Re: Well wasn't expecting this!
... the funds for much more! Although don't want to mess up the handling, it's a real balancing act. Unsure whether the basic will be as good as 10 year old technology, if so them would be happy to just get some cheap! Of this was a new bike then I would happily pay more on something better to keep ...

Re: Replacement discs

Well wasn't expecting this!
... not having the money for a great piece of kit that has everything So my question is will on a new modern basic rear shock be ok on a 10 year old bike, instead of having a shock that has all the bells and whistles? Funds are tight Am considering one of these https://www.hagon-shocks.co.uk/catalog/partdetail.aspx?partno=M61051" ...

Re: Panigale 1299S demo ride
I must admit I do fancy a Ducati Sportsbike at some point in my motorcycling career and the logical choice is a 1299s. I guess I need to hurry up though as I can already see myself leaning towards an adventure bike in a few year.

Panigale 1299S demo ride
... that bike had, seem to have been put right by Ducati and the 1299 works so much better on the road. I'm not in a position to buy a new bike this year and have a few other things to think about currently but when new bike time arrives, its definitely on the list.

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
I will revisit the decision making process later in the year but it's much more road useable than the 1199 is.

Indycar has been much better racing for the last 2 or 3 seasons and so far this year its been immense , the cars apparently have more downforce than the F1 cars and no power steering , which means they are a handful when trying ...

Re: Monaco Yesterday
I mean the driver makes the difference at Monaco not so much the car, a bit like the TT and nothing to do with overtaking.
They could have got through the whole race this year on a single set of soft tyres so they aren't pushing the cars to the limit, just the drivers Goolies!

... now. The ferry prices for a car or a couple of bikes now are frankly a pisstake. Even the classic TT is expensive as we looked at that for this year. We tended to go every two years and this is the first year we haven't gone, mainly due to cost and how busy the roads have now become during TT ...

... I do love Monaco. The sport needs a kick in the arse but as has been said, Monaco is the showpiece.
