    I use protection every time... do you?

    I use Alpine earplugs ... 99% of the time. When doing small, slow rides I sometimes don't put them in.

    Interesting interview with Rossi...on 2010

    The chance of him winning are slim to none ... but I hope to see some action from him. And no serious crashes. I think Stoner will take it. @ first I really didn't like Stoner, crybaby ... but he rides so nice, plus he seems more mature. And the fact that he rode like hell the last...

    Clip-ons mod recomandations

    If you lower the triples enough to mount the clip-ons, the geometrie wil be altered to much ... My advice, don't do it. The max you sould lower the triple is 10mm. If the clip-ons hit the tank, you can always put "steering bumps" so the range of motion is less.

    Fz6 4 piston caliper upgrade from 2 piston caliper

    On the street they where good enough, on the track they wheren't. The stock 2pot aren't that bad at all, some braided lines and good pads (EBC HH) go a long way :thumbup:. But still even on the street it's nice to be able to brake hard with only 2 fingers. But I wouldn't spend so much time...

    Fz6 4 piston caliper upgrade from 2 piston caliper

    The guy does al his work by hand, no CNC ... so reproducing those will cost and I don't think he will like to do it ... Plus I live in Belgium ... Probably best to do a search localy. If you can get a R6 front end cheap ... get it ... I'm not a 100% fan of the R6 swap, but it's a very...

    Erik Buell Racing is up and running - 1190RR revealed

    The bike was a shop demo I could ride in the afternoon. Went on my fav roads here. Like you said ... I think a big deal can be gained from a good radial MC ... the brake has enough stopping power, I only found it to be on-off braking ... no braking, then very hard braking. Other then that...

    Erik Buell Racing is up and running - 1190RR revealed

    A good radial MC wil indeed help a lot with the feel I guess. The bike I rode was an '08 ... I liked the bike, I liked the torque a lot! And the gearbox was super smooth compared to my FZ6. The rider is quite important in motobike racing. And I would really like to see an 1190 running with...

    Erik Buell Racing is up and running - 1190RR revealed

    I rode the 1125 for half a day and found the front brake not so good. They have good stopping power, but no good feel. A modern radial setup gives a lot more feel with braking imho. And MotoGP have more power, weigh less and have a better chassis ... don't see the point of the comparison...

    Fz6 4 piston caliper upgrade from 2 piston caliper

    You probably have the FZ6 non S2, in europe you have the basic and S2 FZ6. The basic uses the same fork as the pre '07 FZ6. I've don't a lot of research on this issue, cause I really needed 4pots. And because I already spend a LOT on the Andreani cartridge kit, I was "forced" to keep the...

    How would you define a "good" rider?

    @ track = their average lap times ... the only real pointer how "good" somebody is. @ the road = overal riding skills, the complete package.
