Off-Road Courses

Hi All!

I've started looking into doing an off-road course and wondered if anyone on SWB has been on one??
If so, would you recommend it?

Cheers!

Re: GSX1100 Custom Build

Cheers for the input as always Moose! Is that GSX your build then? Very Nice!!! :-bd The sub-frame supports don't offend me too much. I've got a few ideas on how to tidy it up, plus it gives me decent storage under the seat. Unfortunately my ninja fell over at the weekend ~x( (side stand sunk into t...

Re: GSX1100 Custom Build

Cheers Spug! Since getting the rear loop into position I have been working on the seat pan and a few ideas for the undertray. (I've recently made the undertray out of steel so will get some pics of that soon) http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g197/antonl/IMG_6658_zps6a1cfe9e.jpg My only concern is t...

Re: GSX1100 Custom Build

I reckon an old school flat seat would look cool on that, keeps the lines 'flat tracker' but gives two up seating. That's the plan badger, my partner is a saddler by trade so she is going to make me a custom seat :D I have made a bit more progress since the last post so will get some pics up shortly.

Re: GSX1100 Custom Build

Finally I have had some time to spend on the bike build.....If everyone could please stop getting married, having stag weekends and moving house I would be very grateful! :wink: I got the bike back home and let loose with an angle grinder. As you can see... quite a weight came off! http://i56.photob...

Re: LLandow 2014

Looks like you had an amazing day guys, weather looked good and the videos are making me very jealous, but...... looking forward to the August trip to Llandow (I know i'm still to pay Si! ;) )
I've never done a track day before so is the saying true......... Once you go track, you never go back!?!?

Re: Couple of Beauties!!

BIG shame about the cover! Looks like a bladder! Found out today, that model of Bimota was made for a race series, so are pretty rare in numbers. You can see the quick wheel release on the front forks. Apparently they're going for around £18k in good nick?! (Haven't looked into that claim) And that...

Couple of Beauties!!

So Poole bike night was pretty quiet last week but still some nice bikes around.... Favourite of the night was the Conquest Carbon Ducati Panigale 1199 Show Bike... :D http://i56.photobucket.com/albums/g197/antonl/IMG_6288_zpsfd7f1d57.jpg Then spotted this Bimota at the AWS bike garage yesterday.......
