Owen, you pimping my bike?
Am sure we could work something out!
Sounds like there's money to be made in hiring ZX10's out...
What sort of deposit would one's daughter require?

A bit more footage from Saturday Bears Eastern creek.
Oh I see the problem right there..... TOO MUCH BLOODY HORSEPOWER!!!!
I love hearing the scream of the RSV4 over the Beemer when I'm in front (2nd half of the vid). It's interesting that although the Ape is down on hp, it really gets it down to the ground nicely on corner exit.
Thanks for the vid!

FINALLY got around to encoding the only two races I did on the Saturday. Both are requests.... one for Sir Wetness, and the other for Mr Bagger, or as I like to call him, Steve McDoohan.
Firstly, the BEARS race 1, featuring our own stevem nearly highsiding the mighty Beemer on the exit of T1. Nice save, brother.

Ok, this one is for Wetty. Unlimited race 1, where he abruptly changes line into T2 and bashes into me.....

Thanks for that Nick, I remember thinking I can have these clowns next lap and then just got too greedy on the throttle. It was pretty violent 200 k tankslapper , it actually pushed the pads back off the disc's and just when I thought ok I didn't loose to much there I turned up at turn 2 with no front brakes. Straight off the track and rejoined in 10th.
Any sort of a wheelie cost you big time down the straight or I guess anywhere for that matter. Thanks again Nick.

That would be said lever guard. It was flapping loosely around for a bit, before parting ways with the bike.

It just loosened in the bar (it was a very solid hit!) enough that it could flap around, and then quickly came out. I deliberately fix them in very tight, but not rock-solid-never-gonna-move-in-an-impact fixed in position, as I'd rather it loosened in an impact than rip off a bodypart!
It worked perfectly - stopped the brake lever being either applied or ripped off (either of which would've potentially been disastrous), but still gave way-ish in the impact. Wetty's leg probably wouldn't agree with me though..... it was quite bruised and sore, I gather.
I popped a new one on before the next race
