Yup - you'll fit right in! Welcome aboard. Don't go too fast coz if you do you'll get a ticket... a naughty naughty from the Police and a big (and everlasting) "HA HA" from us in here that still have unrevoked licences.

I think that's about it.

*looks around* does this mean I have to actually wear some for tonight?!?

**hospitalfood** · 2nd August 2007, 14:52

not to keep me happy.

Looks like the ride should be all go tonight -

even tho they are predicting "a brief period of rain" tonight, knowing Metservice then rain will be late tonight or even overnight. Hey they said early showers and it was still sprinkling out at Manukau @ 12pm! They are either too early or too late for their predictions..

Going down to Albany Yamaha to fit me a new -1 toothless sprocket......... he he he he he he......

'Bout time I had more BALLS in the lower RPM range...... who needs to do 280kph anyway? Rather have more off the line than top speed.

I thought that's what V twins are for...

Chuck away two pots, double the capacity of what you have left and attach industrial implements...

Ha ha ha, I assume your not coming up tonight - I suppose the weather could be holdin you back eh?

Yeah I'm only using the lower rev range most the the time on the bike, if I wanted a bit of grunt I gotta be doing 120kph in 1st gear and Im still no-where near red-line.

Would like to use some of that mid-high range since the R1's low sucks.....

Qkkids ZX10 has a way superior low range than mine, the front gets all flighty and starts to lift, not a chance one mine (unless you drop the clutch - which I aint ever gonna do....)

Youve got enough bloody toys.............
