Are you friends with Jenny?

 

Shes a mate of a mates. Also the cop we know that attended the scene said his insides where no longer inside 

 

 

 

 

Nah, think I've met her before though through an ex

Yeah with no safety gear to hold it together the body is pretty fragile like that

But like the twit who stole mine, guessing he was doing speeds that even gear won't save you from

when I stacked the 33 the towie was telling me he was first on scene to that NYE motorbike crash in StKilda in the mid 00's

the guy came off at an estimated 160kph and hit a wooden telegraph pole, ripped him in half. apparently his hip bone was on the road

Don't tell me all these things.. I was wanting another road bike soon :P

Seems a lot of these accidents are caused by the rider though.. whether it be showing off or stupidity, inexperience etc. 

I'm sure there's still a good amount of deaths caused by car drivers too I guess. "Cagers" as we call them
I would never commute again to work on a bike, way too many close calls if heading to the city.

Saw that the other day.. insanely lucky i'd be buying some lotto tickets 

Would like to see what he was doing before the wobble, looks like a bit of inexperience to fall off a bike in a straight line.. I dunno maybe he had some weird gust of wind that caused the wobbles. Anyway lucky to be alive!

Never ridden one, I reckon they're a bit unsafe.

1. Low so cars less chance of seeing you in mirror, cant see over cars to look at traffic hazards ahead

2. Slow 125cc engine cant get out of bad situations 

3. Cheap shitty tyres and suspension components 

On the bright side, cheap rego and cheap on fuel

125cc? You might as well just buy a scooter.
But you don't look as cool...

Spending this weekend camping riding trail bikes (not powerful or loud ones) on private property. Will report back if I become addicted to bikes.

pro trail bike tip : stand up on pegs

the good thing about the groms is there's a lot of big bore kits you can get for them, and teaches you how to play with in-expensive simple engines

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
