Also another thought, it may be that they think if your calling on the phone, your a timewaster, so why go to any effort? think about how many tyre kickers there are out there.

A good vid I watched recommended learning to power up before clutching up.

Clutching up was their preferred method but they reckon it's easier to learn the basics by powering it up.

Anyway, regardless of how you go about it, kids on the street love it when you do wheelies past them.

I heard a drill buzzing in the vicinity of where my bike is parked so went to check it out since I thought they'd finished work in that area.

If you're in Sydney and want a Anderson stand they got em on special for $150 at Sydney City Lane Cove, Aussie made (my personal preference when buying- especially over Chinese) comes with both forks for bobbins and L shapes for non bobbins.

Cost you $50 bucks more than group buy after the postage ...

After reading this thread in it's entirity, my conclusion is I'd like to become mates with Strika so while he was paying for petrol or something I could set his fork rebounds and compressions to maximum opposites on both sides and piss in his brake fluid.

The steel ones the same price?

I like the look of the red model the best, seems like it would have the most leverage.

I'd be in for one if a second group forms up.

Re: Bike Navigator

Anyone have a portable navigator on their rides?

I've only ever seen one bike with one fixed.

Work is offering to buy a Navman iCN 320 but not sure if this can be
attached, or is suitable for a motorbike

I've been looking at zx2rs lately and noticed the 'new' silver ones have a speedo that goes to 240 where older ones go to 180.
Could the new speedo have been added to take care of the 'wind back'?
