There's some real innovative concepts on this beast.....especially in the front end, such as an Adjustable Trail @ the axle.....& what they call Coaxial Steering @ the triple clamps. here.....Have a look for yourselves...... http://www.motoczysz.com/main.php?area=bike I just read where they are also looking for data aquisition technicians as well......definitely a growing company. This would have to be the Coolest Drafting job I could ever have! Fingers Crossed!

Since I just landed a new job starting on my lad's birthday next Tuesday... Decided to celebrate him turning 9 a little early ..... He was stoked about getting a proper bike......just got to face a bit of a vertical learning curve in coming to grips with the Clutch I figure by my birthday in June, he'll be ready to head over to Central Oregon with me & tear up my brother's 10 acre spread. After scrambling to fix an oil leak (bad clutch cover gasket) only an hour before I gave it to him ......I had a go on it just up the street......& I gotta say......the little beast goes pretty well for an 80cc Thump! ......can really feel the effect of…

....For Nori Haga as he claimed (2) 2nd place finishes while mixing it up with Bayliss in BOTH races @ Silverstone this last weekend ...... The 1st 6-8 laps of race 2 were superb with Chris Walker in that mix as well......going 3 abreast into a few of those bends! And Hats Off to this chap for cinching Pole position @ his 1st WSB event as a Wildcard entry .....

For all you poor bastards still languishing in Blair's Brave New World, here's a trip I took yesterday. It'll cheer you up! From Huescar in Granada to Urra in Almeria! For the thickos amongst you....that's in Spain! It was a 250 mile round trip in great weather! :cool: I headed south from Huescar to Cullar and then picked up the A92 motorway for about 20 miles. Turn off at Chrivel....and that's when it gets interesting. It's a 40 mile run through the mountains to Albox, but as usual when you get off the major roads, the surfaces turn to crap and it gets very narrow. The Beemer takes it all in it's stride though.... The roa…

My wife & I saw a similar exhibition like this once......with a Father & Son duo riding XR100's. If the riders get close enough to each other during this routine, the globe starts to shake like a washing machine outta balance during the spin cycle! Globe of Death

Awesome to see Norick Abe finish 4th in both WSB races last weekend @ Valencia....especially ahead of Haga who fancy's the Ricardo Tormo track alot. I remember when he 1st broke into the Big League's with his sterling effort against the likes of Rainey & Schwantz @ the Japanese GP @ Suzuka back in the early 90's......as a Wildcard rider. It never seems like this guy got discouraged with less than desirable results the last few years....... Maybe all his hard work & determination is finally starting to pay-off?

...But I love MotoCross Madness II! After recently uprgrading my PC to Windows XP Pro edition.....& getting a new Joystick controller, I decided it was about time I called in the services of a good friend of mine who's an avid PC gamer, to Reload MM2 for me........he's done the research & found loads of extra tracks, bikes & riders....so the version I know have blows away the outta the box version that anyone else could buy. And besides.....Where else can you Fly this High on 2-Wheels? ...... I'm thinkin' seriously now, of getting the MotoGP game for my PC as well.

The YamaHead now has a bluddy H*nda in his collection! Just got through sorting this out for my little lad today..... Gotta stash it @ my folk's house on Monday as my lad's coming home from a 2 week vacation to Hawaii & California on Tuesday. This'll be his 9th Birthday pressie in May. This poor bike was rode hard & put away wet ......absolutely filthy!.....tore it down to the frame, cleaned everything.....then installed New Brakes, cables, chain & sprockets (still waiting for the primary). It's even got a aftermarket cam in it & had the flywheel lightened a bit.... I picked it up for only $400 & put another $100 …
