Wet trackdays

... changing back to the supercorsa when the sun's out as that's infinitely preferable to the cost of fixing the bike. Or is riding to the track and getting scrubs of some sort fitted at the track an option? There's always a tyre guy at the track and I could throw my tyres in my mates car. Thoughts ...

... thing so I coasted to a stop. The bike does start but it's rattling. No engine light on the dash so that's ruling a few issues out. The CCT was getting noisy. Best case the CCT has failed and it's not done any damage, Worst case I don't want to think about. Mike will hae a look at it next week. ...

Re: There's never a copper around when you need one

When I got pulled on the Sprint RS I called my mate who is a partner specialising in criminal law. He didn't mention to me about getting the NIP in person. He told me about the 14 day rule but nothing else.

Re: There's never a copper around when you need one

Yep, I appreciate that.

As I said, I have no problem with getting pulled to get a friendly reminder there are police about and given my speed I'm happy that my licence remains points free.

Re: Sports touring tyre test

He does say that the tests were very close. I know that the PR4s are very popular.

I'm liking the Z8s on the SX, they seem to suit it. I'm getting decent mileage from them as well or though they are starting to square off but that's no surprise of 4,000 miles winter riding.

Re: Lorenzo and Ducati

... I know if it were me I'd be "Feck that guy, I pay his wages...I'll do what I want!!" ....and I think they frequently do that, just getting caught up in the moment?? On the plus side, at least they don't have the comms systems that car racing does....didn't they try those for a while??

Re: What are you doing today ??

Not today but in about 8 hours, getting on a plane with 4 kids to the south of France.

We took our first child backpacking in Vietnam, but the twins and middle child haven't really left Buxton so looking forward to watching their reactions when we take off.

Needless to say they are somewhat excited

Re: Project ZX6R

It's been cleaned more than it's been ridden this year. That'll soon change.

I had some black screen bolts on before. I'll see if I've still got them.

Lots still to do on the bike but it's getting there.

Re: We are being taken for mugs

... not an option especially when the western Nations are so massively in debt. It riles me so much because this is part of my job and the taxman is getting ever harder on small business and tax payers as apparently they need every penny. Yet big business and the wealthiest are left well alone.
