This is Thomas a Vietnamese race mechanic, you know that place where they have all those hot 50's and 125's are big bikes.
Thomas, ESE's Race Team's Tuner is fettling number 9. adjusting the port timing for Taupo.
Its hard to see but he has taped a degree wheel to the magneto flywheel...
The foundry or metal casting stuff thats been going on the the ESE thread really inspired me to get on with having a go at this stuff.
If you can cast metal theres really not much you cant do. I dont think its going to be easy, most of it has been a bit of 2 steps forward 1 step back so far.
Im...
I fitted a set of these to the R1 last April. They've now covered 11,000 km during all 4 seasons and now is probably a good time to post a few comments.
Like me, you may have assumed the Road 6 is simply an evolution of the 5, as they look similar. But they feel very different on the R1. The...
OK so first shakedown for the 2026 season.
Yamaha V4 testing started, is the biggest story to date.
Toprak also now on the new Yamaha V4. I see he has front end feeling "they said he would have to get used to" if he risks a Toprak stoppie in the pits :)
No MM til next year
Test FP1...
Ok MicoBlue Bearings can only do 3 of the 5 bearings I need for the 2 wheels and cush drive if wish to do a set up for lowest rolling resistance possible. So do I get the three MicoBlue bears and 2 of the best steel bearing I can get. Or do I get a whole other brands set up of 5 CERAMIC BALL...
Check with Debbie that she received the email sent her on the 20th of August,There is a new procedure for street events in place and it is no longer in my domain
Permit issued yesterday, we all go now. I think emails have been sent to past competitors.
I'll try and post an entry form up here later, I need to print some off for Debbie, but if you want one emailed
either PM me an email address or send an Email to greymouthstreetrace@gmail.com
This is a great event, give it a whirl if you can manage it.
I've done it a couple of times - Not sure if I can make it this year, but I've been doing some overtime so ya never know
Your always welcome Warfy, entry's are flowing in nicely, a bit of interest from the North island motard boys as there is a supermotard round at ruapuna the weekend before greymouth, two weekends of racing in the one trip down south with a public holiday to drive home makes it a bit more appealing I guess.
Not sure I want to get mixed up in the f3 class and be a moving shicane lol.
Why not, I will be raced in F3 in Nelson on my Pre82 GSX400 twin, and managed to keep out of the way of the fast buggers.....i'd be less game to go Pre89 to be honest.

OK Steve - a question. I'm told there's nothing in the supp regs relating to the recent rule changes - 22.6 and 22.8.
Rumour has it that street meetings are the same as nationals in that 22.8 applies - this would mean "shark fin" extra lock wiring etc as well as a tail light if you wish to race in the rain. It would be as well to clear this up early if only to aid the classic guys....
