Diesels and Lawnmowers (Bike racing n things) / Re: Moto GP Ducati team
« on: 09 February 2013, 08:51:22 am »
Should Ducati just pack up and go home? oops, poor chaps


From MCN below


After the first test of 2013, Valentino Rossi is back on top pace, running in fourth place, while Andrea Dovizioso (who took his ride at Ducati) is in a lowly 13th place. Former teammate Nicky Hayden is top Ducati in 10th, while fellow American ben Spies is in the last of the full time GP machine riders, back in 17th place.
Has the time come for Ducati to admit that their current GP bike is a waste of their time and money, or do you think they're still making steady progress? Will an infusion of Audi cash mean that they can only go forward thsi year?
And poor Ben Spies, last in 17th fastest.

General / Speedo correction (16 tooth)
« on: 03 February 2013, 08:20:49 am »
So a couple of months ago i put a 16 tooth front sprocket on my FZ1s so i took a satnav on the tank pad to check out the speed correction.


I found the bike to be over reading as expected , the speedo read 44 to satnav 40    ,speedo 55 to satnav 50 and so on, so there is a 10% over read, easy to calculate when riding.


I got the speedo to read 142 and the satnav recorded 128 max speed of trip.(on a closed airfield of course) :\


On my Hilux pickup the sat nav reads slightly less than the speedo for cross reference,50 on the speedo and 48 on the sat nav so that 4% is my safety factor on riding at speed limits.


SO as written about the sprocket change making a 5.4% over read and the inbuilt 5% over read on the bike speedo i know where i am.


And as for the 16 tooth mod well, i takes away the need to change down to over take  ( in most cases anyway) and makes for a smoother ride.


I have recorder 130 miles on the milo and the fuel is flashing ,so have to check what is left in the tank as i want 150 miles to the tank or if not then the 17tooth is going back on.


Four of us are riding to Mugello end of May, going through Switzerland , my mates gsxr 750 needs to stop at 150 miles so should be ok.

I went out for 60 miles +4c ,never used the heated grips for a while as battery needed the power, too long as my fingies froze. :o


I have some good textile clothing for cold,goes ontop of my normal clothes so body is hot.


Never saw any bikes, went down the Wye valley,or up i suppose.

General / Re: Electric Shower Advice Anyone?
« on: 30 January 2013, 07:56:12 pm »
Yes ,something wrong there, you have connected an instant electric shower to the cold main so it should be fine,as written before,check vales are open,
no restrictors in inlet to shower.


Take the shower head off,are there enough holes in the head?run it without the head on,,any better?
