Why would you ride that long and that gnarly stuff if you don't have to, Its what we do, we love it.

Well we were there, but no one else was. So I just got dropped home. Thanks for the lift Sharper XB!
We;ll have to call you two the Hard out SATNRiders from now on.
Every day above ground is a good day!:
No worries Thani, your a great pillion by the way.. its like you werent even there...
As for the rest of you, bunch of Sugar Fairys... apart from DidJit...he bent to peer presure and made the effort to show, pity we left 5 mins to early and missed him, rolled up on him on the way home after dropping Thani off... had my Thursday night fix even on the nasty slicks...all I can say for the Michellin Pilot Road 2CT's is Wow!!! Time to replace them though and roll on the![]()
Not that hard.![]()
I turned up at 6:20 after busting my gut so I could get away to the SATNR 'cos it was "RIDE night," — lo & behold, no-one there. You could've at least waited til 6:30! Haha![]()
All good, Sharper caught up with me on the way home & we had a bit of a laugh about it.![]()
I'm sure Thani-B won't be influenced by any of us opinionated Sods on here..and I don't need to "Rev the Shit" out of it to get to my Fun level's up there. I know full well were my limit is and I dont often cross it, and I dont really see the point in having an excess abundance of power when there is the potential there to exceed my riding capabilities. And by the way at Least I dont need to drop 3 gears to roll the power on. Torque is my friend or fiend(dependent on how you look at it), its knowing how to use it.![]()
There is always one rule of thumb when you can control your bike you obviously need MOAR POWER... revving a machine imo is funner than not needing to. I mean bikes with bucket loads of torque and no horsepower are imo uselss, its so quick to 5000 rpm and just as your starting to enjoy it it runs out of juice, I personally much prefer the build up effect and a screaming top end knowing that not much else on this planet gets to these levels of acceleration faster!!
I'm not talking about crossing limits here. When someone sees me on one wheel etc it might look like I am a reckless hoon, nevertheless I am perfectly at ease on the rear wheel so depends on rider to rider. LOL my thou has more roll on grunt at 100kmps in 6th than my R6 had in top band on 3rd (its sweet spot) so no lack of torque there lol. WHo cares theyre just fun machines and being a SQUID is what it's all about![]()
