Track Day! Who's Going???

[rG-150]

It was a wicked day The ride up was good etc etc. then i got out on the track for the practise laps . All was going smooth until my chain wanted to play funny buggers in the 2nd or 3rd turn locked up the wheel and slid out Chain got a wicked kink in it so i couldnt get back out there So i watched for the rest of the day and andy from Central districts motorcycle club gave me a ride home

Can't wait till the next one

Well, I had a good day spectating. Two Smoker is pretty cool, briefly met a couple of you, I was the young one in the blue shirt. Hopefully next time i'm up I'll be racing (in the slow class, of course) Saw MR (pointed out by TS) was tearing up, and WT was wheelying on a supermoto last thing I saw. All in all, a bitchin' day. Now I want to get something like a WR250F or XR250 and motard trim it for my license.

Hope to you meet you guys again!

Haydens bike's all tucked away in the garage with mine.

Oi! Hope they don't make any babies.

Gay bikes don't make babies

Well, after a night of sickness I get to wake up at 5.40 ...AM...feeling a tad better and start getting ready to go to Manfield...kids were safely transported to babysitters and after a bit of confusion set off for my first drive to Manfield (as most the time I've gone, I had been looking at the back of a helmet). Got There without a problem .... except for a little chat with a nice young .... There were a lot of people there eary on in the day...but then I realised there was an auction going on in the front of Manfield I was supposed to be up there filming WT doing wheelies and going fast, but the track was dirty and he insisted he wasn't going to do any wheelies ... I shouldn't have believed him

So anyway, to summarise, I got terrible footage, there were heaps of wheelies, MrMelon rode on track with a roll bar, I started to feel sick again, met some people, left early got really sunburnt on the face, almost fell asleep in the car (driving home) and didn't eat anything all day/night (cos I was scared I'd bring it up again), got home to sugarfied and sick kids.

MANFIELD ROCKS!!!

Sorry to hear you had a stink day 150.
I saw that someone on a RG150 had come off, but didn't know you where a KB member, or that you just needed a chain to be back out there. I had a spare chain there that you could have used on the RG.

I also had a problem on the day. I got out on the track and got 1 lap done before the flywheel came off on my 150. It muched the magneto and left the bike dead with no spark. At first I couldn't figer out why I had no spark. I had brought my "Spares" bike as well, so I changed every electical component over to try and sort the problem. Finally as a last resort took the flywheel cover off to find the flywheel off the crank, broken chuck key and muched magneto.
Tho frustrating, I had the replacement parts I needed right there on my "Spares" bike. But I run into a problem. I couldn't get the spare rotor off to get the chuck key I needed. I asked around and found two guys with rotor pullers with them, but of course, they weren't the right size.
Even tried going into ANZA in P North, but they didn't have the right tool available ether.
So after coming back to Mainfield at 4pm after spending the whole day trying to get this bike going again, I put on my best face and told my sorry story to a group of club members. There was much violin music and "O you poor thing" to be said, but they gave me $30 of my entree fee back seen I only got 1 lap in. Thankyou Lads (and lad'esses), Very fair of you!
So I didn't get to meet everyone or get any video done of the track day.
But I did see some poser cavring up the track on a GSXR1000!
Gives me a new respect for Homo's that does!

Hoping for better luck next time.

We need a sub forum on here. Gixxer stylz.

That would certainly cut the bullshit on the main forum down....
