Re: ZXR tyre pressures?

Try the fitment and pressure guide on http://www.dunloptyres.co.uk/bike/
States a '93 ZXR400 as 33psi front and 36psi rear. You should find the pressures will be the same for almost all manufacturers!

Re: Time For A New One?

How long your bikes gonna last is probably gonna depend more on how you ride it and maintain it!
At the end of the day it's your personal peace of mind........... BUT have you seen something else thats tempting you away.... sexy, new, young, lithe model??? :twisted: (or another bike he he he)

Re: My "repaired" gear lever not 56k friendly

Think you'll find pure alloy would be a little too soft for the sort of abuse a gear lever gets, and as castings go, the Jap stuff ain't too bad. Classic bodge though, and one I've had to resort to in the past. Always helps if you know any nice friendly engineers who can repair it for you!! :wink: H...

Re: Biker Down

Sad to hear another rider has been killed. :cry:

Deepest sympathy to his family.

Let's hope SOMEONE learns a lesson from his death and maybe learn to look out for us!

Re: Any Bike???

If money was no object.... Schwantz's '93 championship winning RGV500.... road registered of course.... to scare everyone (and myself) shitless :twisted: !!!!!!! PMSL Must say though that the MV F4 is probably the horniest bike on the planet! As for an everyday bike.... so far I can't think of much ...

Hi mate, Probably the best bike racing games currently on the pc are GP500 (quite an old game, but still probably the best for "realistic" handling) and Moto GP2. Play Moto GP2 alot online and is great fun. 8) If i remember rightly there is someone else on the site besides me and Dino Dan ...

Test rides

Hi all,

Been struggling to find somewhere that has a Suzuki GSXR 750 K4 demo available. Was wondering if anyone knows of any dealers with demo's, or any with any used minter's in Blue/White?

Looking to buy in next few weeks with any luck... (fingers crossed). to accompany my WN

Cheers,
Pete
