...ops...

I've been Rijeka monday:

- new front fork pre-loaders
- new pegs (with no blobs)
- new tyres, Dunlop D208 RR

Well, front fork is ok now, pegs too, new tyres works soooo good, knee-sliders can tell the same finally :lick:
But the wind made the track dusty and slippery,so the 4th time in ....... $%3un :xm

I'm ok, suite not so(and bike too), but it's his job!

Anyone out here has a spare nose cone? :violin:

Damn Gus !!!
See, that will teach you to make me jealous my friend !!

I know you have only just bought the Dunplop tyres, but I would urge you to sell them to someone else ( who you do not like ! ) and put a pair of Avon Vipers on her ..

You do a lot of track days, and the Avons will work soooooo much better for you!

I am glad to hear you are ok , but it is a damned shame about the bike...

I know there is very little bike stuff on www.ebay.it but look on http://www.ebay.de as there is very often lots of good panels on there and you may get a cheap nose cone :p !

oh yeah!

as you can see...right fairing, nose cone, windscreen, tank, brakes-oil tank,and you can't see "the under-saddle"(plate is move 2 inches left) and the "under nose-cone"(light is rotate 15 degrees..) then the right mirror, front fenda, right peg,right can.....and i slide on left...eheheh...

I can repair everything, even i have a secon fuel tank, 2 right fairings....right mirror...remember, i've a spare BB :rolleyes:

So John, in a not so long time i'll order mushrooms..eheheheh...
then I know your thoughts about Dunlop, but here they are a very good tyre, and talking today with a friend which goes twice a month to Rijeka(500 class ride there until 1990, 1 year before the war into the ex-Yugoslavia) i explain him all....very windy day.... :bang: he told me I pay my "beginner", cause that track is super on dry surface, very very good when wet, but you don't have to go outside the trajectory when the wind blows strong, because nearby the track there are two "quarries", and the powder with strong wind comes on the track, and where dusty, you ride as on the ice....that's why i touched down :xm

I have now spare things, so I've not too many money to spend...but the next time??...I'm really looking for a 600cc only for the track! :-:

This w.e i'll work, but if i can i'll post "My Naked BB pics" :}

OI John, that's not nice, I like Dunlops 208RR's (so does the Ace :k ), but Italy is a long way to go to collect 'em!

Sometimes I'm in trouble with translation, maybe my english is not so good...or not so bad, as u like :p

Often I try to understand what people into english or american or slang meant, ....but it's not so easy R#? (now i think about "wtf" meanings, but don't want ask ;)

I want only share with u all my tears for my BB :-:

...please, for donations write me a private message

:h :B :beer:

Your BB may be dented Gus...... but not your sense of humour! :}

Hope you repair your bike soon with your spare parts. Good luck. The dust is a problem, - any other track near you?

WTF = What The Fuck!

YESSSSSS!!!!!

Hi guys,
finally i've find out how to replace my nose-cone when i go track-days. The original one is 832 euro here in italy( mine can be repair)....very expensive if need to replace....so i phoned...phoned...and phoned, and finally found what I'm looking for! w;;v

Nose-cone, right and left fairing at low price just 70km away me! :lick:

They are ONLY for track use(no holes for lights or mirrors or frame bolts)

...I know i'll have a new BB OEM fairing colours....Orange,blue and spots (Rossi)yellow as my suite is.

I'll show some pics when job will be done.
