Bring on the run I can't wait.

I just knew that would bring a reply! Unlike another poster, no dangling of any sort of meat/veg was required.

Bring on the run......

EDIT: The man was a seriously fast AMA and GP rider. Head instructor for Freeddie Spencer rider school for 12 yrs. Might know a thing or two.

Very sound advice. Remember those new O ring spares for the clutch master......

I agree some of the cornering styles would have caused a great deal of mirth and were an annoyance to a certain HP2 rider!

By cornering style I assume you mean the bit where, apart from a few of the busa's at the front end, you all arrived at the corner at what ever speed,then proceded to park the bike in the middle of the corner, get your trainer wheels out and wheel the thing around the corner, hop back on, light the touch fuse, hang on for the ride along the straight to the next scary corner, crap yourself, get the trainer wheels out and repeat. I remember a certain lady on a Ducati 750 managing to embrass most of you by carrying a shit load more corner speed simply because she carried the same speed down the straight around the corner and so on, hardly touched the brakes, didn't gas it up, just gentle acceleration. preditable and smooth, that is why I was happy to ride with her all day,and we managed to pass most of you. She was never out of shape, never on the wrong side of the road.

Stands back and waits for the howls of indignation to start.
Come on bite, you won't be able to help yourself.

While you are of sharpening your replys try reading this, http://www.motorcyclistonline.com/flashb..._ienatsch/
Pretty much sums up my belief to riding on the road.

Tanya and i have just got back today from 2 days of Perth, Pemberton and back.
Rooboy, i had a altercation with a killa kookaburra that kissed my helmet on the Boya Brook road (almost as big as the one that tried to carry you away from the chalet that morning :-). ) Tanya said it was one of the funniest things she has seen.
I totaly agree Kiwi it is a much nicer ride doing a good steady pace than the boom bust on the tight roads.
Tanya and i wish we where coming with you all this week. Especially Bart and Gloria it would be good to see you on a Busa together :-)
Stay safe Guys and see you all on the next one.

And good old BMW fronted up and replaced the entire clutch master even though the bike was out of warranty.Just as well as a new Brembo master wouldn't be cheap.

Didn't we lose a busa in the first 10 minutes last time, saw a corner and hid under a power pole wire. Another went on the trailer when it layed down while braking through gravel. The lone Honda chewed a regulator, a Ducati snapped a chain on the way back to Kal, might have something to do with the amount of time spent pretending it was a unicycle. It was impressive to watch.
Correct me if dementia has clouded my memeory, didn't 2 BMW,s start and two finished under their own steam, 100% success rate, no trailers, no robbing one to mend the other.

The piss taking has started early this year, should be a great weekend.

Good point.

Hoohooharrharrrr! I'm really looking forward to this.

And.... true to form, my bearing shells have finally arrived. Just in time for a last minute mad rush to get the other engine ready in time for the run!

Gee Camel I couldn't think of a better way to run the beast in, what better run could you want, don't answer that one I could think of a few... but it's a start.

So the Banter has started just bare in mind fellers Lucky85 is just looking for someone to pass on those blinged up thongs that he obtained on the last run and I'm sure he's going to find someone to take on the Princess Award ..

Hey HP2 be careful what you say you use to say how big the Busa Looked well you'll be taking out that award this year mate no one will come close to that one ...

Ian you won't have to worry about getting lost mate HP2 is going to help you guys out with the Navman so if you got any concerns stick behind him and you'll be right..

As a former aviator I am never lost, just temporarily unsure of my current position (from time to time).

[Lucky 85]

Well the bikes been serviced and ready to go. Running the same tyres I had on the last run, pilot 3's. Good on you Dave stirring the shit early some great comments..and I hope this year there are no casualties. Can't wait to see you all.

Spent some time looking at some Camel creations; beats me how he shoe-horned that RR Merlin two stage supercharger into the frame. Shame the RAAFA Museum want it back after the run.

[Kiwi HP2]

Rev
the blinged up thongs are a life time award for lucky85.
Seems only fair as Michelle has to live with the trauma,flash backs and have ongoing counselling to deal with viewing the king of sausage. The look on her face when the penny dropped (or so she thought)and she had a second look was priceless.

Glen,
What shit stirring, just stating the facts.
You seem to have me confused with someone else.
I am the shy quiet one.

Have a safe trip down.
Dave

[Rev004]

Well Guys and Gals it's now getting very close now so better start getting yourself ready..

The Busa has just had another rear tyre put on yes another one and serviced so I'm just about ready, just one more go over of the bike a good clean and all set.

See everyone in less than 2 weeks. Will be sending an update out very soon.

Cheers Rev004

I'm hanging out for this and new tires will be going on a couple of days before the weekend. Unfortunately I have been out of the loop for a while thanks to planning the rebuild for the motor in the car, travelling far and wide to obtain another project, and now back at work for another 2 weeks. I was quite bummed to hear that Hayabusavich has piked on this as he was the one who pushed me to commit to this weekend but I'm sure all will be just as good anyway. At least I'm not going to be the one to miss out on a great weekend :)

[Rev004]

Hi Flanno there's still an off chance that Tony might make it I know he's trying to do everything to knock this job off and get back so I spose time will tell..

Let's hope he can work something out..

[Axe]

wow, 2 weeks and neither bike is ready yet.
opps.. time to pull a finger out.

Ha Ha , Same.
Replaced the clutch slave cylinder the other week and took the bus to the RAC track to get the feel of her again. Practiced the pace where everyone else was practicing to be Marquez that day but I made it around the track & home safely and have not fired her up since.

Two weeks to go hey!! Two years ago I thought I had all the time in the world.
