    You go where you look ... and #56 was looking at you ... and down HE went too. You were sliding out of his way ... I'm sure he could have made that turn ...

    the guy on the 56 bike seems to like to cut up the inside and force you to brake to avoid him, this happened on a couple of occasions. but in that photo its all my own doing! i lost the front in some uneven surface.
    Ride it like you stole it....

    Sorry to hear about the damage but you sounded like you were pushing the litre bikes hard.

    Bloody good excuse to get a new bike though eh?

    I dropped off the race fairings for Frenchy's R6 last week. But from the state the bike and Frenchy are in I don't think either will be ready by Wanganui. There's lots of work to be done to it.

    I dont totally agree ... It looks like there may be "something" ON the road surface ...
