    Yeah, & I'm fuckin paying too, I'm not as good with a nerf gun as a nine year old. Good diversion though.

    Are you hoping I'm overthinking our improvements, and gonna go slow enough next time out for you to keep up?

    Unfortunately, or possibly fortunately, we gave a promising sidecar rider a go on pinky last weekend. Net result, bent selector fork in the fantastic little stock engine that hasn't been out since we have owned it. That means I will need to fit the fully race kitted ex IOM engine that's been in the shed at work. Scrivy also wants better front pads. Nek time bro.

    It's on like donkey Kong! Primo. We can both hunt down the pirate and make a race of it!

    How the fuck is that going to help anything? It's operated by the wrong limb.

    Actually, it's just there because it's the only remote res master cylinder I had and the other style foul the fairing at full lock.

    I can't get the idea of modulating brake bias with the hand operated critter. That Brembo is actually the right size to drive the massive Willwood we have up the front.

    So you're only hand operated on the front?

    Na. Two masters on the foot brake, one operates the big brake up front. The Brembo just works the emergency at the moment.

    I wonder, is there mention in the rules about a brake operated by the passenger?

    We mounted one to the pitbike sidecar chair wheel, for tight left turns.
