Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
... saying how stiff the suspension was and how I must of been aching after I had rode it...I didn't really realise just how much it was in need of getting set up. When he had finished he said it will be more comfortable, have a quicker turn in and feel easier to ride and that i would love it...literally ...

Re: Creepy Clowns
It's getting out of hand. People are now trying to find these clowns with baseball bats. It's now become an excuse to beat people up. I don't understand how anyone can think it's acceptable to try to scare people like this if ...

... in paperback as I save my good books for the helicopter trips but you can't take hardcovers on-board (possible projectile during a crash, though getting banged in the head by a hardcover would be the least of your problems!) but the cheapest I could find a paperback new was $AUD100 (shocked) ...

Re: Catalunya October 2016
The theoretical speed with the gearing and 180/60 I had was 176mph - I just checked again. I was getting past 16,000RPM and seeing 174mph on the dash. With the 200 section tyre the top speed would have been 177mph. Either way, I was winning drag races with other 600s and ...

Re: Ducati Superleggera Mk 2 - 215bhp
Didn't they claim 326 bhp for the H2R but dyno tests were getting 250 ish.

Re: Brexit
... get very very messy. May has said she doesn't want Parliament to vote on the Brexit issues. So that's democracy out of the window.

Re: The new improved fitness thread
Some people in the village are getting a running group setup, so I went out with one of them this morning for a cheeky 6 miler.
Was really nice, clear blue sky no wind. Really enjoyed the run.
