    Congradulations. Looks like some big guns coming out this weekend. Great write up and excellent tyre changing!

    "I had a dude that works in the bike shop I support and he told me on friday, "This project (750) is doomed, why don't you call the Weekend off""
    Who was that !?

    Good front page on the vegas news too.

    Sweet pic of you doing the bizz Sugi.
    I'll be up to watch/support/cheer at the next round.

    Gotta find some green face paint
    I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy

    Hey man, come and introduce ya self on Sat, I've seen your bike and your tyres in Hewitts, but never you lol

    Hmmm, yes the big guns have certainly entered, I hope it's going to be dry, I'm a woose in the wet....really notice the extra weight of my bike too.
    I'm just there to have fun, it's not like I'm on the latest and greatest bike and feel pressure to win. If I take a gun or twos scalp, all good, if not, I'm just happy to zoom around the track

    I'll tell you who said "that" when you do, he actually goes out of his way to help me, so don't want to do a public name and shame lol.

    I see you have entered the superbike class for round 2, another bloody 600 for me to try and beat! I'm quite sure I could lap at least as fast and most likely faster on a 600 if I had one. People prob think I'm way to tall, well I'd have news for them hehehe. I rode one for the 1st time on the street a while back and was well impressed.
    I've counted like 36 entries in the class now, I've never seen that many entries in Superbike ever! Fark!!!


    I'm taking this race really seriously now, I've even replaced the spark plugs in the 9 for the 1st time in 4 years! Naturally the bike is partially in bits. I had a slipping clutch at last Saturdays practice and have only been able to do a dodgy sand the metal plates as a fix since my new kevlar plates do not arrive from the States till next week, DOH!
    I only got one full session in at the end, and it was hesitating out the corners, so I'm bloody hoping that fresh fuel instead of the 3 month old stuff I had in it and new plugs fixes that issue up.
    My rebuilt forks are using heavier weight oil now, the ride is definitely harsh, but I was able to really push hard into the corners on my one session I got. That "should" help me keep some of the 600's in sight as I've always suffered in regards to mid corner speed due to a much heavier bike and last centuries chassis technology!
