3 hours 40miles Fook that! All the best with the bike. Enjoy. CBT will be a walk in the park. Then get the DAS booked

Now your talking

I had read it was a combination of pressing the buttons for trip counter etc. A quick call to the dealers and they should be able to tell you over the phone. If I find it in the manual for the R6 in the mean time you can give that a try.

I assume you would have done but have you checked the voltage of the battery?

Would be great if you could make it along to this. Any more takers. Dont forget it is a bank holiday monday.

You will find that you actually do it naturally without even realising it. However I was looking at it towards the back end of last year and here are a couple of articles I found http://www.totalmotorcycle.com/school-SectionFiveB.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Countersteering And also a couple of brief videos here http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=...countersteering

Welcome

Tanks for clearing that up Sure as hell dont want to be tarred with the same brush as that breed.

Thanks

I shall be attending Santa Pod on the above date for a public track day inorder test the 1/4 mile time on the bike. For more information please see http://www.rwyb.co.uk/dates.htm The cost for the day will be £30 + Fuel and Food. Anyone is welcome to join me.

Hi. Yeah it was late when I posted It should say 19/05 - 03/06 Will send PM thanks.

Well I have no plans as yet other than what is in the title but earlier today I decided that I would take a 2 week holiday. It was alread booked for other reasons that have now been cancelled. Rather than swapping holidays I thought what better way to spend the time than clocking up some serious miles. So on Friday the 19th of may I shall head south to the channel tunnel and then I guess I will be making a right turn. Other than that I will be planning it from here on in. Any advice of routes, places to stay and visit will be much appreciated. Previous experiences? Really any information from rider out there. As to a final destination I am not sure yet either I guess sticking as coastal as possible after entering spain it will be Barcelona, Valencia, Alicante then Murcia, Granada, Malaga, Marbella, Gibraltar. What I would like is a few realaxing beach days and then some time in the moutains of Andalusia. Thanks.

Seen that one before love it. Only problem is the computer at work filters everything

Sweet choice of bike. Guess what I got for my first bike after passing the test? What year do you have Cant really offer much advice but ride safe. Look after the bike it will look after you. But push it and as I am sure you are already aware it has the ability to bite you hard. Ride safe and stick around.

Good stuff. Can we see more of them

Insurance is self restricting in that sense much more than it is for bikes. So unless you are from a rich background you can not afford to run a performance car. Unless you are talking about restriction to a sub 1.6 vehicle?

Unless it was a major MOT failure and they just wated to kill it.

LMAO Cant wait. Finally something worthwhile on TV

Hello. Welcome to the site.

Have MAG made their comments known on this subject yet?

Still taking it easyish on mine. I passed my test 3 weeks ago on Tuesday and picked my 04 R6 up straight after passing. Just done over 1000 miles now and it hasn't bitten me yet. The rev range is so long on it you can really control the power delivery so you would have to be stupid to make the bike do something stupid.

Why woul you do that

I am always looking for an excuse to clock up some miles now. Done 954 since passing test on on the 20th. Anyway as for finding the fun road check out these sites. http://www.bytefactory.com/mcycle/index.shtml http://www.bestbikingroads.com/

Well it seemed a good excuse for a nice ride out. Overall it was quite a good day. I was there with a 125 club stand. Thought I would show some loyalty as we have all been there and especially with me only recently passing. A few stall but it was good to browse round many of the manufacturers stands Well I didnt really take too many pics but here are the ones that I did get. First few pics are at the last stop on the way home. Just look at the size of the rear tyre on this thing A busa with lots of bling. More money than sense. Not to my taste but it caught the eye One police bike you wouldnt mess with, although you should be able to lose it on the bends ;D

All my mileage has been based on is big runs. The daily commute if you can call it that is 1.5 miles each way whatever it is it can never be as bad as my previous V8 Merc. The average with that beast was around 18-22.
