Yep, sorry my mistake

I have a 190/50 on my 2003 ZX6R. That hasn't caused me any problems at all. I think the difference between the 190/50 & 190/55 equates to about 95mm difference in sidewall.

I took one for a test ride a few years back, one of the Harley dealers down here had a come & test day so I was keen to give it a go.

As mentioned above, it does pulse a fair bit at idle, causing the indicators & mirrors to shake like mad :D also the cylinder head is right between your legs, so it ...

If you look closely at the pic, it's teaming down in bucket loads. I am with Gos, there has been a few times over the years where I have had to pull up. Not because I was getting wet though, because you couldn't see and that there were rivers of water flooding across the road making it near ...

How does your chain & rear sprocket look? Just bare in mind that this may need to change also, which I assume the cost would be in addition to that of the major service.

I went & had valve clearances & vacuum synchronisation done the other week at Evolution, Cost me about $200 for that, although the valve clearnaces were right & no shims had to be changed. I done the rest of the major service myself to save money. An apporximate price i got for the major service was ...

Great show... will definitely be missed at my place

The InterWetten girls have to be the best ones in the paddock by far. Almost convinces me to follow the team

I got back from Phillip Island yesterday. We rode up on Thursday, which worked out to be the best day to ride up.

Friday was by far the worst day that I have had down there. Spent close to 80% of the day in the expo tent! Certainly didn't help that FP1 was delayed. Watched the MotoGP FP1 at MG ...

I have used Bumper Care from Autoglym in the past on very badly faded plastic. I used to own a Peugeot 205 GTi & the plastic on the bumpers & wheel arches were pretty bad. This stuff used to do a top job & lasted for quite some time also.

I agree, I am hoping to get my hands on one ASAP

Here is my ZX6R. I picked it up a few weeks ago now. I have to say, I absolutely love it. The only modifications to it are the Micron slip on muffler & foot pegs. I was thinking about getting a few things for it such as fender eliminator, crash knobs & possibly even integrated rear indicators ...
