Re: Romano Fenati - WTF

He's thrown in the towel???? Being sacked by his current team, being dropped by next years team & having his race licence taken away........I'd class that as being thrown out of racing, only reason why he's thrown the towel in, it was the last thing he took out his locker and put in his bag :lol...

Re: Romano Fenati - WTF

I saw the clip on FB, it made me laugh....I do have a dark sense of humour!

Seriously, what the hell was going through his mind?!! I don't think he'll ever race again, certainly not in the big leagues, probably the most costly 3 seconds of his life :crazy:

Re: K-Tech 20SSK Fork Piston Kit

Thanks Wicky, I'll give Roger a call. Popkat, had Maxton 'sort' the forks on my S1, after sending them back twice I sold them on, f'ing hated them & Maxton weren't overly bothered with helping me sort them! Speaking with a few others, it appears Maxton have gone quite downhill in recent years. I...

K-Tech 20SSK Fork Piston Kit

Has anyone tried this kit? Have been thinking about what to do for my bike, I can't afford a complete front end swap (time more than money) Saw this on Brooks website and was curious if anyone had any experience with it. It is fitting only - they will not supply which adds a bit more - but that also...

Re: Firestorm brakes

I've fitted the CBR600F4I calipers and M/C, needed a little bit of meat taking off with my Dremmel to get the bottom bolt in (1mm approx.) They are a massive improvement over the Stom brakes. :thumbup:

Buying online

Wanted to order new pads on the weekend for the track bike, phone two local bike shops to see if they were in stock, both had them, both similarly priced at just under £60 a pair. Now I'm in no hurry for the pads so I looked on Sportsbikeshop.com and found same pads for £40 and change! :crazy: Now, ...
