I have a tire solution for the day (thanks Dave) so I will be there. Kinda related to that (as good as place as any to ask)..... last night when removing the old tire off my extra rims I noticed what looks to be a mark from a grinder on my front rim (previous owner of rims I suspect). It...

Hello, Got the set of tires with my track bike. I know previous owner used them at least once but don't know the usage before that. I have not used them and decided to stick to tires I know the history of (and like the Dunlops). They have a bunch of wear left in the wear holes but that may...

First off glad to hear the riders are OK including better news for the rider from turn 3. I helped load Dominguez's bike onto a trailer as I was passing by it as they were trying to manhandle it, Franklyn was limping pretty good but it was good to see rider up and about when you are looking at...

Pro6 told me not to use warmers on Q3s. I know some people have but Pro6 is the Dunlop tire rep so I assume they know. Jeff

I'd be OK with Technical since when I did it in June it was my shakedown ride on the ZX-6R and would like to try it without listening to every sound the bike made. That said I am not sure I will make the last Tues. Still 'discussing' with myself about tires, 'budget' and one more track day...

OP, need more details on what you are looking for. Muffler tube bender will not work if what you are looking for is tube bending for say a custom motorcycle frame. Also if you start to look around and see the pipe bender at somewhere like princess auto you need to understand it will kink tube...

Not my area really (I work on the BES team and the PRIV is the first BB phone I have carried in years as I am on the team that manages iOS and Android phones). That said, Blend is related to BB10 and 'the people' have spoken and BB10 didn't get the following required, so I imagine the EOL of...

Full disclosure - I work for BB but I am speaking my own opinion As I understand it BB offered a license but it was not taken so we decided to protect what we have created in the past. Apple sues even the likes of Samsung (and other smaller players) for their 'rectangle with round corners'...

Just called and signed up. Bike and shoulder seemed OK when tested on the weekend so we will give it a go. Jeff

Doctor cleared my shoulder and I have full motion of it, now I just need to get on a bike enough to see if riding position or pushing on bars makes it unhappy. Starting to rebuild rearset and clip-on tonight. New helmet should be arriving Friday. Then hope to take it to an empty parking lot...

98HP from an EX500?? there must not be much Kawi left in that EX then, how did he not get it to not blow up every race? When AND racing (http://thekneeslider.com/and-motorcycles-by-julian-farnam/) was using an EX500 in Cali they were ~65hp from the 526CC kit I think Jeff

Re: 27yr old Whitby man loses leg, has other partially amputated at Cayuga yesterday Yes, I noticed the drag strip on Tues had a separate EMS and it was for just 1 car doing tuning Quite the car too...

Wandered into ER in Markham closer to home just to get checked. Right thumb muscle has some tear or such in it so my right hand is 1.5 size of normal with swelling but not much to do there other than wait. The left shoulder was rather ****** off by the end of my drive home. X-rays show no...

Hello, At my first track day (GB June 14) with my 'new to me' bike I thought the brakes sucked, they got better with some heat in them but they were worse than when I bought the bike Nov 2015 and tried them up/down my road. All I had done between the 2 dates was a caliper rebuild (all new...

Hello, I am starting to think the same. I contacted the last owner and found out that he got the superbike pros with the bike and used them a couple of times (including a dump). I mounted them on rims then found out they predated the previous owner and left the Q3's on the bike. Jeff

Here is what I got back from Pro6: I was using 30/30 cold the 2 days I have on them so far.Jeff

Hello, I have read those and quite honestly John's (Bickle) opinion in those threads were in the back of my mind when a generator came available (since already had warmers). I also got the feeling from those threads that they were more focused on dedicated track tires so I question if my Q3s...

Hello, Thanks for the replies. I know I am asking a 'how long is a piece of string' type of question. I hesitated even creating the thread as there are several others about warmers and the like. But if you read those you get the idea that if you have warmers you should use them, even down in...

Plan on calling this week to sign up.

Hello, Background: did track days 99-02 and then stopped until this year. Back then used top tier street tires (on street bike), now have dedicated track bike. Just bought generator and now have means to use tire warmers. Bike is an ex raced 2000 ZX-6R. So far this year I have been running...
