Dose any one have a top fairing from a cbr 900 rrn, im desprete for one. Ive now sorted the clutch etc and its about ready for next spring.. Just short of the top fairing now..

just found this advice, maybe some use?? !The actual test itself isnt that difficult however I believe there is and will continue to be an issue for some people in getting up to the required speed. Not so much on a DAS bike as you have enough power to accellerate hard out of the turn before the speed trap. On a 125 it could be a bit hard as if you dont carry enough speed round the bend then it will be impossible to gain enough before the speed trap. We have found that 2nd gear for both DAS and 125 seems to work but on the 125 it means the poor little engine is screaming its nuts off and you will likely be almost scraping your foot round the curve! ................................................................................................................................................................. !Woohoo.... I passed my mod 1 today on a 125cc bike - the thing to do is razz it round in 2nd gear - your bike will scream at you but it has more chance than in 3rd gear of getting the speed - and whatever you do don't look at the speedo, look ahead of you. I failed last time in 3rd gear and coz I was looking at the speedo - this time I passed and I ignored the speedo and did it in 2nd. It was also wet and I had managed to monumentally crash - bike was nearly a write-off - doing a practice emergency stop just an hour earlier. So if I can do it SO CAN YOU!!!!!!! (and I'm just a wussey girl!) !

Yeah ya could be rite, its not as tho you can practice on a mod1 course either. I walked around the course before i took the test to see it and judge the surface for the swerve etc

very true. I guess you could go round the corner at about 25mph then least you will come out of the corner at a fast pace ready to open the throttle full, ive only done it on a 500 so i cant say for sure whats best but some one on here will have done it on a 125

You need to be doing about 20mph then floor the bugger just has you straighten up on the straight. I guess its harder on a 125 tho? In the box you only need the front wheel in there

What a bloody awesome day today was.. best day iv had on the bike since ive had it. It was good to meet you guys and cheers voodoo for meeting up with me in Macc. Tell ya what tho, im ready for bloody bed

worth lookin at this if you are going to this event http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/News/ ... ?id=118265

Stormy petrel in turnhill is a good ride out on a Thursday night.. if you can find anyone that goes to it. I went a couple of weeks ago and it was pretty good..

the swerve is nothing providing you DON'T brake as your doing it.. Maybe in the wet its a bit more challenging.. Try and go and see some one doing the mod2 and you will get to see the course for yourself

great stuff.. incidentally iv just orderd a all in one rain suit, no doubt it will rain at some point

mmmmm i see what ya sayin. the bike is in mint con so i would like the tank to be in the condition it was in before i dented it. (if poss) Iv got it booked into a garage tomo for them to look at but in the mean time im going to look for another tank

Yeah i'm ok with that. what time will you be @ sainsburys? and is it on Middlewich Road? Think Voodoo is coming from macclesfield so might be worth asking him to join up too

Ive managed to dent my tank when i was wheeling the bike back wards. it kinda fell away from me onto a gate post that i was going through. What would be the best thing to do: Look for another tank, which I'm finding bloody hard to find OR have it repaired but then will it look as good has before???

awww better sort my helmet out quick

Im in.. mite need to get a clear visor before hand

Cracking morning for a good out.. see you later

yeah sounds good.. if its raining then il prob miss out but all been well it will be a dry day. see you tomo

If i meet at disley, is there a petrol station on the main road or a garage or something that i can pull into and wait for you guys other wise i will see a couple of bikes go past and i will still be sitting there

i may try to attend. iv got nothing on tomo so all been well i can go out for a burn

Thanks for the help guys.. all been well i can find something

Im after a set of the front fairing stickers for my blade, i have a new front fairing but finding the stickers is a nightmare.. Any ideas where i can ge a set???
