New leathers,boots ,gloves,lid paint job and bike internals--I really shoulda prayed to the jandle gods.
Yup frosty had a good ol muppet moment at taupo today--leathers and paint job well scuffed.
EEEJUT
well the story has changed a tadd. 2 bins in 2 days
bloody hell frosty --
I was really doubting my ability as a rider ---both bins in the same set of corners.
But it turns out my issues with the front end were caused to a fair degree by having the WRONG FUCHING TYRE
I run racetec rs0 compound. by mistake my tyre guy had fitted--wait for it --a RS2 --the back tyre was nicely cooking up--the front --cold as ice after 6 laps of taupo ---basicly as good as new-no wear and no rippling up after 2 race meetings and a track day.
Still feel like a muppet --a very sore muppet I might add![]()
Funny thing was The bike got pretty munted this time --wiped out all the controls and stuff-
MY FRIGGING HERO - Trumpy machined me up a new rearset and got all the busted bits off
Using my bestest Frosty charm I conned the food lady on the ferry into talking the skipper into letting me work on my bike on the ferry crossing.
Result being the ol gal will pass acrutineering tomorrow .
For the record --in the hold of a ferry working on a bike in cook straight with a hangover -Not good Not good at all![]()
