Speedway is THE cheapest motorsport there is make no mistake about that. Unless your into lawnmower racing Exactly my point Glyn. I think Gem missed the irony of my post. You missed the suspension tuning before the M/X bike is even put on track. 350-3000 depending on the level of competition. How many cylinder heads are needed on a CRF250 each season due to poor design, 2 or 3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedflash Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 Thats how it is. Speedway is by far the cheapest motorcycle racing. I did a KTM 450 the parts came to £1242 + vat and he has 2 bikes he tells me he spent £18,000 last season. If he rides speedway and he only rides NL it will cost him £9k including a new bike . Speedway parts are getting more expensive but so is everything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted December 15, 2012 Report Share Posted December 15, 2012 I think Gem missed the irony of my post. Yes, I did. I'm that used to people saying how expensive speedway is compared to other forms of motorcycle racing I was beginning to believe them.

ukrossifan Posted December 18, 2012 Report Share Posted December 18, 2012 No news? Team set (strongest in League on paper, now to translate it on track) Track being improved . Can't wait for 2013, no more 'news' is fantastic news 😜 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justathought Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Team set (strongest in League on paper, now to translate it on track) I don't know Somerset look pretty tasty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukrossifan Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 I don't know Somerset look pretty tasty. they look pretty good yes, but I'd take Roynon to average more than 3 points a match more than their No.4 Alex Davies which I see as the difference in our favour, especially on away tracks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeminiYou're probably right Gemini, this is supposed to be the time for good will to all men and women. I'm sure someone will be saying bah humbug, no names mentioned of course. Hope to meet up with you next season, providing the old legs keep working. Not sure I could recognize you with management not allowing collies into the stadium. (Got to have a dig somehow!!) . JohnD7244. Enjoy your speedway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazza29 Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 No enough improvers? To me I think both Lewis's can improve aswell as Adam and lasse. Think you lot have a great team! Top contenders for the title along with us rebels! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedflash Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 I have said this before. I believe 100% that every rider at Leicester will improve their average. Thats from Number 1 to number 8. We will have to wait and see. But to say not enough improvers in my opinion is a bit ......... Happy New Year.
