If you have to run Pirelli, that's what I'd be doing. Won't last very long, but the grip will be good!

[shippy__]

so arrrrhhh

I just called Jan and entered in 600 and 600clubys on both days, mega exited..... mega

I have had an afterthought though, do they allow 2 piece zipped up leathers ?

[chubb]

Yes they certainly do

[shippy__]

chubbs all over it faster than lighting

I had a look in your shed on Saturday, you didn't seem to be there but I found your bike

Definitely SC0 for the hotter weather. Nick have you tried the new compound 0? Much better durability than the previous.

Shippy, as far as I know if they are the proper full zippered 2 piece not just the small attaching zipper at the back then ok. If they are the latter, I wouldn't race in them anyway.

Not yet, and I'm actually quite keen to try them. I'm planning on doing ASBK in April, and they are now a Pirelli control tyre.....

Absolutely correct. 2 piece are fine, so long as they zip securely all the way around.

Cool. The last thing you want is your pants around your knees if you have a tumble. Happened to a previous missus of mine at t5. A lot of riders stopped to help her including travel marhsals. Going against what they were told at the mornings briefing

Excellent will see you there .

Dont forget your back protector with the 2 piece suit.

[shippy__]

do they let you just stick your GoPro to the tank with the supplied double sided, would love to mount it better but so much to do in so little time

[chubb]

Yeah you can run multiple go pros if you wanted..

I think Marshy mounts like 16 on his...

[Marshy]

It's a good idea to lockwire them or otherwise run some sort of lanyard. It's actually required now under the GCRs(?) or somewhere, but I'm not sure that St George enforce it yet. But having had a couple of cameras snap their mounts, I can vouch for the value of lanyards!!

[Mr.Ed]

Ok, now where exactly do you plan to sticking your head when you get to the straights? When I had that same bike my helmet would sit pretty much where your camera is! Same thing on the ZX6R... and I mount my camera on top of the triple (the mount is pretty much where the turning fork logo is on your triple) and it works a treat! Get to see everything ahead (provided you a clear screen) and even the tacho which I find quite helpful when reviewing my footage.

[Carl-52]

Stu23 has his Gopro mounted there as well, its a protected little place for it... He doesn't really get down on the tank though so it doesn't bother him.
If i mounted one there on mine it would be taking video of my brains or my nose or something... A visor POV shot!!! all i need is a HUD display

Yep! I always make a 'leash' for my with zipties!

case and point... check where my camera is pointing at on this pic! It banged like crazy for 3 laps there but the leash did it's thing though.

[JC]

Whos that guy in the picture again??

[Mr.Ed]

That's the elusive Ghost rider... but unlike his more famous counterpart, this one is more of a 'Ghost of Xmas past' sort of thing.

fuuuuck shark fin, I knew I was forgetting something

where am I going to get one of those for a r6 before the weekend

[chubb]

Mick Hone has woodcraft ones in stock and can express post so you can get it and fit it by Thursday.

Wetty has some generic ones in stock.

I don't know whether Marshy makes his own shark fin or not.

Don't you have a home made / Bunnings one too?

I use and strongly recommend the Woodcraft ones. Rock-solid, unlike the carbon fibre ones, which simply bend out of the way, which kinda defeats the purpose. I've gone right off anything cf except cosmetic items. It's not the ideal material for protection, with the possible exception of tank sliders (and only then because it's impractical to fit any other material there).

[chubb]

Woodcraft ones

Back up.. never know when you need em..

[Phat3R]

Wouldn't happen to have a photo of your home made one Chubb? So Shippy could copy if his purchase options don't pan out?

[chubb]

Home made one from Bunnings.

Tap screws and a cut out L bracket.

Passed scrutineering

[senator8]

You could also probably get a GB Racing one from the guy in Mosman

Is Megan Fox your GF and does your bike fight interstellar wars protecting humans from the bad guys?

[JC]

That's her nickname, bumblebee

I asked you not to call me that any more

[Saturnalian]

Shippy, Carl at Trackpro is really good with his postage.
I usually get my stuff express from him the next day.
Give him a call before you place an order online and make sure he's got the bits on hand etc.

02 9011 6130.

Cheers,

Jamie

[Tristan]

[shippy__]

will anyone be selling and fitting pirelli's?

[chubb]

I don't know if SW will be there.

Stewie is always good for a chat.

Otherwise whitey will be there but I don't think he sells Pirellis just Bridgestones

[Tristan]

He just does bridgestones I. The slicks

Hey mate
How's the bike after the ooooopppppss on T12?.

[Marshy]

I don't know if SW will be there.

Pretty sure he will be. Friday even, from what I heard. But that was second-hand, so might be worth checking.

[JC]

It's in his calendar from Friday till Sunday at EC for st George round

[Marshy]

Yep, just found it too JC

Yep my last few from him have been metzelers at St George meets. Planning on grabbing another rear off him Saturday.. If you flick him an email I'm sure he will put one aside just in case
