Is there no more race fans out there?    I'm a mad fan of pure road racing my self and go over to Ireland to wach them.

Just a quick question, I have noticed that I have a "ranking" according to how many posts I have made
can someone tell me at what point I get promoted up the ladder?
so far I think I have the order sussed out is it:-
Cager in training
CBT Wobbler
Weekend Wobbler
DAS born again ( what is DAS?)
Club Racer
WSB Pack Hound
GP Hero

I know its just a bit of fun & I like the idea

Well today is Remembrance day , and I have just found out that an awful lot of busnisses are refusing the 2 minute silence 
I personal think that’s awful, one such company the employs have done a petition but it will make no difference.

So many people gave there life’s and now are given no respect.
Please take the time to remember our fallen whether it’s the First, Second World War or when ever
The links below are from my great great grandfather if you have a few minute please read the letter sent from his death bed in France

Hello ladies and gents, Az here. Ive owned my '98 fazer 600 since 2004, so I thought it about time that I start using/posting on the site! My bike has been off the road for a long while, partly due to restoring it, plus university etc etc. Although I've just got the bike back on the road, I'm actually heading off to India on a motorcycle trip later this month and may have to sell the fazer...

Anyway, thats me. I've really been finding the fzs600 forum pages a lot of help, especially carb related stuff and also info on clutch slip, so thanks to all that offered up the info. Hopefully i'll get some pics and details of the restoration up soon.

Looks like my jacket is beginning to absorb more water than it repells, has anyone had any joy with this stuff:
