    Ride out - Leaving from London/Essex Areas

    Hi Turbosport biker peeps,

    I have been speaking to Lee (Leecossie) and Karl (Cossie Karl) about going for a ride out, infact going on a few.

    Tone I know you are in the area and a biker, up for it??

    Who else is/might be

    Can meet at an Essex pub EG Dick Turpin/Halfway house or at Ace cafe on a Friday night for a drink and decide when and where to go....

    let us know

    Meet up ate a pub/ace in about 4 weeks and then ride out within 2 weeks of that

    Spend the whole day out, visit the coat or something

    I'll try and make a ride out, if one of my rare days off coincides with a bit of current bun

    Probably take the big blue one, not the ickle red one

    head out to high beech first if your going on a sunday, its full of bikes and cars when the weathers nice, and the roads through epping forest are pretty good, It'll get you in the mood anyway.

    Tone you can keep Dom company
    Karl pull your finger out and get a bike sorted.
    Smiffy might be up for it.
    As long as its not to slow a ride gets boring otherwise

    I bought this on Thursday to commute on to my new job for a month or 2 till i get what i want.

    Really nice machine as it happens and after 3 ninjas I happily get a GSXR over one any time now.

    Forget them you want Metzler Racetechs soft front medium rear, they are like a track day tyre, all my m8s wont go behind me cos they get covered in stones where they are so sticky.

    Got new tires on the bike yesterday,went to this place http://www.motorcycletyresuk.com/index2.htm and would recommend them to anyone,they do some quite good deals and the guy was very helpfull and explained everything about all the different tires,ended up with a set of michelin pilot powers on the ZX and it feels like a completely different bike now
