OK my rear tyre profile (and tread) is pooped. But Triumphumphumph on his Trumpet has me beat fair and square on the chicked strip front. Same tyres, same journey. :oops:

Cheers for todays rideout mate :thumbsup:

Nit picking Beenz? Only a couple of mil in it... Must've been a good day out though.

Will suspension differences etc make a difference?

Possibly, but the rider makes the real difference. The Gixer is quite a bit lower than the 'old' Strumpet maybe that has an impact.

....nah, not looking for excuses, Triumphumphumph was on better form. An impressive bke that 'old' Daytona. I still prefer the Gixer though, although I had a couple of slightly worrying power slides that nearly resulted in skid marks today. A top day out.

Its not a race :lol:

Great ride for the time of year bud!

There's nowt in it.

I think it was that last rdbt that took the last mill off mine; you know the one where you you thought it would be a good idea to try speedway style! :shock:

So so good to get back on two wheels! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Is that when you have you're heart in your mouth? If so that will certainly explain it! :lol:

Credit where credits due. If Squirrel Hunter was with us he'd have had the first post on the ride out before we'd have got past Malmesbury. :lol:
either that or gone pine sniffing :wink:
