will do mate

[matt232]

Still looks like theres some life left in Melbourne town.

G'day to the rest of Australia and adopted Aussies as well.


I've been off a bike for a couple of years due to an unfortunate Wallaby incident. In fact, I was pulled up as part of the bike crackdown which was mentioned at the start of this thread, no fine, but it was a pain being pulled over when you are heading to a important exam. Just to give you guys an idea of how long ago I had my last riding fix.

Hows the riding these days? Anything regularly organised?

[ratter]

sometimes things get organised but nobody (read Will) ever turns up

[Will]

(cough, cough)
I'm there, in spirit

Welcome
Hmmm baby blade to a 1000 blade, yeah that couldn't possibly go pear shaped

Well bitches (ratter) before I sell my darling how about we organise something say in the rideout forum

Matt 232 interested in a 29 to get the skills back?

Oh and heres one for everyone.
If you had a woman like Ratters would you sit at home post whoring or would you spend your time taking care of "domestic duties"?
It just don't make sense

[brennyP]

Well..listen all...shut up!!! bloody shut up..good now you better damn well listen ..

MY BLADE STOCK GOT 135.2 RWHP TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and im so very happy
now you say its a **** dyno.. well i say two mates came with me and got between 4-10 horse power down on scores they got on other dynos

SO THE NEXT TIME WE MEET DRINKS ARE ON ME!!!!!!!!!!


MAX POWER 135.2hp @12150 RPM
MAX TORQUE 65.1 lb-ft @9464 RPM

[Jungleboy]

Geeze better get my bike dynoed soon seems like im letting the team down!

[matt232]

Will,

I've got confidence in my abilities and being able to pickup stuff I'm missing, which is tempered by a nigling doubt that I will likely drop my beautiful bike any and every second after I role out of Peter Steven's door. So until I'm sure that I've successfully made the jump everything is going to be keep in check. What are you looking to get to replace your 929 with other than a woman?

If you can hang onto your bike for a month or so, when my Fireblade boat comes in , I will be at the ride with bells on.

While the offer of the 929 is generous but my poor bank balance could never handle the purchase, it is screaming in agony as it is, with the pending hit of CBR1000.

Why do you think that the post whoring and are mutually exclusive? I would suggest that in fact the Post Whoring may in fact be the prelude to the and ratter's partner is far luckier than we think? 2,867 posts no wonder ratter looks so fit.......

Ratter, fret not, once I've got my wheels there is little chance that I'm going to want to get off them, especially during the honeymoon period! So you will have a stand in for anyone who is consistantly absent on the organised rides.

[brennyP]

Had any calls yet Will? yeah my mate will probably not be ready to buy for a few months..but yeah i have two mates that will be on 929's before the years out

Hey what are some of the stock dyno resaults you guys got on the 954?? i know you have 149RWHP now Ratter what was that up from?? your blade would kill stock GSXR's now yeah

[brennyP]

matt232
will be good to see you on some rides soon when you get your 1K beast

[brennyP]

anyone see the news?? bikecops on unmarked motorbikes with camras getting riders on the Reeften spur and yarravally roads.....hmmmmm why cant they go get some real bad guys and leave us the faaaark alone

im heading out the shed to hook up some 007 oil shooter from the back of the blade

[brennyP]

Got a question?? Dynos can only test Rear Wheel Horse Power right?? and you lose about 10-15 percent of your power from the engine to the wheel right?? so my blade dynoing 135.2 at the wheel would have about 148 HP at the engine??

ill post my Dyno run soon when i get it scanned...it has a very nice power curve

Sounds pretty much correct, I think honda advertised something like 150-150 hp which would be at the crank so if you took away 10-15% your bike is on the mark.

It just don't make sense

Who says I'm not doing both at once

[brennyP]

cheers ratter

[matt232]

Well if something was organised for something close to the city I would turn up. But as I live in Bum**** Idaho, it's a bit hard to get out for a ride.

What's wrong with that??? I went from a Babyblade to an R1 for about a month and then to the 929. Nothing but fun for me.

But when you consider the power to weight, with you compared to Will, it is a big jump for a flyweight

Absolutely, Its going to be masses of fun but I think the difference between your transition is that you were still riding a bike (two year break for me) and your babyblade was in one piece when you got rid of it......

Well I'm off to the Motorshow this arvo to check out my bike ( ) in person (assuming its there) and check out the Aussie alarm system I'm looking at getting. BikeBandit

I thought Idaho was in the U.S.? Is that an Aussie phrase that picks Idaho, U.S. as a to hell and gone place??

Just an aussie phrase for something that is miles away from where you are at present, most people use the term bum****edeqypt

Anyone going to wade in on the BikeBandit alarm system I meantioned.....

Also I didn't get a chance to visit the Motorshow So I'm still in the dark as to whether the CBR1000R is there. Perhaps something for monday night.
