Re: 3 Hour Endurance race at Calabogie?

Is it bad that I really can't remember seeing any Armco? LOL That's a good sign. You're getting older like the rest of us and the armco thing is another example of look where you want to go, not at the armco. The trackday thing is far more useful than people think, to commit the track flow to memor...

Re: 3 Hour Endurance race at Calabogie?

The three-hour format has been an interesting possibility for years. Endurance is different from sprints, ride smoothly and sensibly to finish. This Calabogie round is an end-of-season joyous celebration so let's relax and give a little, think positively. Three hours is nothing, grasshoppa. Enduranc...

Re: On board Norton at Mid-Ohio 2015

Doug that thing is pure awesome! You've done a nice job of editing that vid although maybe some of us could do with less bum shot and more track, old buddy. Actually think your Notrun would pass a typical sound check would it not? If time allows, please give some of us punters a little overview of w...

Re: VRRA support class for CSBK!

If it helps we calibrate our Db meters to Calabogies kit each season and theirs are very reasonable FWIW. Anyone riding at DOCC Mosport 23, 24 May we can do sound checks if it helps. Most aftermarket or supersport silencers pass if the silencer isn't bombed. This is a primo track with superb surface...

Re: P4-F3 St Eustache final

Loved the squeaking rotors – eeeet, and the sunshine too. That a GoPro mounted on fairing or other type? Trans. undercut and perfectly shimmed or what, sounds like a quick-shifter! The bike is admirably quiet, too. Fine riding and looks like a civil and safe group to ride with. Thanks for sharing th...

Re: 2014 Vintage Festival P3 Heavy Final

Todd, I enjoyed the heck out of that vid, particularly Dave Peters riding that lovely Honda and your back and forth lap by lap trade off. Good for the young 'uns to see such an exemplary job of sharing. You two rode that race extremely well and I thank you for posting that here. Curbing? nope if it ...

Re: P1 250 Project

Rick has the best interests of the Samurai in mind, it really does need to enjoy a 2nd childhood as a P1 racer. Born to be wild or at least green. Certainly needs a proper exhaust and less tinwork.

Re: 1989 GSXR750

Jim,

Would you sell the spare calipers (if they seem OK) and spare
clipons?

BTW, what does a Gixxer like yours weigh – ballpark?


Thanks,

Heck no, it's a gift that keeps on giving plus any mention of Castrol R is sublime and timeless!

Re: Racing the Norton at Mosport & Mid-Ohio

Top stuff Doug!

GoPro or other camera(s)?

Re: 1993 YZF750sp Ex-Linnley Clark Superbike

Could you guess at weight please?

Are there lots of hours on those Ti rods?

Suspension serviced post-race since back in the day?

Is a side view possible?

With thanks,
