XS1100

Realy I would have thought it would have been a nice bike for plodding along on

Check this out strong as hell! Can not think of a use other than a magnectic sump plug.

When fitting a new tube, I always try to get a Continental one... They're top quality stuff and (IMHO) the best available. Info on tubes is available on the Conti website here http://www.conti-bike.co.uk/default.asp?pid=28#tubes They're NOT cheap, but I've used a single (unrepaired) Conti tube with numerous tyres and been totally confident that it's OK to do so... When faced with the new tyre and "suspect" inner tube dilemma, I'll only fit a repaired or non-Conti tube when it's pretty much an emergency situation... Just my 2p worth...XS1100

Hooooo I learned some thing there to

Ho I see your using Kawasaki ZX10R motor they kick out stock.199.86 HP (147 kW) @ 13000 rpm. Any way have to go walk about catch yer later

200 BHP from a 998 at the rear wheel(or crank?) from normally aspirated motor is good,it this a motor of your own design? The GSX-R 1000 kicks out about 180bhp 12.000 your motor must be spinning fast.

What spec is the motor? Whats the BHP at the rear wheel?as the front wheel got auto clutch how dose it disengauge from the drive?excuse the spelling

I was going to try that with Ronsons lighter fuel and then you would get high on solvent abuse when checking tire pressures KA BOOOM

Derek Brien has been killed in an accident at the Isle of Man TT. RELATED LINKS McGuinness wins 16th Isle of Man TT The 34-year-old Irishman crashed on the first lap of the opening Supersport event at the Gorselea section of the circuit. Brien is the third rider to die at this year's TT after sidecar racer Bill Currie and his passenger Kevin Morgan were killed in a practice crash last Tuesday. Brien, from Bellewstown in county Meath, is the 234th competitor to lose their life on the Snaefell Mountain Course during the Isle of Man TT races and Manx Grand Prix since its inception in 1911. A statement on the Isle of Man TT website read: "ACU Events Ltd regrets to announce the death of Derek Brien, 34, from Co. Meath in Ireland who was killed during the first Supersport race at the 2011 Isle of Man TT Races following a high-speed accident at Gorse Lea. "Derek was an experienced road racer who first competed on the Isle of Man in the Manx Grand Prix in 2007 and competed in the TT Races in 2009 and 2010. He had a highest TT place of 13th in the 2010 Supersport 1 race.

YERRRRRRR! Chad take all the credit lol

who wants a a dodgy tea bag any way ! its rubbish

yerrr Stu!dodgy linky cheep site software

Thats very interesting would you intend putting this bike in to production at some stage? Carbon fiber is the way to go to loose weight but hell expensive! I like the idea of engine brake from both wheels. is the front wheel linked to the gearbox sounds a silly question but I would have thought they need both to spin at the same rate.May be I should get my coat

/t2209-guy-martins-used-tea-bag#25284 Noooo honest

and win nowt!

na from what I can gather nowt like I thought the same. Its very clever design more so than that I recon. Dunno about the advantages though. It must suck a few BHP out the motor.

I don't usaly do a search for used tea bags but I am skint and thirsty Thought I might sqeeze a drop out of this. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/USED-Guy-Martin-Yorkshire-Tea-bag-/260797222375?pt=UK_Sports_Memorabilia_ET&hash=item3cb8b9cde7

Was ment in a figure of speech I would think the electronic side of this bike would be quite big. I would like to see how the wheel gets its drive.

I love it I could as many questions on this project,the ECU must be the size of a table top. Keep in touch on how things progress cheers.
