Pretty sure we are running clockwise. (that reminds me must change the number board to the other side of the bike)

I thought about going with only one rear number board, but then I thought "What the hell, it's only another 14.5 grams" so I have two.

Yea, well, I could make another one, but I ran out of duck tape last meeting and lets face it the chance of me getting any more before the weekend is realitvly slim:rolleyes:

Yes we are going clockwise this meeting.
Maybe I can get a ride this weekend! Granma (sorry Cully it should be BONES aye!LOL) has only had a ride at Taumarunui for the last two months. Cant wait for a meet at Mt Welly.

It is very important to make sure your numbers are clear and big.
They need to be seen from up in the birds nest and if there are five riders all together, it makes it really difficult to call out the numbers for Wendy. She needs to write them down and it makes it really hard to read and call them if they are too small or not there at all.

What a great weekend the fxr was easyer to ride than the ysr not that i have given up on the ysr i will try it again when the new chamber is fited odds are its a diferent beast with a power band .Having riden the busa half way to the track as a staging point for the wedding later i was pumped up from the not so leagl ride i couldent wait to get out there it took some geeting use to the not on the road ride thing i found my self siting behind pepole in stead of pushing for the pass .
On saturday i got a bit caryed away on new tyres and had a moment sliding across the track [i think pumba pushed me off:whistle:] went dack to the pits with a snaped clutch leaver mount pumba had a spear that i could use when trying to remove the broken one i hade to straighten the clipon first so out came the sledge hamer gave it 3 or 4 wacks then mised the bar luckely my head was there to stop the hamer :Oops:and they were conserned i might hit the ute the rest of the day was good of to treads to get some new clutch leaver sets then to the busa and of to the weding.

Sunday morning we got home at 12 .30am got some sleep then of to the track stoping at the supermarket for food had a good days racing by the end of it i had lost the road riding mentalaty only trouble was we ran out of races .Came home with a list of things to look at to improve the stock fxr150 for next time see you there:2thumbsup
