Driving to a course (late couldn't stop!) I saw a B&S on the hard shoulder - no sign of the rider. Was Thursday morning (I think) about junction 18.

Numbs UK bike have Cat's too!

PS + VAT!!!

So Suzuki are going to charge us £143.63p for wishing to have a design fault corrected? There must be a lawyer reading this - this is a bloody insult.

If Kawasaki paid so much attention to aerodynamics why did they go and stick standard indicators on the fairing? (which disrupt airflow) as for the winglets, I thought they were a stability aid no more.

Opps hope I haven't upset pooh - only having a giggle - no harm meant! I'd have though I'd be an easy target for rebuff though!

Is your cush drive worn, split or put in the wrong way??

If you like belting down traffic then you won't like the Busa - not the best bike for town work in the world, not particularly good steering lock combined with the stodgy steering damper makes town busting a pain. Get something like a Second hand Yamaha ThunderCat and learn to ride on a medium...

Resister soldered across the turn signal wires? I'm sure someone with a basic understanding of Ohms law and an ohm meter could work out the resistance needed!

Must take ages for Numbs and Pooh to have an arguement! :) Seriously, well done I am gonna have a stab at sorting a few things on my Busa this weekend (kill box - brock mod) I'll have a look at the gubbins you mentioned under the tank while I'm at it. I ain't gonna bloody clean it though - so...

Hmmm, I wonder if there's any value in putting the oil return above the clutch basket to drip lubricate the clutch and thus make it less grabby as Busa clutches can run too dry. (they run above the oil.) Ensure the oil you use has good anti froth propeties! [This message has been edited by...

FS, Air resistance is squared against speed, 8% less drag at the kind of speeds we are talking about is worth a heck of a lot more than 8% more power.

Mine's probably not right as I have to run with at least a 1/3 of a tank of gas or it cuts out on full throttle. :( Been like that since new - it's had all the recalls etc.

Nah - it was the way he went past me on the straight at Snetterton that did it!

Do you guys actually have a motorcycle riding test before you are allowed to ride? In the UK you have to do compulsary basic training even before riding a moped. Then a theory test. Then a Bike test with an examiner following you. If you are under 21 you are restricted to under 33BHP for two...
