Cant get in contact with him & his web site is down
not answering emails from a week ago either.......

Firey just dropped his bike off there

Maybe on holiday for superbikes?

Rob, Just saw him... web issues at the moment causing dramas with email.

Said he'll try respond this evening

Yeah, web issues. Like the Internet doesn't work out in Wattieland where he's probably out testing Fireys bike

Onya Firey! One for the team!

Thanks Guys

Yep Fled, dont worry to much Firey he is insured

Web page can sometimes go down - not sure why, as I am not that internet minded...

Email works, but I let slip that email from the 22nd of last month; sometimes I miss the odd one.

Firey's bike has not done that many laps as it goes - haven't even ridden it on the mundane commute home - it has had some fork work which has calmed down the acceleration "shakes", as well as this I have run a certain geezer here's shock in it with a spring to suit me so as to check its response and I have also played about some with the stock shock's settings.

Time is the killer ATM as there is a lot going on all at once and them painted wooden horses just keep going around and around to the music and won't take a break!

To go back to the 6R a minute, fascinating little chassis and even has shades of the B1 in there in some regards. I quite like it...

How come I always cringe at the prospect of team thrash the members 6's get wind of a potential upgrade to my bikes?

Oh and Rob leave Jim alone he's busy

Hey I put my order in well before you I am well within my rights to pester Jim & be one of those nuisance clients that fall in the PIA category

Somehow I have managed to completely cap my 200Gig bandwidth until tomorrow, so no Yahoo access (coz it chews); but KSRC works (!) somehow...

I think I have what I need to know about the 6R now, from now on it is just a matter of tailoring the results up n down 5-15% with little digressive or progressive/accumulating traits built in for each individual's preferences - ironically the numbers ended up with are not actually a million miles from where I was last year without having even ridden the bike!

A very productive morning (something must be wrong): one Gixxer fork, a remake of the Hafey shock and 10 minutes spent looking for the "nut" (in the sw-arm of course!); then a test-ride until the burgundy disco car stopped the "happy laps" (just joking Firey). Anyhow, Russ, you are good to go as soon as I spend the 7 minutes swapping out the shock - but thought to mention this in case the Firey one wants to swing by this arvo and try "it" as it is for a taster (hey, he may not like it right) - but his bike after all.

I don't really consider this a shock worth going up Peat's Ridge or Wollombi on, so the road going version will have to be closer to OEM - but let me know and I'll save the ripping out and altering stuff until tomorrow if necessary... (don't forget, no email 'til tomozz, due to no connection speed!)

If your still around I can be there by 6

Yup, will be here until 7, so see u @ 6..
