Re: Onboard with McGuiness

... had more power and torque than last years , he doubts that a new bike next year will help a great deal , he has said ( not in public ) that there were two lunatics in front who were prepared to do anything in order to win and he was more than happy with his third place .

... that much is true, but I don't see him as being conniving in any sort of way....just speaks his mind in an honest manner. I rather there were more people like him, frankly.

Re: Happy Father's Day

Re: Ducati 748 - Road to track/road

The P4's were on the 998's as well i think there pretty cheap second hand and are a good upgrade i did this on my 996. The motor sounds good and the 853 was plenty quick enough according to Neil.

Ducati 748 - Road to track/road

... 58 torques. I would need to add a slipper clutch and might fit some Brembo P4 calipers as they can be bought fairly cheaply but i think theses were fitted to R models of that era so will give a bit more braking power. Would also need to change the fairing as the current one is pretty much mint ...

Re: K world live Saturday 18th June

Yep really enjoyed it. Though the track sessions were more than a little slow at times due to the instructors having to keep their group together i still enjoyed it and just enhanced the idea to make the 748 more track ready. Good to see friends ...

Re: The new improved fitness thread

Left the house last evening to go to the gym. By the time I got there I was soaked. The heavens had opened.

Going two days in a row isn't effective for me. I was still sore from the day before and so my deadlifts and chest press were weak.
