Hi and welcome. Before jetting my bike didn't like pulling from 2k but since jetting, it's strong as fook at 2k. Best thing you can do as a basic mod.

This is a real loss for moto gp, and not in the way that people always say whenever someone dies, but an actual loss. He always brought entertainment and a sense of theatre and drama to a race and it won't be the same without him :-(

I take it then that one of the biker cafe's that has upset someone has now had the autotype thingemy changed to the blue oyster? Lol

Is the 'iffy' build quality of the Suzukis really true? I have always liked the look of them, and the twin exhausts of the newer gixxers, but always had that crap build quality thought in the back of my head.

Im just up the road in Kingston and have garage and tools and stuff if you need a hand.

With regards to the RC8, remember the storm got slated when it came out too. Go test ride one. Dealers will still have new old stock.

That is bloody good news but I think it's feckin disgusting that you have to pay to get it back. The cost should be offset till they find the dirty pikey b8stard that took it then get it off them, even if its £1 per week for the next three years!
