Yeah i spray all the alloy bits around the engine with the stuff to stop it corroding 8)

Well im normally always just wash them everytime i use the bike and rub a hard wax on them. But there was some road tar on them (At last hot sticky tarmac 8) ) Should have just polished it off rather than trying to take the easy way :evil:

The trick i used to use on my motorcross bikes was to slide something under the grips and move around, spray some wd40 in there, twist and hey presto they come off. Then leave them to soak in hot soapy water and wash them off. Spray the insides with hairspray and quickly slide on making sure that they are the right way round, leave for a few minutes and hey presto 8)

Thinking about it i brought my Paddock stand from busters think it was cheaper as they do cheaper delivery and i got a free bobbin kit 8)

Cant believe what i have just done!!! :cry: :cry: I was outside cleaning my bike, and someone phoned me up so i was just chatting away and not really thinking and sprayed alloy wheel cleaner over my rims! I completely forgot you cant put the stuff on polished alloy !! :oops: :oops: So now i have white stains all over my wheels :evil: Have spent about an hour so far polishing with autosol and its coming off, but what a stupid thing to have done :shock:

Well if i dont get anything from M&P its from my local yamaha dealers Keys in worthing

Thats why i love both :wink:

Then again what 2 strokes we could afford are as quick as an R1 :roll:

Yeah i never knew the tanks could split :shock:

I love both, as both have different advantages 8) But i do miss the rush of my old CR250 :evil: never had a 2 stroke roadie though :evil:

Vince Whittle! Thats it 8)

Yep it defo was a BSB race, and yep thats old Nori. Cant remember whos bike it was though.... :roll: Will annoy me now :evil:

Pot Kettle Black :wink:

Perseverance :wink:

Yeah i dont like getting my left knee down as im worried that i might crash into oncoming traffic :shock:

The unrestricted ones go to 13 i think :roll: Cant remember now :? Mozzy???

What does it rev up to though as i am pretty sure that they restrict the rpm of the engine :roll:

Nope :cry: I was well jealous though, i was coming back from a night out in Kingston, and driving down the A24 i must have seen around 100 bikes! :shock: I so so so so need to get my bike out :evil:

My leathers look pretty fecked :shock: But they are twice as good now as they are covered in extra leather patches Never came off on the road though, touch wood ! Can still remember getting me knee down first time, i was trying so hard to put my knee down and just couldnt do it, but as soon as i just tried to go fast it goes down easy, weird that :roll: Me ripping up tarmac on my local test route :wink: http://members.lycos.co.uk/alexasigno/medown.jpg
