    Going Racing - Advice Please

    This guy does a lot of Endurance racing with NLR. I am sure he talks costs? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puoMB659Wf0 I also think NLR offer a payment plan for race entries as well.

    I didn't stray far

    ?1500 seems a good deal for a refresh and peace of mind. I know i would rather have that, than an engine grenading itself at full chat. Pretty sure BMW recommend 4500 track miles. Alpha Racing race engines are 5000km refreshes.

    I didn't stray far

    John and Anita are really top, they pulled the stops out to get the bike sorted before Italy. At your height i can see why you would struggle with the RSV. The newer bikes are a tad roomer than the older bikes. Wider bars, longer seat and lower tank. But is still designed for a 5'8" italian! I'm...

    I didn't stray far

    I realised I never posted the 2nd RR's replacement. So the 2nd Gen 4 didn't last long, leaking brakes in 70 miles then a knocking with the fork. After a 1000 miles the RR went and i thought it was time to look at something else. A 2021 RSV4 Factory came up at a very reasonable price privately...

    Race Pro settings fJerez circuit Euro track day & Michelin Power cup 2 with warmers

    Re: Race Pro settings fJerez circuit Euro track day & Michelin Power cup 2 with warme I did 3 days at Mugello in September on the Power Cup 2. The tyres seem very sensitive to air pressures I found. To get them bang on i found i had to check them each session as soon as i came in. On warmers...

    Insurance renewable

    I am with Bemoto, i did pay ?400 for the last RR Sport 6 Years no claims (licence length) for a rider in his early 40s. The RSV4 is considerably more at ?550.

The bike is coming and is road registered and platted i am sure you do not need one for a road legal bike. However i will be taking my "Track...

    Brands Hatch GP 06/06/22

    Once Brands finally dried it turned out to be a great day. I just apologise to everyone that I am not on brand anymore haha. But i will still hang about if that is ok. Who's at Silverstone in July?

    Brands Hatch GP 06/06/22

    Oh those amazing fork killing clip-ons. Still can't get my head around why BMW thought that design was a good idea. Regarding Brands, still going even if it rains...rather be at a wet track, looking at my bike and chatting nonsense than working! Even if i get one dry session i am happy.

    Race 1,2,3 - What suspension settings you running ?

    I am 80KG without gear. When i had mine setup the pre-load was wound off both front and rear (Perry at HM racing set it up). If i recall the stock settings on the RR are all set at 7-7-7. Go from there to see how you get on, but as everyone has pretty much said the pre-load is the first place to...

    Gen 4 parts for sale

    I stuck them on Ebay for more but no real interest. The flapper delete kit removes the air intake flaps on the intake tube (they are act as a sound baffle). Apparently those also help keep lots of warm air when closed below 6k. Tbh most road or average track bikes probably don't need the kit...
