When it comes to air a smoother surface actually hinders flow - airplane wings aren't smooth, they're deliberately textured to allow the air to move more freely thus creating less drag. I would love to make one from scratch using ANSYS (FEA) software to calculate a theoretical best result and then g...

Sorry I forgot to say - I go past the camera bike at the first corner and you can see me for a bit on the following corners

I would like to try the national layout

Just found some more footage of me on YouTube

After a discussion with a colleague it quickly became apparent that there are different ideologies behind Cylinder Head Porting. My colleague and friend believes that increasing the size of the ports increased the volume you can pump in (volumetric flowrate) My belief is that you want to improve the...

Tonight: Gym with the girlfriend for some cardo, Netflix'n'chill and possibly do some homemade burgers with pulled pork and sweet potato chips. Saturday: Gym in the morning, day with the girlfriend doing whatever takes our fancy, probably a meal out in the evening to celebrate my girlfriend losing 1...

There he goes.. balling his eyes out again. Valentino Pussy if you ask me.

Drink 100 cans of Man The F*ck Up, it might make you grow a pair

Lol.. I cannot afford that!

Got a 2 week holiday I'm paying off for June next year in Fuertaventura with 17 other people which will be fun! Plenty of alcohol to be had !!

Does anyone watch Jekyll and Hyde on ITV? I can't remember what day it is on and if I've missed one or not but what a program !!! I think I've seen 2 maybe 3 episodes

No. I'm keeping track of my weight and how I look/how much stubborn fat is on my stomach. If I stay the same weight and can feel my skin fold getting thinner and I can see a difference in the photos then I'm happy. I think I'm about about 16-18% and I want to drop it to around 12% for June next year

P.S. Bike improvements are most worthwhile with rider improvements to match - track tuition is worth just as much in speed on track as bike mods and can be very satisfying. Here here !! As for what you were saying about the running wide when picking up the pace, without changing any settings I mana...

Grenade Thermodetonator pills.. I must say they're giving me a constant warm feeling in my stomach and chest - yay

They're fat burning pills by the way. Caffiene, Cayenne, bitter orange powder, and various other things. So say they work!

So last night the girlfriend and I took our 2 month progress photos and whilst I wasn't looking forward to seeing them (I feel I've put on since the 1 month mark) there is more definition around the pecks and shoulders and a little less fat roll over my boxers. My back looks exactly the same except ...

Fwiw I totally agree with the comments re the Inters group, there are a lot of egos in that group that belong in novices (at best), the amount of reds shows the problems involved and although chrono days came about to prevent that, people don't like being told they're too slow for that group - very...

Ideal.. if I had savings I'd offer you a part exchange (because no one can turn down a 2009 ZX6R!) with cash your way.

I'll let my mate know anyway, I'm not sure he was planning on spending that much though

I suspect you're probably right.

Yes, that really would be fun! haha.

I suspect Pedrosa might do really well next year. I hope so anyway. I don't think there's a single person (besides Rossi or Lorenzo) that would mind Pedrosa winning a title.

Someone else for Rossi to cry about !!

Any news on mileage and your whereabouts? I've just shown this to a friend who lives near me in Gloucestershire..

I don't do enough cardio. I need to get my bike sorted and back on the road. It's only a cheap hybrid but it's good enough for me. I've been toying with the idea of getting a bike too and starting training for a Triathlon - then I realise how stupid that sounds! haha... I struggle with Cardio too a...

Typically the rear suspension is the weak link on Japanese bikes. I'd be surprised if a fork/shock refresh made any noticeable difference without changing the springs as the oil is still pretty new and probably not had a great deal of hard use. Next time you do a trackday, go to the suspension guy a...

Nice ! I've done something similar. So I'll do Back, Chest, Shoulders, Legs on their own days. As well as that I do at least one day of mixed activities trying to use body weight as much as possible in place of weights. This includes: Jump squats with leg tuck, push ups, pull ups, 1 leg weighted squ...
