Better and better things are going to come to you Marty. The gang has always enjoyed helping and if you need anything you know you just have to ask me. Well done and i will see you at Wanganui (as a spectator ill add) .
More tracktime is whats needed for you now after your absence for most of the winter series.
Go the mighty HONDA .

Hey Martin, good to see you back on the track & testing out the injuries. (didnt seem to affect your ability to lift a glass at the night clubs in town later on though........);)

If I hadn't missed a gear at the hairpin in the first SS race you wouldn't have got me that time:laugh:

Cheers, Greg

Good stuff Martin, big lap time drop in the last race :niceone:

Was it the Power Race 190/55 you were trying to fit on? I will be putting one of those on in the near future, and am anticipating having very little chain adjustment due to potential fouling on the linkage. They are huge, even bigger than the other 190/55 in the shop. You weren't able to add a link to the chain?

Running out of gas...need to give your pit crew a spankin'

Yeah it was the 190/55. I didnt have time to play around with it to fit it.
Im sure addin a few links would have done the job.

You were looking good out there man. Must have done a few laps around there now..?

Pit Crew...?
Im my own pit crew mate!

Thanks mate.
Was good to catch up for a chat at the pub. Let Carey (sp?) know that I want to know if the girl that was dancing next to him ate him or not! (i think he was scared of her! haha

Give it a go I say...the side grip should be huge going by the profile of the tyre.

Only been around there once before. The bike was just handling really sweet. Dropping the front 5mm at the last round paid great dividends for the tight Taupo track.

Hire a monkey or something, then. Much easier when you don't have to think about the little stuff.

Yeah I was looking at dropping the front a bit. Im getting the forks out before Wangas to get some new internals. (they are standard at present), So will try a few things when I chuck them back on the bike.
The main prob is I dont trust too many people to work on my bike. Im just too fussy I think.:innocent:

Always good fun tryin' new stuff out...especially when it works!! (much to my own amazement).

Know what ya mean. All of the life critical stuff I try to do myself. Nice to be sure that your brake caliper bolts are torqued correctly as you're braking from 250 :)

Exactly!
Would like to have someone there I could trust to do it....
Maybe I should have some auditions...:banana:
