  1. It was stock gearing with a half worn 55 tyre, when I finish the house off I'll have another go at it
  2. MB Yes, also obtained, thank you! Makes for some interesting reading, I wonder if one day they'll print these things in colour
  3. But Mika, it's good for ya
  4. I watched this yesterday, what an impressive car the Tesla is! I saw another video posted on this site where a bike was drag racing a different Tesla (bike won) but you could see the Tesla on the start line getting close to wheeling! I thought the gen3 had launch control, which presumably would take care of the wheelie, or is that only for the duration of 1st gear? How many of us have beat the Tesla's time ?
  5. Nice one mak, best thing about CW's used to be the cafe (not been to the new one) Were there any goodies in the tank bag
  6. I guess this is eactly why we now have sensors that measure all sorts, because we like talking about it and comparing riding styles etc. Also it does allow us to prove whether the chicken strips are because you're a chicken or if indeed that particular tyre profile you claim cannot be used to the edge . I guess launch control is going to be rarely used, but possibly useful at elvington
  7. Absolutely! If the gen 3 had a 1441, I'd have been straight on the phone to John to upgrade it to 1450 or something
  8. Yeah, perhaps they've adopted the microsoft philosophy, every other version is rubbish
  9. That's how you do it John, crush his spirit and then put your quote in
  10. How can it be worse on fuel and more economic at the same time
  11. How come you no longer have a website? I'm currently researching the top speed events as somebody or bodys seem to have nominated me for a go In other news I quite like the new bike, not 100% on all of it yet but yet to see one in real life. I'd quite like the dash and all the extra electronics on my bike if that's possible But if the Gen 3 is bigger than 1407 I may have to revist a shop up in Yorkshire
  12. If you do, I hope it works better than the URL at the bottom of your posts
  13. Rumour has it he's bought 2 already , one is on the way to Johns shop for some upgrades
  14. https://www.dictionary.com/e/slang/og/ Quite a long read as there is a bit of history to the phrase, but it is now used quite widely to" praise someone or something that is considered authentic and excellent, often in an admirably old-school or classic way". In other words somebody that was there in the beginning and knows of the beaky legend. I assume, but am not certain without having recently seen a photo, but is the mothership a beak?
