Who is the likeliest new racer from KB

**Duke of Rogan** · 8th August 2003, 12:01

BB 'cos he's got the best bike

or Motoracer for the least posts-per-day (therefore moretime riding?)

maybe they all need to line up on bucket racers and see who's still riding aftera few laps

**Coldkiwi** · 8th August 2003, 12:22

mmm.. bucket racing... thats what I really wanna do!!

I won't be doing long term racng on the 6r but after the g/f gave me a vote of confidence about doign those AMCC rounds in clubmans I think i'll have to follow through!

(hows that for a cunning rouse to get votes?)

Weel from this and other forums it sounds like kk is most likely to give it a crack, however it sounds like his problem might be getting past the scrutineers lmao.
It sounds like he wears ducktape brand leathers, and rides a No 8 wire trellis frame. lol

(please note: someone has to take the piss)

i hope to be racing soon aswell gonna race a 600. first gonna do some track times and compare my times with racers.

its getting a bit boring blasting the same roads time after time,
and there is not many bikers that can ride very fast most seem to tour around. but i love to piss off guys on bigger bikes when i go around the outside of them at 150k-160k in a 55k corner.
GO moto racer tho, i reackon first one on the track!

andy1, fair enuf, i dont spose u ride the north western m/way much on ur CBR250? jus that it musta been a month ago or more now that i saw a CBR250 @ approx 130-maybe 140 going down it between traffic, just jumping from lane to lane no indicating.. high speed, i was on the GS1000 and thought, nah-uh, not in this traffic, + i aint nowhere near as skilled as that rider. or lrgly balled, it was one or the other, i guess only knowing him and finding out how often he crashes will tell us that

**andy1** · 16th August 2003, 21:36

yea i travel the north western m/y everyday!
been pulled over by a bloodly motorcycle cop for speeding and not indicating to change lanes. but was lucky to get away with a small fine. so maybe yea was me.

P.S ALL BLACKS are fucken awesome!!

**Marmoot** · 16th August 2003, 22:30

**Kwaka-Kid** · 17th August 2003, 07:12

HEEL YEAH! SHOT ALL BLACKS!

Newsflash...KK PAID for his AMCC membership last night and is now in posession of a racing license application form.

He was seen in intense negotiation with some KBers to arrange transport to Manfeild on 4th October for the final round of the Vic Club winter series. This may be serious....questions like 'Will I be allowed to race with totally shagged, bald tyres?' indicate that the idea of racing is starting to become a probability not a possibility.

So will he? or won't he? Listen out for the next instalment of this tepid saga.

**curious george** · 12th September 2003, 10:32

Waaaahay! This does it. I'm gonna be there.

Go the KK racing team!
moto "we don't need to buy a new one, I can fix it"
Well done KK. New tyres......nmmmmmmmmm

**bluninja** · 12th September 2003, 10:42

New tyres as well!!!!!!!!!!!!! damn who am I going to sell my shagged supercorsas to now?

Spoke with my wife about being away for the weekend...she was ok with me sharing with Mitch, but was worried a bulletproof 18 year old might lead me astray. LMAO

Feck, better get new tyres put on the SV otherwise KK will spank my arse at Manfeild.

BTW KK you do realise that you have to be scrub new tyres in? You can't just go for it? Just that you've not had fresh new rubber before

TTFN

**Marmoot** · 12th September 2003, 11:28

KK: be very careful. I know you haven't experienced this, but new tyres are slippery. You have to scrub them in slowly (yadda yadda yadda)...

(on second thoughts, worn tyres are better coz you can use them straightaway. hehehhee)

**Coldkiwi** · 12th September 2003, 17:05

KK, when we say scrubbed in... that normally takes at LEAST 100km's on the roads. a bit longer if you're just doing reasonably soft commuting.

how long does a race licence take to get sorted? ie. if I turn up to an AMCC club night two weeks before the first round, will I get one in time?
