who lost there zxr 400 l last night 06.06.07 at burton waters lincs??? hope your ok dude! at least you where going slow but you could not of done it in worse a place. infront of a couple of hundred other riders. i bet your where so piss off. the bike didnt look to bad from where i was did notice the brake lever on the floor i guess it was a bitch to get home and ways hope you out there and ask around if you need any parts. im shore some guess have got bit up for graps
take it easy and watch that back end on cold tyres
i dont get how u can drop a zxr on cold tyres, i got plenty of traction from cold on my 636, although its abit different on black ice and wet surfaces lol, we all been there and done that i guess, any other winter riders here ?, although i do have pilot powers fitted to my bike and they grip very well from cold,
Well me and me mate realised that is was a warm day, the bike had been sitting for a few hours and it suddenly turned cold, our visors had misted up just sitting there and everything had a thin layer of moisture on it, that coupled with giving it a handful on cold tyres and a cold surface it was probably inevitable. that was on a BT010.

you're obviously not twisting that throttle enough rob
hmm, i exited lakeside went up round the back of st bedes under the under pass up into town down the hill round the round about and clocked 150 mph at the oast house and which point i shut off, got caught in the moment, but my pilot powers gripped when i nailed that throttle in second, how ever i dont nail the throttle when the tyres are cold and if there is any lean on the bike, thats just being silly then isnt it,
I didnt have any angle of lean, i was bolt upright, pulled out the carpark, got it up right and nailed it, next thing i was spinning up the road. Like i said, we reckon it was the the fact it turned cold all of a sudden and everything had moisture on it. Ill never know exactly of course.
