Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

Birmingham Kawasaki. They'll give me a loan bike for the day so it makes sense

If the zx6r was on the road then Mike could have collected the SX but I can't be without both bikes for a few days.

Re: Road-going Honda RCV unveiled

I see Honda have announced that one of these bikes will be built each day, with production ending at the end of 2016

A bargain price of just £137,000.

Re: IoM TT 2015 photo thread

With Kwacky, 4 is my fav but there's not a bad photo in that lot at all The bikes are incredibly sharp, guess your panning with the bike and shooting on a really high speed? I can imagine that's not an easy shot to get, let alone a full series of top shots. Your ...

Re: Kiwi Krash Report

Nowt I can say that'll make it better Kiwi, however you're still mobile, the bikes still rideable and you know exactly what happened, I've been lucky to nail two out of three of those at times when I've crashed, so whilst it won't really help I'd say you came ...

Re: IoM TT 2015 photo thread

Great to see a Bimota racing. that and the Norton/Aprilia (which sounds like rolling thunder inside your head ) are the 2 best looking bikes here ( personal preference obviously ) Yes I've sacrificed a huge amount of f/stop but luckily the camera has really good high iso performance with ...

Re: What are you doing today ??

Had a lovely walk down the Thames again only this time in Marlow. Such great weather and seen so many bikes all of which looked like they were having a hoot! http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/06/07/9c94cbad81c489cc53b162bcf2d2c96f.jpg http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/06/07/80c44c7483bfb07e1ac1ae90c528cb27.jpg

Re: One life already claimed at the TT

Let's not forget that these bikes are stupidly fast now and are packed with loads of tech to make them quicker. Changes to the courses might be needed for rider safety.

Triumph Hinckley Classic Programme (cheap stuff)

... but we decided as there's so much of it, that it seemed too much of a waste. Especially for the owners out there who have cared for their bikes this long (although we'd prefer them to buy a new one :D ) So we have reviewed the prices, and cut so much off RRP that we are hoping people out ...

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??

Re: Chain and sprockets

... from is the alloy sprockets. And not sure about the gen3 but the gen4 only has a 525 chain as stock which is quite unusual as most powerful road bikes are 530 as stock. Personally speaking unless you like wasting money and changing chains I would stay with OEM spec abd size of chain and buy alloy ...

Re: Lens Covers

Bikes designed with two headlights are designed to work like that and a single headlight, in my experience is not enough. I like the look of the covers ...

Re: Lens Covers

Re: Lens Covers

I'm not a fan of lens covers, however speaking as someone that sees literally hundreds of bikes whilst I'm in traffic, (sadly I'm not on a bike here) a coloured lens cover really shows up in the mirrors whilst the rider is filtering, pretty much regardless of colour ...

Re: TT races1962

I saw some of the footage from the very early races. Those bikes were big engines in a frame and the riders were wearing little protection. Nutters.
