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

Re: Aprilia, Race ECUs and warranty
... then the greatest possible performance is sought, at the sacrifice of efficiency & longevity. If the owner wanted to use it as a conventional road bike, then it shouldn't have been supplied with the race ECU.

Re: Suspension - reading between the bu!!sh!t

Re: 2016 ZX10R
2016 ZX10R is going to be a real weapon at the TT, NW200 & Ulster GP and I can see Kawasaki having a very good season in 2016 Road Racing.

Re: where to start with this one....
Does the bend really tighten up I can't see on my tiny phone screen if it is tight or not and didn't notice any chevrons or other warning signs or road markings.
