I too was hoping you were going to say it's a horrendous bike... I love the look of these things and would love to own one.

Still, glad you had a great ride out on it - think you should borrow one for saturday and the multi for the sunday and do back to back testing

... Yorkie Bar.....military-grade Yorkie Bar, I might add. (muscle) I stand by by statement, it is impossible to calculate the cost of a war....if it were, the 'estimates' would not vary so greatly as they do.

Bit late but as Kwacky said, those are shite. They 2006 model of them were on my track bike when j bought it, like cheese! The foot pegs were drooping from the bent plates and all the placement adjustment holes threads were corroded and stripped. I put Vortex ...

... back to Eccleshall, i still had plenty of time left so decided to go out towards Newport and back via Woodseaves. Big mistake! Firstly dark clouds were gathering out towards Wales and after one long straight i could see Police Slow signs and went round a bend to find a cop car across the road and ...

... the warmer go straight back on to prevent those heat cycles as they degrade the tyre performance. Personally I didn't use those on track if they were over 2yrs old, as both temp changes in your garage and sunlight will degrade the rubber, however if you want to check the date on them it should ...

Not sure on warmers either....location is everything....we used to get told 2 laps to get them up to temp....but then it's hot as fcuk to begin with??


3 year old tyres should be dumped....means you just had them 3 years,,,,God knows when they were made....?

We were pretty much bankrupt before we joined the EU. We still owed loads of money WW2 at the time. Hmmm....care to elaborate on that?? Not doubting it for a second...but it seems like there was a gradual process....first the ...

Someone else may say different but I thought the SC compounds were to be used with warmers and not exposed to heat cycles. I'm sure they will be OK but maybe not at there best, but if not pushing lap record pace and using as a summer road tyre you maybe ...

I'm sure they will be OK but maybe not at there best, but if not pushing lap record pace and using as a summer road tyre you maybe fine.

... they're not meant for this weather. I'd have no major concern using them. I went to watch BSB at silverstone a while back using these tyres, they were low on tread and it was pissing down.. exiting a roundabout there was a long left sweeper onto the dual carriageway and I powerslid for the entire ...

... a pretty good deal by joining the EU...there's going to be a downside, but the positives outweigh the negatives. Jingoism and 'Splendid Isolation' were great in their day, but that day has passed.

I bet that twitch felt massive when you were on the bike.

I'm from a little place near Hull too .!

FYI there's also Matty Laws on here from Hull too, MLR193.

I would pop some wets if I were you mate. (nod) Less expensive than repair parts. Fyi the first time I ever went to Oulton it was wet, & I was wearing Slippery Corsa's. Despite the fact that I was tottering round in the novices I found ...

No mate not me haha you on tdr were abouts in east Yorkshire you from am from little place near hull.

Cadwell is a good track

I'd stick with the old one and ride accordingly. I've run SC01 and SC02s over winters and in the wet and always been surprised how good they were.

You'll know straight away if it doesn't feel right, just back off

I heard that world supers were going back to Brands , if they can surely motogp can , but I'd like it to return to Donington , they are spending money , the suites on Kraners have gone and I imagine when they have finished the remodelling they'll spend some cash on the facilities

... actual NIP as well as the postmark. There are exceptions to when an NIP needs to be given, for example after an accient where you know that you were involved in a crash, but as I said, stopped at the side of the road, verbal NIP is sufficient, caught by a camera or other allegation, then written ...

When I served, my attitude was always treat others how I myself would like to be treated regardless of what sort of arse hole or attitude they were or had, because at the end of the day we always had the last laugh of being able to slap a FPN on them or summons them to appear at court. But, ...
