nice! some good suggestions will be sure to check them out.

keen for a lot of their food places actually, want to check out Dennys

ah yeh that's good you got a mate with a bike trailer how hard is track riding? been thinking about it for a bit but would suck if I came off and binned my new bike lol

do you use laptop for work? should get like a toughbook or something and claim it on tax?

if not you can replace keyboards in about 5 minutes depending on the laptop too

Track riding isn't 'hard'... you just go at your own pace anyway.. Probably wouldn't be doing it on a 20k bike unless you're loaded, but I guess if you're going slow enough the risk is pretty low...

Only use it for work at home, so not like its on site etc.. Due for a new one anyway..

Nismo indicators, should I go clear or smoked? Body colour is black, so I'm thinking clear, but I can't decide.

Definitely smoked. clear will look aids on black

smoked will give tuff look, clear will give clean look.

Yeah I was thinking same thing, probably better off buying a unregged 8 year old cbr1000 or something if I wanna get into it lol

Hows the experience compare to car track days?

So Red Bull Racing (and so Vettel etc) are (or were) at my Uni today.

Guess who was in a literature lecture...

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation.
