    Not a shift worker, I'm an early riser (though I have been back to bed between this post and the previous one).

    Being frustrated is disagreeable.

    But the real disasters in life begin when you get what you want.

    Never been through a Scrutineering.

    What are they looking for?

    What the normal bribe?

    Still can't confirm that I'll be there yet. But the bike shop did ring this morning saying my wheel might arrive today.

    SPman what brand/model are the OE tyres?
    Andy's came with MeZ4's but he did'nt like them, just fitted a new BT012 on the front and he says it feels real good.

    Bridgestone Cyrox!
    Put on a Diablo rear and Diablo Super Corsa Front. Much better!

    I scrubbed the new BT012 in yesterday and its terrific.Long way around the sidewalls to chicken strips though!

    My rear is a Shinko(forget model) it heats up real good and sticks like glue.I got it with the intention of using a Shinko on the front too but elected to try the Bridgestone on the front for wet handling.I will fit a BT012r when it wears down some more.
