    Bursig stands

    Does the lug stand proud of the frame Sam? Doesn't look like there's much floor clearance, just enough to make it moveable? Bursig is higher

    Bursig stands

    I still keep my Gen 2 on a Bursig and it's great for storage or moving around the garage. It can't raise the bike high enough to be that useful for working on the bike. I bought a iJac for my S1000R and found that the thinner girth of the bike meant that the lug stuck out the frame and annoyed...

    Adjustable swing arm pivot.

    He told me that HM Racing have shifted away from road bike support to focus only on racing, giving him less to do, hence the move. He still does stuff for them and when he was working on my bike he actually called them at Knockhill BSB to check some details (possibly the best wheelbase for...

    Servicing

    Service took about 90 mins, which is exactly what he said it would. He'd also taken pics of the coolant leak to show me the issue.

    Servicing

    My annual service was 186 (oil only, not brake fluid), not sure how much cheaper that is. He also reckons that my coolant pump needs changed and that's going to be 340. Is that much cheaper? The owner seems to be well regarded and only uses bmw parts. Tbh I only mentioned them cos they...

    Servicing

    Also a bit of a trek but this place is ex-Motorrad staff. I got my Gen 2 serviced there couple of weeks ago at very short notice and it's right beside a bakery you can sit in whilst they do it, as long as you specifically book a waiting service. It's just up from Junction 9 of the M25 so should...

    Adjustable swing arm pivot.

    I had my Gen 4 set up by the famous Perry ex HM, he said I should lengthen the wheelbase 10mm for big changes in stability... not really got used to the bike yet, might think about it later

    How do racing teams work?

    I see that Max has announced the team will be dissolved at the end of the season. To Wull's point, I'm starting to get confused who said what about who :-) so... It has already been widely reported that it was Camberau, now ex-McPhee crew chief - who beat up TB-A, and Alex's vid matches Wull's...

    How do racing teams work?

    typed that in haste - corrected below Nobody said he stood in front of Fernandez's bike, but there is a suggestion above that he commanded it. As for our bearded friend above he is already gone - he only stayed on for two races because of visa arrangements for the flyaways, he will not be at...

    How do racing teams work?

    Everything you said makes sense Jamie, and clearly McPhee did not trust what the crew chief was saying to him, hence the results. Equally I'm sure no rider is happy unless he has a full works package underneath him and not every team can afford even half of that. It does seem that the guy (we're...

    How do racing teams work?

    Forgot to mention the other bizarre thing - when McPhee got off the bike he embraced that f***wit before going to his girlfriend... The BT people know more than they are allowed to say, whether that's BT looking after their contract or everyone scared of being done for defamation I dunno. As...

    How do racing teams work?

    I hope I am not spoiling anyone's watching of the Moto3 race at the weekend, it was really nice to see the winner celebrate after a terrible year. There were some statements made in the BT Sport coverage that have made me wonder what's going on. I know we won't know the full truth of things but...
