If it's going to be a 5yr bike then yeah not so much of an issue. And I'm sure if you string it along for a bit you could get it for $11k even hey. What colour? I'm very envious!

Ha, bitten by the triple bug. Such an awesome machine! I'd be tempted to steer away from it. If the budget is an issue, definitely worth looking at a non-R version. Sure you lose adjustability, but the suspension is set really well for street use from the factory. In fact the R is a tad on the...

The Power Commander doesn't eliminate shut-off with their usual maps. I'm wondering though where all figures are zero on their map (ie around idle and zero TPS) if you just changed them to 'one', would this keep the injectors open?

Ah that makes sense then. Yes I took it as being the direction it goes once Bob hops in. Thanks for that.

Can someone run me through this please, as I'm confused. I thought the higher up he was, the less chance it would be going up. So thought he'd be on the 9th floor, not 27th. Couldn't play this round but curious to learn more about the math. Cheers.

Geez, only thought you could get larger cams, not smaller. Nice one. Who's going to take the grenade and try one!? They're not cheap though.....

I've also got the Berik GPX WP boots and find them excellent in heavy rain, and also not too hot. For breathability you'll have to go goretex (and definitely over $200).

And you never know, could turn into a full time gig for Yoshi. That's how David Coulthard got into his ride in F1.....

Perks of work, managed to return my 365s to the supplier as they just didn't cut it in the cold. Awesome gloves otherwise and really wanted to like them, but really just a 3-season glove. I went with a Rev'it GT H20 glove instead, and these are absolutely superb. Wrote a review on our site if...

Where do you work?

Just jokes mate, hence the smiley face.

This kind of environment is not wallet-friendly :) BTW if anyone wants some hi-tech computer stands like mine, I'll post a thread up on how to build your own :D

Carby conversion :D

That's the idea, but I've personally never tried, I reckon it would be a bit of an effort unless you had a flip-up style helmet. I can wait until the next fuel stop or whatever it is for a drink.

Even better, the Yamaha Hydro Pack. Racing hump style :)

Like the pipes themselves, after time and a few heat cycles they will bed in. Best bet is to take some vice grips and lock them on, then wiggle around until it un-sticks. Once past the sticking point they should slip out easily. Don't be afraid to shake aggressively.

I disagree. IMO the less torque a bike has, the smoother it should be on throttle exiting a turn. You get a bike with gobs of torque and it will theoretically hit you with more ponies at a given throttle position. I would have thought it's related to the fuel injection system.

Haha no worries. It's without doubt the cheapest place in Oz to buy them. As staff, I couldn't even get them for that price here!

Wash your mouth out Kaz :eek:

In all seriousness, this stuff is not designed to soften hard/old tyres. It's designed to add a layer to the tyre and perhaps penetrate the very outer epidermis of the tyre, and will last all of a few miles. It's for serious racers to give them a competitive edge. Other than grip, a harder tyre...
