Re: Malaysian MotoGP Sepang (spoilers)

Watched it again tonight with Spudlet 2 and the over head shot does 'appear' that Rossi stuck his knee in to MM's fairing I watched the overhead too after reading this to see as I'd only seen the side view. the side view appears that MM's head makes contact first but on the overhead it looks more l...

Re: Malaysian MotoGP Sepang (spoilers)

I wonder which Rossi we will see at Valencia though, I'd like to see him bounce back and win the title from this. If Lorenzo were to win he'd need to beat everyone else and make it in to second to win it which I think would be good to watch.

Re: Malaysian MotoGP Sepang (spoilers)

People get run wide all the time and nobody screams about it. The running MM wide was on purpose, the crash was just a racing incident. MM's head clearly crashed into Rossi's leg with some force and he quite clearly just pushes him back away with it. If MM had have stayed on there would have been no...

I'd be interested to hear how you all get on.

I saw that too. seems best to test it as soon as you get it to see if it's a dud or not.

Re: Back on two wheels

the bigger 650cc version came with the food hotplates..... heated seats and grips. I tested out the weather protection today on the ride home from work, stayed mainly dry from the waist down but I found I need a new jacket as it leaked like I may as well have not bothered with it. booked a full clea...

I'm not fond of the chromed mirrors though, they look really tacky but I'm very fond of the body panel colour.

I prefer it to a traffic jam.

Back on two wheels

After a year off bikes because I needed a car at the time, I finally got fed up with Birmingham traffic and bought a 400cc Suzuki Burgman scooter and it's ace 8) I chose it for practicality as it's just for commuting, it's got decent weather protection, plenty of storage and enough oomph for the mot...

Re: Ducati winglets

maybe it added to the increased front wear on lorenzos bike though, it looked cut up a bit more than rossis during the race (although it could have been to do with rossi taking it a little easier at the start)

Re: Motorcycle Valeting

If it dies weigh it in and move on to the next bike. Someone will always buy it for scrap once I'm finished with it.
I usually try to wash mine occasionally but I do a terrible job of it so getting a pro in would be a far better option.

Re: Helmets

They all differ even in from same manufacturer guys so don't be put of a brand because one particular model didn't fit. I can wear some Arai and some I can't. It's also the same with Shoei there is quite a variance between models in each manufacturers range in my experience. (f1) I once bought a Sh...

Re: The Joys of Autumn comutting

Public transport is so expensive though. I looked into using the train, it's no quicker than the car and costs 3X as much too. I think I need to buy another bike to commute on.
