We changed the bars on the young bloke's Ninja 650RL today.

I switched my GSXR back to clipons today and he wanted to try wider bars, so we fitted the fighter bars I'd just taken off.

He loves 'em except for the view he gets of his elbows now from the mirrors.

We also ripped the tank and airbox off and derestricted it.

He's fully stoked with the extra power and torque it has now. I could tell just from hearing him test ride it round the block that it had woken right up.

He rode home and sent me a text saying he can't stop smiling :)

I also did a few jobs on the Rucky Strike GSXR because I'm entering it in a small local drag serious besides the ANDRA stuff the turbo bike will compete in.

Changed the bars to clip ons. Fitted the lowering link and dropped it on it's arse. Fitted a new quick release clutch cover because I'd borrowed one off the race bike and that had been clearanced for the Hays clutch. Dropped the forks through the trees and fitted a front strap.

Maybe tomorrow I'll have my first attempt at tuning the MTC lock up clutch so I can use the MSD two step limiter I fitted.

I also fitted the motor, turbo and waste gate etc to the race bike yesterday.

Plenty to do !

No wonder I haven't done any mods to the ute for 18 months!

Was a real good ride :)

Was spewing when Marquez came off (he's been stuck between fast and smart all season)

Could have made a good race for 1/2 and 3/4

Am tipping though - if Marquez was still up Rossi would have been a bit more aggressive earlier with Pedrosa.

Lorenzo's is pretty much untouchable - is going to be a good run home to the flag

We are leaving Sydney on Wednesday - staying at Lakes Entrance wed night Thurs (lunchtimeish?) we arrive at Cowes Monday we are leaving and staying at Gundagai on the way back.

Packed yet? Will be heading off Weds arvo (after work)

Did you look at joining the Sheene ride thursday morning?

Will be on the ZX14 with panniers - ZZR-14 numberplate - am sure you'd be able to find me out of the 1,000 odd bikes :P

Give us a buzz when you get to Cowes - 0418 544 763 - definitely up for a beer down the main street.
