15 tooth sprocker arrived this morning. Hopefully get it done at the weekend. In the meantime, I fitted a Sigma computer to the bike to give me a realistic speed measurement after I've changed the sprocket. A usefull wee formaula to have if you've fitted one and are trying to get the callibration co...

I only do that thing if I've been drinking. I've considered fitting a breathaliser to my PC to prevent just that! Why don't you just go the whole hog and get the carbon/kevlar bodywork to go with it?? http://web.tiscali.it/mario_nava/vtr1000_e.html And the engine covers ?? ( they're next on my shopp...

A scouser walked into the local job centre, marched straight up to the counter and said "Hi, I'm lookin' for a job." The man behind the counter paused, then replied "Your timing is amazing. We've just got a listing from a very wealthy man who wants a chauffeur/bodyguard for his nympho...

What I need to be able to do is the hairpin at knockhill without stalling it in 2nd or having to drop down to 1st!

So how is your storm on the track with that gearing?

I thought it was a 41 tooth rear?

What are the standard sprocket sizes for the Storm again??

I did try a search on the Yahoo e-mail group but the search facility seems to be pretty cr8p lately.

I had a loan of a GSXR600 earlier this year for a week and I'm still raving about it! It is a bit more work than the VTR but with that chasis it pays off. I know Aberdeen is a bit north for you but that same bike is for sale at the moment. 1998 S-Reg with less than 4k miles on it for £3500. I can v...

I currently have standard size front and rear sprockets front and rear. The question is, is it ok to keep the same length chain if I go down one tooth on the front sprocket??

MEZ3 Update - Got them fitted yesteday morning before heading down to Knockhill. They are fully scrubbed in and I'm happy with them. The bike takes a bit more effort to flick from side to side compared to the Bridgestones but they are very predictable and the bike no longer wants to sit up under bra...

The BBC coverage is so irregular I never know when it's on!!

I spent yesterday afternoon doing the Aprillia Superbike School at Knockhill and can thoroughly recommend the Aprillia from a riding point of view. It is such a nimble machine, excellent brakes and suspension. The engine revs a lot more than the VTR which takes some getting used to and there isn't q...

Hi there, It's an off the shel Forum called phpBB ( the link is at the very bottom of the page ). All you need is a server running PHP and one of the compatable databases. In this case our server is running MySQL. The forum is easy enough to set up. There is an installation script you can run once t...

That's good enough for me!!
