Sent a best offer for a silver 1. If its not accepted i'll probably just buy it anyway. Anybody had any belly pans and other things hydro dipped in carbon or is it best to just buy actual carbon.
Im worried that the dipped stuff would peel off at high speeds
 
It is lacquered on usually. Can't come off. Hydro-dipping is paper thin. A *proper* supplier, or watching youtube would confirm that.

I saw a nice pink 1 racing at the tt this year, not sure who it was but my painter refuses to paint it pink haha, we've settled for a deep purple.
Got it booked in end of november before she gets tucked away.
U seen the spooky ghost rr??
Something like that but dont want to copy someone elses too much.
Going to be keeping the bike for a long while so not bothered about the resale value it will affect.


Didnt know jimmymac was racing ;)

Oh, your back?

Managed to get my knee down on a trackday while you were away sunning yourself, but I've resisted signing up with VR46 though lol.

Anyway, how's your pink bits?

You need the centre spindle bearings from bmw , they are a pain to get out and you end up destroying them , your need to grind the axel blocks down because of the powder coat being so thick . Had my arm done black and my wheels white last year

Im back ! Pink bits ok , you can check later ;) Knee down ? Any witnesses ? Ducati track night on Thursday, spaces left , you can show me how it's done.
 
Plenty witnesses, haha. I was trying and failing to keep up with young Jordan on here, he's built like Frank Bruno and goes like Usain Bolt.
Unfortunately I'm overseeing pavements being laid on Thursday, yawn. Away to Silverstone at 5AM Friday so sorry can't make the Ducati night, in all honesty Dunc, tracks aren't for me with my limited attention span, was ok but didn't light any fires in me like the TT does, only going to MotoGP cause I fancy a night out on Friday and Rick Astley is singing Saturday night..........
Want to see you right slider after your night, mines is getting framed, lol.

Enjoy
