  1. I shall make an appearance depending on rain.
  2. weather looks poo! even considering going to get my helmet in the car if it's there today
  3. We went on a Rutland run this morning!
  4. 54 mpg - good fuel consumption, so when are you taking the restriction off then? When you've got a bike fast enough to keep up with it
  5. Managed to get 54mpg on our ride on Sunday, and 47mpg on the way home+work mon&tues, little bit quicker next time please?
  6. probably the same as mine, i use the one from the toolkit (i will have the toolkit with me)
  7. That was very kind of you. I knew we were on the right way, that's one thing at least. You were holding well back as I had to catch the guys myself at some point. But I didnt get the invite for a coffee, is it because I overtook you once? The offer is still there, if you want swapsies or a cornering course. Cornering course! haha, she's really digging it in! You overtook me a couple of times, and there's no way I was having that! (p.s i'm the one in white leathers on the red CBR)
  8. I was thinking that, I'm dying to get a good set of linked corners to give myself a challenge, can't seem to find any around here that last longer than about 3 miles.
  9. Was a good day, all the concentrating around the backroads has given me a huge headache though, good run home, enjoyed the extra pace!
  10. Beg to differ, a decent launch on a sports bike (not an SV.. it's not sporty) will piss all over anything to 30
  11. Should have just left it in first you guys... oh wait... Jayne's can't hit 60 in 1st! pahahaha Let's have a race to 75, my 1st gear needs a work out
  12. psht, you bast*rd! much better than your rust bucket
  13. Never ridden a modern sports bike have you? we'll all be going home on stretchers.
  14. My brakes were a state when I got my tyres changed, anyone ever cleaned theirs? Guy (Nick) who changed my tyres said to get brake cleaner, spray over the pistons and push them back in, then keep repeating until clean, thinking i'll get some brake cleaner and use a toothbrush to give the pistons a clean. Brakes are good, just seem to have lost their initial bite.
  15. I may be bringing a pillion, an american girl I met on Sunday, nothing set in stone yet though.
  16. I shall be there, my presentation has been moved to tomorrow, not sure if that's good or bad
  17. 1:30? having a bubble aren't you? the best part of the day for riding is gone by then. I vote 11 or something around then.
  18. I've been taking it easy with the scrubbing process, only about 8-10mm chicken strips after the run to work this morning, they feel so planted and superb feel from the front, it just glides around corners without any drama, not tried opening it up mid corner yet though. Had an issue last night, got a bit happy in first and ran out of road, braked reasonably hard but the front tyre actually SKIPPED along the road, no heat in it at all, slightly scary, managed to lock the back as well, but then they are slightly waxy and hadn't warmed up at all.
  19. Just got my pilot Road 2's on, 35miles in and i like So who's about for a spirited ride?
  20. Took out the ZX10, managed to wheelie the crap out of it by accident It's far too much power for the road, but it is remarkably comfortable and soft, yet handled so well.
