Exactly what I'm hoping for !!

Im' also hoping that a click does something! haha.. rebound is shot, literally no adjustment after a session on track. I'm assuming it overheats either through lack of nitrogen in the reservoir or old sludgy oil

It's a good series. I thought the ideas would dry up after season 2 but they've done well to keep it fresh. Agreed, I thought once old ginger boy died it'd be all over. She's a fruitcake thou' could you imagine living with her (fubar). Actually it's ...

Looked at it, smoking exhaust, petrol fumes galore and hot as anything after finishing todays 70mile round trip... and wandered... how many times can I do this 70mile trip on a 2003 blade that already has 49k on the clock? :( any advice on keeping this going... ...

... I'm not suprised what's happening. Not sure of the laws over there but in the uk the sales of goods act can be used for warranty type claims, way after a manufacturers warranty has ended too. It just means even less people will buy an aprilia so they will lose out long term. Sad the owner loses ...

... I wish these had have been about 3 yrs ago (facepalm) would have saved me a lot of work and money, I paid more than this just for the tail piece after the US company stitched me up and sent it as commercial goods and cost me AU$400 in duty and import tax. But thought this might be useful for ...

I think BSD do a before and after run for comparisons.

You're looking at around 8bhp increase but it's more about the power delivery.

What was the bhp gain before/after?

Numbers are pretty meaningless unless tested back to back

And totally irrelevant unless tested on the same machine, altitude, temperature, time of day, etc, etc, etc

fish and chips. A nice surprise after coming home from the gym...........

I had a K&N on mine when I bought it. It did over 20,000 miles when I changed it and I would clean it at every service (maximum 4,000 miles but after every trackday and 1,000 miles otherwise). It wouldn't clean after a while so I replaced it with a BMC and it felt much better through the midrange ...

... more interesting. Loads of people hate the way F1 drivers are nothing but corporate mouthpieces now. Bring back Hunt being stoned and womanising after a race, Senna getting out of his car to tw@ someone, Mansell arguing at interviews. Yes they are racers but we want the whole package. Stoner ...

Hickman is a bit of a beast isn't he.. and a really friendly character.

The good thing with the new ZX10R which will help the racers is that it is more of a 'tick' than a 'tock' bike. Unlike the R1 where it took an age for people to get used to it, the ZX10R should be ready to go after a few tests

Apparently Yamaha management weren't happy he was (in their words) not using a premium brand of helmet so perhaps after the 2 high profile incidents last season they have given the decision a helping hand.

I think it was inevitable after the issues he had in two races this season.

I guess Shark want a top rider wearing their gear and have paid him handsomely to do so.
