I'm with Mansoor

I'm too much of a nutbag to be trusted with the modern generation of hyperbikes

But I reckon I'll have to get a licence soon....and then kiss it goodbye the day I get the first decent bike :)

That's insane. I didn't realise that stuff happened!

It sure does. It's happened 3 other times where I wasn't 100% sure it was deliberate (50+ where it definitely wasn't deliberate) but on that occasion there was no doubt whatsoever. Full eye contact for about 7 or 8 seconds as I approached.

Also people often deliberately go really close to the car beside them as they see you lane splitting towards them. They can be stopped in traffic but see you so they creep forwards two metres and across one metre to block your way. They are all just jealous it seems.

For all of those though, there are heaps that will do the opposite to make room for you to pass. I always wave thanks.

haha thanks mate ill take that as a compliment, ive had a dirt bike for years so i know how to ride pretty well, and everyone ive spoken to says road bikes are eaiser to ride than dirt bikes (minus the cars)... but i go to work at non peak times, either early morning, or middle of the day.. so i kinda never have to face the road ragers stuck in traffic....

ill feel much better after purchasing all my gear, even myself didnt realise there was so much protection built into leathers and kevlar stitched pants! who woulda thought.......

I'll definately have a different attitude to riding on the road from driving... no big cage around me to protect from morons :)

That being said, up for a SAU bike meetup in a few weeks :(

Peak hour drivers are mostly used to bikes splitting around them and deal with it better than non peak hour people.

*WHEELBASE SSSSSSTTTTTTTTTTRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!111!1!!!!!11!!!!*

Yep, he was planning on riding to work today.. I think it is the first long rider since being back together.. looks hawt now, you should see the colour he painted it :D

:D its done now? i wanna seeee!

i got my Ls... but never bought a bike or had access to one to go past that stage!! oh wells! :ninja:

i would but i would push it in the wrong place and come a gutser.

i know so many people who have injured them selves family and friends.and one friend has hospitalised himself for months and killed the passenger his best mate.dude is looking at time.

good luck with it ed.

i sold my car and i only have my bike now.

saves me sooooooo much money.

i got a postie bike of steroids.... Honda CB250, not a CBR

its great, got a top speed of 110kmph, but it has no oil filter, no radiator and it gets 30km per litre. cheaper than public transport.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
