Ken...I beg to differ. The Triumph didn't stall it just pulled away slowly. What was not in the video was the Starter (6 ft 2 in 'ish' male) was wearing a wig, french maids outfit and kept flashing his underpants and hairy chest. Some of us suggested that shaving his legs/chest would be...

GB SOAR Wknd; the organizers did a great job of running the weekend with the heavy dark clouds coming and going thought the whole weekend. After the rain Saturday afternoon and overnight, the track used a big "sucker' truck to pick up alot of the standing water on the track and in the pits...

One of the things you should do as practise is something you can do in your car. Get in the habit of doing all of your braking before you make the turn in your car. If you get in that habit, it will be easier when you do it on your bike. Most people in cars have their brakes on thru most of any...

Save some cookies for those of us arriving on Friday afternoon! I will have to break in a new motor Saturday morning so I should have time to stop and pick one up on my way by :-) parillaguy

Need to sell a race ready Super Single racer (perfect bike for the new SOAR Singles class by the way) before the deal on the 600 class racer can go through. Got a nice used Honda canopy at the end of last year and will only need a set of new rain tires and will be ready for May. Waiting now...

One difference not mentioned so far is that RACE use the AMB transponders for scoring. Figure on spending $400 to purchase your transponder for RACE. SOAR use a different system with 'no cost to the racer' RFID tags. Also your location makes a big difference. If you live west of Toronto the...

Jensen Trailers in Oshawa supported R.A.C.E. motorcycle racing at Shannonville for a number of years. So supporting businesses that support the sport is always good. While you are there you should put a bug in their ear about sponsoring a class in SOAR for next year! parillaguy

I'm 32....let me give you the scoop on marshalling. Anyone ahead of me gets a black flag. Anyone about to catch me (sadly there will be lots) gets a waved yellow flag. Seriously, just keep hydrated and avoid walking around with a yellow flag in your hand as it can seem like you are about to wave...

I know you would like a 'do it yourself' kind of answer but brake problems and unusual fork action together say more than minor service required. I suggest that you should take the bike to a shop or a knowledgable mechanic. No one can diagnose this kind of problem for you without seeing the bike...

Neither link appear to work.....:-(

How does one know if they have a free practise coming or need to pay for it? TX

I have used Bickle warmers for several years with 100% satisfaction. I did have been given a set of CAP-IT warmers from italy to use this year (sorry John...I am out of the cool aid line!). Bickle warmers are perfect for 90% of the riders who need warmers. The Cap-It warmers are Moto GP quality...

The carbs may not need to be drained if you use one of the fuel stabilizers in the tank and then run the bike long enough with the treated gas. This will fill the carbs with treated gas. Not quire as good as draining the carbs but alot less messy. As for draining carbs, most do not have a...
