So last night I was on my bike and I was coming into mitchell from gunghalin along flemington road, and a guy exiting mitchell to turn onto flemington has just gone it, with speed and didnt even look. I was only doing about 30-40 as I was nearly into the corner, I swerved missed the car but went up the gutter got thrown from the bike and damaged the bike, not badly but it didnt have a busted headlight before did it??? THe guy goes up the road stops after about 100m, I think he didnt even realise but then yells out "you okay?" I say yeah and he takes off!!! Bastard If anyone sees a older guy, looks true bogan in a burgandy el-ef falcon wagon with the plates YAD 3 something give him hell. Geez I cant believe there are people like this in the world , gets me so cut, I am alright but its not the point it could have been 10 times worse really easily!!! End Rant!!!

Must be something to do with the badass colour 'black' that we both have----good luck.

CBR250's are awesome, ive just bought a new race prepped one for the 250 series in Vic

anyone wanna buy an 01 R6 trackie for $5500?

awesome??? uumm, maybe with an overbored 400cc engine it it. but 250's are too limp imo.

dude, any bike that can be power wheelied from first into 4th and scrape gear selectors is good IMO, they are awesome for the track

and theres video proof of 4th gear wheelies (but he only kept it up for a second)

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again.

      Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.

      Slight brake pedal stutter after new pads

      Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!

      Could you put a real seat and harness in instead of what looks like leaving your passenger balancing on a milk crate
