Thanks Kev, i'll see what he has to say.

Hey all,

Just a quick question to see what version of database server we are using on here. OzFirestorm group is looking at setting up our own site and will probably go with PHPBB, just not sure what SQL to use cause funds are limited.

Cheers,

remind me again how to do it?

Having not experienced one myself (touch wood) i think that stands as proof to many stories and annocdotes about how a high side will hurt more than any other crash you willl have.

All the best SILVTR!!!

I am but 24 and don't have any of the same concerns as you, so I don't see myself making a similar desicion for a while yet... come to think of it, I don't think i will ever be ballsy enough to be able to make that decision. Hats off to you!

Squirell, Have to agree about riding style. I am by no means "Mr Experience" when i come to riding, but i have had some lessons who would stack up in that test with the best in the world (Aus SuperBike School). Ideas about leaving the bike as it is when Honda give it to you cause Honda kno...

Squirrel, do I assume that you bought your VTR at Peter Stevens... perhaps Peter Stevens send their bikes out with better settings than what is Honda reccommended.

Use them as you normally would, and you will notice the benefits. It is all about the geometry of the bik...

Hi all, I need a new rear pretty badly. The only thing is that i don't need a new front. I want to get a Michellin Pilot Power for the rear, but am not sure of how things are going to go with the factory fitted Dunlop xxx (sport/road i think) on the front and a sport on the rear. Has anyone run this...

Just get one of each mate...

I don't think so DD. (i'll have to have a closer look tonight) but from memory i think the actual can starts right down the bottom beneath the foot pegs. The stainless you see in my piccie in my signature is all one peice i think.
