    How resilient are the new safety camera trailers?

    Thread Starter: jellywrestler

    New trailers out there, won't belong before someone takes aim at one, or sets out to destroy a lot in one hit, of course there will be supervision cameras worth thousands in the, but balaclavas are pretty cheap too. Whose gonna be first to deal to one?

    Helmet standards

    Thread Starter: SaferRides

    I bought a new helmet recently and noticed that it meets the updated ECE standard, 22.06. I was reading some reviews as I had a problem with the visor, and found out that Shoei make two quite different models for the US and the rest of the world, the RF1400 and NXR2. So it all comes down to a...

    Michelin Road 6

    Thread Starter: SaferRides

    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...

    Sprockets

    Thread Starter: diesel pig

    What is the best way to look for Sprockets online? I have a old Suzuki with a weird 525 size which with modern chains is outkill. I want to go a 520 or a hign quality 428 chain. But if I go with the 428 size I would have to work out what sizes I will need to get the right final drive ratio. If I go...

    Christchurch protest ride
    Saturday Dec 5th

    Register your attendance here.


    Alright folks here it is, December the 5th there will be a protest ride starting from Izone Drive in Rolleston (there will be marshals to direct you to the start point) meeting from 10.30am.

    The reason we are starting in Rolleston is that hopefully the Timaru and Ashburton riders will be attending.
    We will be leaving around 12.00pm heading down Main South Rd, left into Main South Rd from the Sockburn roundabout, Riccarton Rd, Hagley Ave, Oxford Tce, Lichfield St then left into Manchester st, then left into cashel st and finishing in the city mall. There we will be met by a few MPs and others.

    It is time to step up the protest and make some noise, yes traffic will be held up but we have to start making ourselves heard and seen, we have done the quiet protest now it is time to show the Christchurch public we are not happy.

    I am also thinking of getting the learner riders and the scooters up front doing about 70kmh. This will still be legal as the police still won't help out but I am trying to get a meeting with the area commander for transport and say help out. I have heard there are some bikes with hazard lights if there is I need one to go right up front with hazards on, it would have to be a fairly experienced rider, if that is you can you PM me please so we can touch base and finalise it.

    I have e-mailed all the clubs I can think of I will be heading to some bike shops to hand out up posters and have got in touch with some contacts in the media, so what I am hoping and expecting is that we can do better then the last rally's as far as numbers is concerned. If you have t-shirts and banners then bring them and wear them, signs on your bike wouldn't be a bad thing either. If anybody is keen we should head to the Wheatsheaf for a get together after the rally.
