    M7rr's on track?

    I can vouch for S21s. Done 3 trackdays on mine so far and a bunch of road miles, loads of grip and plenty of life left. Granted they're not a full on track tyre but they have triple compound construction and I want a do it all tyre that won't square off in 600 miles of road riding, like the K3s do.

    In 25 yrs of riding they haven't fell out or broken yet, I think it'll be alright :tennis:

    Copper grease use.

    I use copaslip on the caliper bolts, torqued them up as per the manual figures. Never had a problem with over tightening or stripping threads before.

    I didn't think the gen 1 and 2 had launch control. My gen 2 definitely doesn't. The modes will changes if you shut the throttle on the move i.e. coasting

    All bus lanes in Bristol are open for use to bikes. Shame about the blanket 20mph limit though

    Caught doing 160mph onS1000RR.....(not me)

    I've been caught and banned for a not too dissimilar speed back in the noughties. I was absolutely bricking it when I went to court and ended up with a 6 month ban and small fine. Before that I used to play silly buggers on the road without thinking about it. After it was totally different. I...

    BT016s replaced with S21s

    Nothing but good things to say about the set I had fitted a while back. They've done 3 trackdays and fair few miles on the road and still have loads of life left in them. I'll be getting another set after these are finished

    2016 chain life - would this be a warranty claim????

    I have a Gen 2 model, only had to adjust the chain twice maybe 3 times in nearly 9000 miles. The finish isn't the best but the strength of it seems fine to me.

    If the 5-0 see that video your licence is toast and you'll probably end up inside. Nice wheelies though

    Oil and Filter Change

    As long as the oil is the same grade and has the same API rating then it doesn't matter who makes it

    Chain!

    525 would be 5/8" between chain pin centres, 2.5/8" between the insides of the chain plates (width). A 520 is a narrower chain (2/8") and would require you to change the sprockets to suit.

    Another Tyre Dilemma....

    I've got S21s on mine and they feel like a really decent tyre. Not been on track or out in the rain on them yet but no faults so far. They do seem to have quite a flexible sidewall as the ride seems plusher than on the old tyres. Will report back after Oulton at the end of June.
