I do love the tyre pattern on Rossi 4, looks very apt for the MT. Got to have a bit of a play in the wet yesterday, levels above the previous almost slick Dunlop. Guess this is the best compromise I'm prepared to take without going to a more all season tyre.

Todays the day, keep us updated

Hey welcome aboard, that's certainly a nice upgrade, you're going to love it!

Know exactly what you mean when it comes to commuting on a bike vs public transport. Public transport out here is pretty poor considering we're a large city. I don't mind the rain so much, it's the hot days. Sucks being in bike gear sat on an engine in 35+!

Hope he's ok, I had the same recently, used to have an amazing mobile guy with a kitted out van. Who'd come to my place and most of time fix/service on site. Occasionaly when really busy, they'd just take the bike to their workshop and bring it back. He had a heart attack and has now stopped working. Have the pain in the ass now of having to take my bike to the garage and wait around or uber back etc.

@neo sadly quite a lot of tread left, they're the Dunlop sportmax, relly don't have much tread, perfect dry weather tyre for Sydney roads. Bit too sketchy in the wet for my liking though, so went with the Rossi 4 this time. @Mr Bignel totally, I would never skimp on tyres, have always bought the best I could afford. Never know when that extra capacity is needed. The Yamaha dealer, Racecourse Motors did an awful job of fitting the tyre, had a really uncomfortable ride home. I realised 1km down the road something was wrong, but didn't have time to go back due to needing to pick the kids up. Later that evening I discovered there was about 3mm chain slack when the bike was on it's sidestand, and the rear wheel was well out of alignment. Really wasn't expecting that from a dealer. They said I could bring the bike back and they'd fix it, but they're about 20km away so quicker to do it myself. Can't comment on the tyre yet, it was raining today, but didn't want to push a new tyre in the wet. IMG_0067.MOV

This looks like bloody scrapnel, doubt this is repairable. Anyway happy Friday all!

Happy new year all!

Happy Christmas all!

After rewatching it, I failed to notice the BMW brake lights flashing as it started an emergency stop and also it's hazard lights. I guess the other issue is pupil dilation and from the light going bright dark bright dark.

So far looking good, fingers crossed this is the problem solved, looks this way from the data, but please let me know if you notice any issues.

Well had a close call on the way to work. To be completely honest here I'm 50:50 whether this was my mistake or just bad luck. I always keep to the left on this particular exit as the road merges ahead and it gives me the space to run off to the left if anything like the video were to happen. Don't want to say more than above, will let you guys critique.

Well the issue has now been passed to their advanced team, hopefully this gets fixed in time for the weekend.

Still having the same ongoing issue I'm afraid. The forum keeps trying to write a 70k to a database table until it gets full then the server crashes. I've raised the issue with IPB but they still haven't got back to me on it. Getting frustrating, the only option is to restart the server and wait until it crashes again. But not as easy as just hitting restart unfortunatly. I've defaulted the default theme just to see if it resolved any issues, it didn't, but this is what the IT team will first look at so keeping it as is until resolved.

Sorry guys, this last upgrade to v5 of IPB hasn't been great, I've got multiple errors with their team to look at. There's just been another update this morning, I'm hoping this has finally resolved it. Please let me know if you still experience issues. A screenshot would be great if you notice antyhing. Thanks for your patience and sorry again. Been a massive headache to me too.
