    How far do you riders lean on stock tires?

    One thing to note with My Tracks, It would be unadvised to upload any datasets or mapping created for show & tell. As it plots how fast you are travelling, with times & dates etc. Great App, I used it a couple times on my moto & more so for cycling, running...just be cautious how you use the...

    Don't fart In Harrods A lady walks into Harrods. She looks around, spots a beautiful diamond bracelet and walks over to inspect it. As she bends over to look more closely, she unexpectedly farts. Very embarrassed, she looks around nervously to see if anyone noticed her little 'woops'...

    Had a fall, thinking of doing own repairs, need input please

    The only way to truely know, is to clean the gunk off, pull the damaged parts off and then inspect. With any luck only that bolt is damaged and not the casing. For safety (long term) it is better to replace the entire master cylinder -it is your front brakes afterall. +the price of the few...

    How far do you riders lean on stock tires?

    My first track day my R6 I thought/ felt I was leaning her over to the point of laying her down. I had a friend take photos of a couple laps. Looking at them afterwards, I was barely past 11:00 (clock face)!!!!! My point is human perception is extremely falable & very easy to sway. Ultimately...

    Fuel Guage

    Dont forget fuel sloshes around the tank, evaporates, recondenses etc All manner of things effect the fuel. But if you continue to have inconsistencies in fuel volumes, Check the lines, filter even the fuel intake inside the tank. Sent from my LT18i using Tapatalk 2

    How far do you riders lean on stock tires?

    Freddy pay attention next you pass through a closing/ tightened corner, or even apply greater acceleration on exit. To round a corner that reduces radii, countersteering is required to lean the bike further & tighten the exit whilst accelerating or else you will run wide. Countersteering...

    How far do you riders lean on stock tires?

    Find a track near you, which has professional riders to teach you. By the sounds of it you are 'muscling' the bike too much, relying on the front wheel to turn. That is fine at low speeds. When travelling above 60kmh (40mph?) you should be counter steering & shifting your weight. If you just...

    Fork Question

    Lower your tire pressures and you will have better grip, the side wall only moves a slight bit. By running with higher pressures actually reduces grip! Manual states 33psi Front and 36psi rear. If you want better, reliable grip lower that to 31psi Front/ 33psi Rear (ensure this is done at...

    The following is email correspondence between myself & my brothers, namely harassing my brother for purchasing a '14 VFR & not upgrading the whole way to a ZX-14, as he had been posturing. Just thought I would share some giggles __________________________________________...
