to upgrade from a Suzuki or Triumph or sommat.. :pinch: :lol: Just joking ok..

Umm, not that... it was a Suzuki shop too you know... I'ts a long story with lots of speculation but it in the end was a finance company that did the dirty to a large degree, really pissed me off too, was the best motorcycle shop in Palmy, no disrespect to the other shops in Palmy, they all have something going for them.

[crazyhorse]

Well, thanks to the weather - yet again :angry: The ride to Palmy is off. Denny is going to look at the bike by himself in his rain protective vehicle. So, no way to persuade him otherwise at this stage LOL :rofl:

However, we are gonna decide later in the day if a ride will be on around the bay - so stay posted and we'll let you know :scooter::scooter::scooter:

Sweet as, once some decent summer type weather I might venture that way and do one of your saturday rides.

I was thinking, we might do a earlier ride one Saturday, and trundle down the main road and turn off down Makaretu road - so you could meet up with us and do a trek somewhere in the middle of no-where - maybe you could lead us on a ride around your district..... :yes:

[crazyhorse]

Ive worked two weeks straight and ive got one day off. So im riding rain, hail or snow.:crybaby:

That helmet must be a special. 4XL is it. You better put a pic up so we can see what it looks like.
You dont need a radiator with this weather. Its not hot enough. Just pipe the thing up. And im interested to know how that suspension feels once its sorted.

[robertydog]

The weather fined up enough for a wee scoot this arvo. Even saw the sun for a while.
