Sounds like this thread was finished two pages ago.

I can't wait to get back up to speed so I can witness the action from a little closer.

I'll have to get some evening seshs in at Brands

Heheh, I was halfway running across Preston Park when the hailstorm happened. Got completely sandblasted.

Now I've had a shower to warm up it's blazing sunshine.

After about 5 months of hibernation I went out for a nice long ride today. Excellent fun. More like ice scating than motorcycling, but I guess that's the closest we can get on the road this time of ...

It's the sort of bike I'd like to own, but I've never actually seriously considered buying one.

In fact, the only bikes I've given more than a moment's thought about buying are the ones I've gone o ...

So whats made you smile today??

Those 014 tyres.

They just keep getting better and better. I've got probably a couple of hundred miles on them now, andI had one of the best rides I've had on th ...

I wear one when it's dark and dingy in winter, and I notice the difference.

<---- and also on my first trackday Smile

Actually thats a point - where the heck can I spectate everyone else and not get wire mesh in my video?

At the back of the paddock, there's a point where the wire mesh is lower than the rest. It's ...

So at the risk of heading back on topic....

Chilli; what direction have you decided to take?

I'm considering it.

But I really shouldn't Wink

I'm skint

It explained that if your bike says it needs high octane fuel then you'd better put it in, bu ...

I agree - having "discovered" the track - my road-riding has "suffered" if you wish to see it that way.

... and that's a big 'if'.

In the last week, I've got the KTM covered in mud up on the dow ...

Something I noticed before I stopped going on fast rides with loadsa people was this; When we got to our destination, it was always the same people who were complaining about 'some idiot blind car dr ...

My wallet ain't up to it.

I need:

tyres for the R6
tyres for the KTM
24000 Service for the R6
Head gasket replacement for the KTM

I'm off the road for a month at least Sad

My KTM

White smoke out one end, black liquid out the other.

Do bikes have some sort of angle-induced engine cutoff?

The reason I ask is that I once had a zero mph 'fall' on my R6. I was looking at the chain while stopped at some lights and just lost my bal ...

Really good of you to offer, but I'll be seeing my parents after the track time.

Fook - did u drop it Al!!!!!

Nah, but it was close

Mate, that was more than a 'little slide'. I don't know how that bike didn't highside. The rear came out by about two foot.

Glad to hear you're OK. We were a bit worried when we got back to Made ...

what is the top speed of your KTM? what model is it?

It's a 660, and it's good for a ton.

wheelies

Nobody panic. It's a whole week away.

That half fairing looks 'orrible. Stick with the naked bike.
