Re: Work Case #16 CRF450R

That's a good point, different strokes for different folks. I know the fuelling and the mapping is different on them as well as the gearbox so maybe more usable for something that isn't trail riding, I know there's a relatively active scene for supermotos on go cart tracks so maybe the much longer f...

Re: Work Case #16 CRF450R

Interesting, sounds a proper hooligan bike :D I was wondering why you wouldn't start with the 'X' enduro version to make a road legal one ? It has a wider spread gearbox and heavier flywheel surely ? That's exactly what I was wondering. I've ridden both made road legal, the X seemed a little better...

Re: COVID-19......Your Situation

Personally I'm fairly lucky in that I work for a big car manufacturer and if and when we do stop producing I'll be off for a while with my basic pay which is very good. Apart from that it's try to get food other than the essentials we'd already got in thanks to working opposite shifts a lot of the t...

Awesome cheers mate.

The monkey bike is looking good.

Re: Go Big and Ride Small

2 questions for the tiny bike guys, well 3 really. 1. I'm after some slightly more 50/50 tyres than the crap Chinese ones I've got on ATM but I'm struggling to find a rear, it's a 120/80/16 :shock: any suggestions? Best looking I've found so far are the anlas winter grip 2's. 2. Anyone fancy a tiny ...

Re: Sinnis blade opinions

Re: Sinnis blade opinions

Re: Sinnis blade opinions

If memory serves me right it's the Apache with different wheels. I did a trip a couple of years with a guy from on here who had am Apache, we road up to the lacks him from Leicester and spent 5 days riding round up there and then rode home, it never missed a beat. I've actually nicked a Sinnis off m...
