Hey I've got 3 spare batteries. Problem is they're all fooked!!

I definitely do need to spend a lot more time riding though. Even though my times are steadily improving my riding is getting worse.

Froggy, I actually had a lot of fun on the Saturday, just riding my bike and feeling better and better through out the day. Although gearing is (and always has been) a big issue with this bike. Everyone was pulling an easy 50m ahead of me out of the bottom sweeper onto the main straight. So I guess I'm going to have to spend a lot of time swapping sprockets and trying out different combinations to get to the point where I'm not being disadvantaged in certain corners at each track.

Chanceyy, Megan says hi!!

Mr Fruity, wtf?? Cars are for those who can't stay upright!!

Cheeky prick. As per last round, I would have nagged you about the battery the day or two prior.
**cough** I seem to recall mentioning having a spare battery would be a good idea **cough**

Total loss is a 1st class PITA...dunno why club racers bother with it.

Least you got some starting practise in. You wont get a feel for that bike if you spend ten hours fiddling and changing settings for every 10 minutes riding it.

Tyre changing.....c'mon...I'm trying.

Thats a serious tale of woe mate!
Catch you next weekend at Paeroa

great read dude, its all a learning curve and lol good on megan for not running away with the keys & car lol

Stink.... i like the idea of fixing every thing with a lap top tho! maybe you can create a program that will change the tires for Stevie

Me too, although when I bought this bike I also got a bunch of spares with it, including a complete set of throttle bodies

Must have been satisfying to work that out and fix it? Congrats. I thought it might have been worn slides or summit more expensive.

Bummer mate, hope ya find that issue and sort it nice and easy ! Bit of a scary moment !

awesome read Shane

LOL that sucked arse mate! What a pity! Guess thats what makes it fun good to see you in the pits and thanks for the help loading the bike!

Steve did hold his line. Being more used to lapping traffic these days, Steve went about 6 inches wider into the hairpin than his usual line anticipating easy pass up inside for following rider.

Shit happens but "sorry bro" goes a long way after a racing incident and is considered sportsmanlike.

Great read there Shane. Very witty and a lot of drama for the weekend.

Stevie should know to hold his line and let the guys coming through make their move. The guy might have thought Stevie was signalling that he was going left at the hairpin.

Sweet as. I won't be at Puke but keep an eye out anytime you're at HD. I'm often at HD Ride Days.
