South West Bikers | Motorcycle Forum

hi Bikerbird and thanks for the welcome ;~)

yeah well, I do alot of forum surfing from KillSpills.

http://www.killspills.org.uk

Nice to be here dude. However, Im now a member of 17 forums! But i think I'll be spliting my time between hear and the CBR site. ;)

Hi all. My name is Daz and I ride a CBR600 and Aprilia SL1000 Falco. Ive just moved to Somerset from Kent and Im hoping I'll be able to use this fantastic forum to find out when and where some rideout are. BTW - im part of a think called KillSpills, but I'll let you know about it in good time. :P N...

Did i ones hear that more people die from being electrocuted by there alarm clock then death by bike in the UK!!

See its not even safe to get out of bed !! ;)

hey dude,

Im in Frome, about 40 mile away. Anytime ya want to hook up for a blat let me know.

thanks tom.

thanks for your posts guys. ;) The reson i ask is that on the rear i have no chicken strips but on the front i have huge ones! I then noticed that the person who owned the bike before me, had the rear preload hard and hi. So i got thinking if lowing it will change the bike and geometry to better use...

Would adjusting the rear suspension hight affect the tyre wear (chicken strips) of the front tyre? I know the effects on the handing, ie up on the back will usually mean the bike will drop into the corner more. But would it affect where the front tyre will grip, thus changing the wear Patten?

thanks you lot, out of that lot i should be able to find someone ;)

Ta dude,
Looks Bristol is the best option.

Anyone else know of any non-dealer that does Aprilia. I like to support the small business ;)
