Well someone better start a thread so the bitch slap talking can commence.

um, I'm going to, er, slap your bitch

I think. Am I doing this right? sorry it's been a while.

Well I pulled the dear old fiddy out of it's hibernation to check it over for sunday only to find some damage that I hadn't noticed from my Feb spill. The rear reservoir had been given a bit of a tug & there was some fluid loss but it seemed an easy fix & will just need a re-bleed. Wonder how that 8 month old petrol will be? Best clean out the carb too.

The only question is whether I can ride it. I've been ok on the odd foray on the 750, but the 50 is somewhat more cramped & I'm not sure if I can cope with hanging off. I don't have much strength in certain positions & falling off would be ill advised. In fact the physio was certainly not for it when I mentioned the idea. Maybe I need a hired gun to ride it, just to see it goes. . . . Hmm I have an idea.

Not sure I could cope with a whole day racing, but I would like to just get out there & circulate.

What direction this time? Start time prolly 8-9am?

**Skunk** · 14th September 2009, 16:59

Reverse direction I believe. 8am at the latest or you may not get registered in time...

Yeah be there or be square!!
Be good to see you on the track again Dave! You could always come out in B grade and "circulate" and seeing as you probably don't have any points yet this season you could pick up some B grade points! *cough burglar cough*

Actually that was entirely the plan to run off the back of the B grade, at least at the start. It's taken a long time to get to this stage so I really don't want to go backward by stacking it.

**Kendog** · 14th September 2009, 20:06

Anti clockwise this time.

Plenty of room in B grade, we are all nice courteous riders

**fi5hy** · 15th September 2009, 08:05

Are you planning on watching your bike go around at some stage Dave?

**nudemetalz** · 15th September 2009, 08:19

Be good to see you out there again, Dave.

**F5 Dave** · 15th September 2009, 10:18

Well I re-bled the rear brake & cleaned out the carb which was somewhat gooey & pilot jet was blocked so I'm glad I did.

**Str8 Jacket** · 15th September 2009, 12:38

You'll be with me and Nick/Dwayne aka Team Crash Lots so stacking it is always an option

Don't worry we can give advice on how best to barrel roll or failing that keep you company in the gravel pit
