  1. And you wont find the exact one, except at similar prices.
  2. Sounds like a great man and a great help to our sport, we could use more like him. RIP Dennis.
  3. We could have a veteran guest on the Derny bike.
  4. That's interesting, can you provide a link to actual product and price?
  5. Did you mean 'perspective'? Now that it has American owners, maybe they might adopt a few American ideas? Different engines different tyres and different brake materials, coupled with a more seat of the pants requirement for driving, might restore more of the relevance to more of the public and enable smaller or newer teams to be more competitive. The GTR would be gradually phased in and is already competitive with existing equipment, so I don't quite see the connection to Ross's statement.
  6. F1 has changed it's engine regulations many times.
  7. SpeedwayGB @SpeedwayGB SpeedwayGB @SpeedwayGB Whilst there is still genuine belief that the Bees can remain on track in 2017, we will continue to give them that opportunity. Many thanks.
  8. They had their chance last week when Buster faced questions (most of which were pathetic).
  9. Not unusual. http://shop.joehughesinternational.com/joehughes/catalogue.asp?Category=IGNITIONS-%3ESPARK+PLUGS-%3ENGK
  10. Well it might make the 'elephant' less conspicuous.
  11. They could probably sell it for building and recover their losses.
  12. It's as depressing as a row of rain-offs. I can't help thinking that there is a lot of tinkering going on to delay what will eventually be inevitable.
  13. To me it would be preferable than nothing but a lot here seem to be saying "Brandon or bust."
  14. Would that be because of travel difficulties or because your claim (to be a KL fan) is conditional and not totally loyal?
  15. No. And he's daft because it would void the warranty and probably wouldn't pass the machine examiners.
  16. A rev limiter is unlikely to increase service intervals significantly. You might think it levels the playing field but everyone on rev limited GMs would still be in the hands of the current tuners. The GTR is DOHC whereas the GM is SOHC, the GTR has superior lubrication and is more tolerant to missed services (which are much less frequent than those required by other engines). There are now claims that GM and possibly Jawa are working on better engines, that might be considered a reaction to the GTR and is certainly an admission of the imperfections of their existing models.
  17. Not many because there aren't many tracks that you can walk or bus to and some of them are so horrible that you probably wouldn't want to go twice.

  19. Well as you've decided to cut yourself off from it, it isn't really any concern of yours.
