Marquez continues to set new boundarys :? I just didn't think the boundary would be missing out on a FP3 top 10 place and subsequently automatically qualifing for Q2 (giggle) Looks like he will have to work hard on Q1 and then probably blitz every one in Q2 anyway (giggle) just because he can (y)

Dovi currently top in fp3.

I see Cal Crutchlow is tipping Ducati for a win.

Tbh Rossgo my bike rarely gets dirty as tend to ride when forecast dry and worst that happens is I get caught in the odd shower.

Good tip on the spray bottle for hard to reach areas I will mix up some shampoo and use that method, cheers for the idea pal.

He is definitely entertaining I agree Rossgo which is as you say why the producers will have focused on him. I think the other top riders were put out as they got limited coverage compared to GM and in their words GM hasn't won a TT, yet anyway.

Personally I like GM both on and off track.

Why would you risk a collision at any time but with your kids in the car it is just ridiculously stupid.

That's a mega deal on wheels, discs and tyres

A lot of the top racers were unhappy with it mainly as its the Guy Martin show, but have to say I enjoyed it.

I have always just used Autoglymn car shampoo as I buy it in bulk for washing the car. Are these bike specific bike cleaners worth trying ? Why are they better than a good quality shampoo ? Am I missing out on something ?

Brembo are the daddies but not cheap.

I have always used OEM but do have some galfer wavy ones on the sp and happy with them.

Why not go for a nearly new 1299s instead of a 1299 base model Duke ?

Yes that's what I was think Rossgo. Got to be worth a try.

What the hell is Rhinos Goo ?

Hope you got it from the right end

Good film, watched it last week.

Less than 24 hours until first practice

Which do you prefer Frankie, XR or GS ?

Must just be in my head then

Nothing new there tbh, I m a worrier by nature and always over analyse stuff

Barbers sets a new record in fp2.

217.8 mph

My thinking is same as you Kwacky. Any direct impact to the chest or ribs has to be better if wearing a chest protector.

Like you Duke. I thought they were cheap enough to give it a try.

Tbh one of the main reasons to change exhausts these days is looks and noise as they rarely make much more power. The OEM exhaust on a lot of bikes are often full titanium these days and well designed to give good power.

Enjoy it kiwi any TD's planned ?

Can I have job at your place please Frankie
