dont worry there all crap!

Yeah, what he said.

:lol:

(Positive supportive c00nt, ain't he.)

I'd say that 'not riding a GSX1400' is the bit where you're going wrong:

Why the MX bars?
Edit: You were only calling the pictures of ME crap, weren't you... Great supporting a new rider, asshole!

Looks better, turns better.

I saw a bucket with mx bars too... So why does no one else I have seen ride with mx bars? Need that extra width to rangle the big 1.4l?

They're not cool enough.

Edit: Ah, tasty tasty ambiguity...

Need that extra width to rangle the big 1.4l?

It certainly helps.

ambiguity...
Don't you know, Hauraki Plains dwellers don't know the meaning of such words. Explain yourself, heathen!

They're not cool enough.-They should get some aviators then! Lamb chops would help too:sleep:

Yea they look like the first... I can tell... I had about 23psi in both tires (found out afterwards) and it hadn't been running for 2 months haha. Still, would have been good if they were taken from the later rounds where I was just about getting my knee down for a change. They're fine though, thanks!

I've been using MX bars too! I don't think clip-ons would look good on my bike.

See? It IS really all about the looks!

Hi Guys,

I was wondering if someone of you could help me out. I was on the Suzuki track day in Manfeild (29th Nov 2008) and are still looking for pictures of the day. I know that there have been a couple of photographers on site.
I allready asked the organisation comity of the track day without a result...

Would be great if someone could provide me some information about this.

Cheers

:whistle:

Jeezus i have enough trouble with anxiety attacks trying to get a sweaty two piece off when i'm panting, let alone a one piece ! Anyone thought of a vacumn built into the hump to ventilate ?

Try a 190/55...'same' tip in as your 180 etc.
TBH I couldn't manage the drive down to Manfield, it's hard enough walking down the hallway atm. Apart from that I couldn't think of anything more frustrating than watching you guys out there :pinch:
Keep an eye out for a dude on a blue R1 in Clubmans. He the Parts Manager at work and it'll be his first ever cherry popping race

Get out there and have an awesome weekend y'all! :2thumbsup

Way hey hey, success!

:D

The delivery mission shouldn't be necessary though, Biggles and I will be trailering our way through the tron tomorrow mid to late afternoon. I'll put it on and wear it in the car all the way down.

Of course, if you need an excuse to bring the KTM to the open day on Saturday, you could just make sure Paula doesn't see this thread and I'll catch you down there instead...

Be very afraid, motherfuckers, this time I'm gonna be losing in style.

I'm running the 190/55 rears on Betty. Way better turn-in than the 190/50, and they only let go for the very occasional powerslide (aye Bill!)

Tell ya what i would have loved to have had someone on the garage roof with the hell vid cam on tripod to catch the footage of our lil tate a tate in the arvo !

The Manfeild corners should give us plenty of space for re-enactments.

:shifty:

If it's any consolation i believe you are closer to using the bikes maximum lean angle, the 600 still has chicken strips!

Thats what i'm wondering with the 190's, will they bring the front over more and remove them strips (faaaark the one on the metz front is more like a step on the left now !
I wonder if, with manfield being predominantly right, i could get away with playing the chicken on the two left handers there are ! there's only one you'd do at speed and the the other, i could practice backing it into hahaa mmm nah ! Save putting new ones on till sunday though !

the 600 with the chicken strips had a 190 on the rear, it's also runnnig a 5 1/2" rear rim i think.

At least it shouldn't run out of tire :pinch:

Got new rubber for the RG yesterday:2thumbsup, took the whole winter series and a bit to wear it out :lol:
