Breaks your heart to sell it eh

[86GSXR]

Riding it doesn't make it any easier, that's for sure. Had er sitting on the footpath outside Cuba thinking of all the great rides that have gone before. That bike has been so trouble free and looks so good :sunny:

you sure you dont need two trumpys?

[Elysium]

You guys will have fun at Te Manawa. I haven't been back yet but hoping they have got new bikes. You get a card with when you first visit and after three visits, your fourth is free.

[KiwiKat]

its open 10am to 5pm. $15 entry. thinking could head in early arvo for a looksee?

Sounds like an interesting option. Pick a meet time.

I hope it's better than the ballet I went to :wari: tonight.

[oscarnz]

Yeah what time tomorrow?? We are keen.

[cowboyz]

[Meanie]

I hope it's better than the ballet I went to :wari: tonight.

You poor bugger...........

[KiwiKat]

meet there at 1.30pm.

see ya there.

Just logged on 1:48 pm. Been building deck steps. Bugger missed you. Will ride on over anyway.

[Gibbo13p]

Just missed you guys...went in at 12, had a go at the sim and did 2 mins 54' must have crashed about 5 times...not like riding a real bike at all as you try and fight the thing all the way....

there was an interesting video on in the kids corner over by the ice bikes , wouldn't mind knowing what it was called , like to watch the whole thing

[Gibbo13p]

Couldn't make it friday , only get my kids on weekends and this was it his month....bl--dy nice day too, lots of chance to cover helmet in bugs lol

[banditrider]

Piccys: http://picasaweb.google.com/andrew.l.thomson/MotorcyclesUnleashed#

[cowboyz]

The sim is different alright. First corner I parked it in the wall when I went to turn right and the bike turned left. ?????? Was a little confused about what was going on there.....

Got the hang of it and did a 2.25.xx when the lap record was 2.22.73 but I binned it with a couple of corners to go.
Then ManwithaV8 jumped on it and did a 2.22.96 with a massive highside on the back striaght. Pretty sure both of us would have cleaned it up if we had another shot but it wasnt really worth the $10.

What would make it better..

.. Leaning needs to do something
.. Steering needs to be switched over so countersteering works as it should
.. Brake need some feel behind them
.. the bike needs to be able to be leaned lower.

Overall it wasnt bad but not great and certainly not a simulator. More of a good toy really.

[Bonez]

As Barry mentioned last night the simulater is tarketed at non riders ;).

[cowboyz]

As Barry mentioned last night the simulater is tarketed at non riders ;).

that would be paul, and yes, I kinda understand the reasoning behind it but disagree it was the right way to go.

I could build a golf simulator and because golf is quite a hard game to get right and average joe wouldnt do very well on it I might make the controls similar to tiddlywinks.

The sim is ok. But changing the entire way it handles and how to ride a bike simply because its too hard is not giving the average joe any kind of representation on what it is like to ride a superbike. Its just a game, not a simulator. Fun game at that too.

[Bonez]

that would be paul, and yes, I kinda understand the reasoning behind it but disagree it was the right way to go..You're right it was Paul. Sorry chap. Was there even a Barry at Chateau Meanies last night? Alsymas for ya..........

[NZsarge]

You're right it was Paul. Sorry chap. Was there even a Barry at Chateau Meanies last night? Alsymas for ya..........

Nope, no Barry's there last night Bonez.
I'll keep it short and say I was stunned but in a good way about the get together last and would like express sincere gratitude for all those how came along last night and to those who could'nt come also.
I normally go to great lengths to avoid a fuss on my birthday's but I must say I really enjoyed the night and the pleasure of the company, outstanding!!
A special thank you to those people who prepared what was another awesome feast and those who put the time planning the festivities, you all kept the secret very well.
I'll admit there way a couple of times I had put an effort into not getting all misty eyed!
There was so much that was done for me last night and i'm really humbled to know that i've found such a great bunch of people to call friends.



By the way,
Lemon icing on banana cake rock's, thanks so much Mrs Cowboyz. :2thumbsup
I slept well on a comfy bed, cheers M and M. :2thumbsup
and last but by no means least... It's already hanging on the wall mate. (RGVRider):2thumbsup
You sneaky buggers!

[banditrider]

Good stuff! Yeah, it was a great night with an awesome feed! Glad you enjoyed yaself.

BTW: friggin primo day out there, just got back from Masterton. Came back via Alfredton, Pahiatua etc and the roads were primo. An absolutely fantastic ride - you should all be jealous!

You young bugger!!!:msn-wink: Sounds like you had a great night Sarge and I'm sorry I couldn't make it.

Well done everyone for keeping it secret!:clap:

[yod]

was a good night indeed, had a great time, practically had to roll myself home after all the food!

no ride today, wasn't expecting the weather to hold so well for this long! sat in the sun at himatangi beach which was a fine way to laze away the arvo

[cowboyz]

I reckon. Bloody hell, pleased I didnt have too far to walk home. felt like mr blobby.

Yeah, I almost got the bike out but fell into CBF mode. Did some more tyre changing and got that sorted and then did SFA for rest of day. Bloody hot this arvo.


Ended up going for a scoot before tea. Needless to say myself and Gerble got a bit dusty.

Wheres that taken from? Looks like bonez doing what bonez does best.

[Bonez]

it was mint all right :niceone:Any pics or was it another secret ride?:rolleyes:

[Nasty]

Any pics or was it another secret ride?:rolleyes:

pics ... or it didn't happen .. no secret some of us knew it was happening ...

[chanceyy]

Any pics or was it another secret ride?:rolleyes:

no pics .. camera has not been emptied from the last ride .. no secret either .. just stealth mode doing deliveries .. although Al & Sarah did passed us but apparently Al was in recovery mode & did not recognise us .. :whistle:


pics ... or it didn't happen .. no secret some of us knew it was happening ...

:killingme about 5 mins before it happened, absolutely perfect day to make the most of it :yes:

[Owl]

Well I got my bike back from TripleFourensics yesterday and it's like a new bike. I spent most of the day there learning things about my bike, while it was being finished and came away with some handy tips.
It really gets off its arse now, almost too easily, which might explain my $230 infringement notice while overtaking in a passing lane. I knew I was pushing my luck on the main highway, but I couldn't help myself, as it really does go that well. Nice :Police:, biker too, possibly thought I was a little nuts, because I couldn't stop grinning as he was issuing the ticket.:D I'll call it grin factor plus!
I even have brakes now that I don't have to pump, though they are destined to fail within the next 5000km. With luck there'll be a permanent fix on the horizon. Still getting used to these, as I'm finding them twitchy, though they are only working as they should.
Nice little touches to the bike also and it's good to know that Kerry will fix where Ferris has fiddled. Nah not really, although my auto-electrical skills leave a little to be desired.:whistle:
Overall a fantastic experience and I'm looking forward to going back and spending more money.:2thumbsup That would be a first!:laugh:
Another first was actually hearing what my bike sounds like at a distance, cause I've always been on it. It's sounds fucken awesome!
I can't wait till my next ride, so I'll probably see you guy's on Friday night! Here's to good weather!:banana:

[ynot slow]

Any excuse to ride to Opunake is a good one,next time you head out that way,turn at Waihi Rd intersection heading to NP go through Normanby,about 5km turn left onto Skeet Rd and stay on it,turn right at Skeet and Manaia Rd(Kapuni store corner),turn left at Kaponga and enjoy the road,turn right at Patiki Rd onto left at Opunake Rd,right at Wiremu,Opunake,Oeo crossroads go along to Ihaia Rd turn left and straight to Kerry's place.

[chanceyy]

Was sweet as, and cheers for showing me some good lines around the corners, if not for your help I might not have been able to get around without getting the learn, after all you are the recognized expert on the subject according to lesser mortals.


:killingme ohh your more than welcome .. :rofl:



I'm still not sure if if I went, the bike is dirty but then again it was dirty the other day to, I would have expected all the rain to clean it if I went for a ride so maybe I didn't go after all :blink:
Congrats to at finding someone shorter than you, even though she had built up boots :woohoo:

yeah well there is that .. dirty bikes guess we went somewhere.. and even found gravel :crazy:

ohh yeah now that was funny .. & a novel way to fix the short problem :yes: :clap:

[sinfull]

Well I got my bike back from TripleFourensics yesterday and it's like a new bike. :

Right that settles it my 955 is next on his list i feel ! Though it will be going up in a van, as all the road gear will be stripped off this week, clip ons should be on b4 the 7 dec track day and i think a kerry tweek and tune boy could well be in order after that one !
Now who has a fairing that i may be able to bodgy on to it lol meh who needs fairings ?
Crash bungs haha now i might well need crash bungs !

Us Manawatu folk don't know how to follow directions you know............Or keep secrets.

[chanceyy]

See, you know you like it.

pssstttt :no: not really :shutup: but there was no choice esp if I wanted coffee :innocent:

still only way to get experience is to keep doing it .. right :shit:

That's the way. I'm a nanna on the stuff myself but it can be quite restfull/soul satisfying being out in the middle of knowwhere, the odd cocky trundling by etc etc....

I am worse than a nana on it :laugh: & dunno that I would ever feel confident about doing the gravel epic journeys that you do but give me a couple hundy meters & I won't quite fall apart :dodge:

[cowboyz]

hey. I thought this thread was to discuss manawatu weekend rides?

[rottiguy]

And also how the simulator was, how birthdays went, is anyone going to Te manawa, how much to get in etc... but it's all ride related anyway, we could start a 'what are you doing on the weekend" thread as well I spose, oh well crap one crap all aye

[sugilite]

Happy Birthday John,
Hope ya don't think I snubbed you, was not aware of any of this

Cheers

Te Manawa $ 15.00 to get in and worth every cent, simulator apparently not the extra $ 10.00 ( though I didn't go on it myself ).

Apparently a few bikes are coming up from Hawera to visit the museum,might meet them at Sanson Sunday about 10.15am leaving BP Fitzy.Assuming they are coming,should be a few as the rides are held monthly.

[Monamie]

Yep, it was and nice to meet you at last Andrew! Also met Elysium on the shiny red Hornet and we all had a nice relaxed stop at Cheltenham.:niceone:

[Elysium]

Nice pics and yes it does, but you need an extra headlight. We've all got two!:bleh:

Not how many you have, but how you use it......wait that aint funny. ..... I'll think of a good comeback later.

Four you say Meanie? Well, if that ever becomes a problem, I can always upgrade!

[cowboyz]

well the 9 is back together after lots and lots and lots of swearing. not fucking mint. had a whole heap of problems with it not wanting to go back together. It finally decided to play ball and it is done. nice new bracket and all the instruments are now solid instead of waving round like a wavey thing. I was going to go for a ride tonight but I think I am turning soft in my old age.

Any info on the bike that went down on the Pahiatua Track this afternoon? First report said it was a black Speed Triple (wasn't me) and I've since heard it was a silver Bandit.
It sounded quite serious and just hope the couple are not too badly hurt!

quite correct Bonez & thats why there is options for everyone to select on how they personally would like any news handled.

however when it hits the media its then public knowledge .. anyone can get police reports emailed to them

and here its is on stuff (http://www.stuff.co.nz/4777740a11.html)

Emergency services were on their way to what I assume was the accident this afternoon when I came through Balance to Pahiatua, I saw a group of bikes going toward Palmy of which one was a Speed Triple along with a Hayabusa, an Aprillia RSV and another bike I did'nt manage to identify.
Not long after A police car came through at pace then Ambo and two fire unit's.
Until I saw the Ambo I thought the Police car might have been giving chase to the bikers but it seems it was much more serious than that.

Sorry Bonez, but I've already dealt with one group this afternoon that thought my partner and I were the one's lying on the road!
It wasn't and I now know at least sinfull and one other mate are fine!

It's usually the first thing, or words to that effect, that gets stuffed into a "biker down" thread. Just thought it appropriate that it goes here as well thats all.

I had a Mk 2 Cortina

Brother had a hot Mk one Cortina, very hot! Still have'nt hear a road car that sounds as good as that did on an idle. Used to rev out to 7500 some times 8000rpm so it had quite the appetite for alternators and gearboxes.
I feel just about up for a ride today, might head palmy way.

The MkI I owned was very hot. Dont worry about the Victor below the Cortina, that came later and I didnt have for that long. But the MkI was named 'Iron Maiden', had walnut coloured crushed velvet on the interior roof and door panels and light brown plush pile carpet, very spanking, ok enough about cars....:eek:

My 73 then 76 datsun 120Y SSS was reasonably hot as a standard model,rally spec cam and twin 45 dellorto carbs used to slurp the go juice pretty quick,dynoed at 7500rpm and showed 100hp rolling.

You know it - no pictures now ya here!

[cowboyz]

Righto then, time to think about sorting a ride to Wanganui on Boxing day.
We need a meeting place probably in either Palmy and/or Feilding, a route and a meeting and departure time. An idea of who is interested in riding as a group over to Wanga's. I know of one person from the Hawke's Bay crew that has voiced an interest in maybe meeting up along the way too.

Thought's?

BTW, racing is scheduled to begin racing at 11am so I reckon maybe arrive an hour before hand so we can have a squize around the place. If it's hot don't forget hydration and sunscreen.


Im going. Will be a great day out.pick me up on the way past if you like.


Good shit Sarge. I suggest we LEAVE the main BP Feilding at 0900, do Halcombe, Marton, Marton Reserviour, Turakina Valley, Wanga's. That's a great ride to start the day. Either that or straight up the main line which is quicker and we'll see lot's more bikes. And :Police: too if previous BD's are anything to go by. Don't forget shorts or cooler clothes either.

I heard you were riding up with a certain super fast bike so probably wont be able to keep up. Will catch you when I get there...

[86GSXR]

I'll be heading over too. Got a good ticket through work. Brian will be coming too - not sure what our plans are for leaving etc but this gives us an option. Probably taking the Connie and all me luggage to lock away gear so that the t-shirt's & shorts can be put into action.

Don't forget cameras for the Britten!


So well be needing sunnies then :laugh:

Trust you Connies to make a spectacle of yourselves :lol:

Yeah cant wait, if this rain would go away I could be tempted for a ride tonight, but dont think there is much chance of that. They have just postponed speedway till tomorrow night

Not for me dude, don't mind the more classic Led Zep tunes, maybe 3 or 4 tops but could'nt go a couple of hours of it plus i'm feeling a little jaded at the moment.
(probably 'coz I have'nt had anything to eat all day)

Geez, I wish someone had told me about this planned sound-off before I replaced the missing nut on my exhaust header.

And it's a bitch to get at, so I'm not going loosening it now.

As for Boxing Day - did I mention how little I'm interested in racing? :) You kids have fun over there, if the Gods are smiling on me I won't end up shooting it.

Is it fining up or what?

[SuperSonic]

Is it fining up or what?

Well kind of, just check out the weather sites and they say 40% chance of showers of some kind. But that could mean 60% chance of nothing.

[banditrider]

What are you saying?

[SuperSonic]

What are you saying?

Happy to go for a pootle ride if ya fell like going. Just as happy not to go:rolleyes:
