  1. +1 Here in West Australia the main problem has been it's so bloody hot Last few days have been around the 40c (104f) mark, not real comfortable bike riding weather :icon_nono: We're the same in winter if it gets down to ~2c that is a really cold day, most are around 5-6c :icon_think:
  2. Just got a new PR3 on the rear a week or so ago, seems good so far much like the PR2 :icon_think: The extra grooves should be better in winter, will have to see what mileage I get Seems after stopping the PP here in Aus and getting a lot of complaints they are selling it again as well as the PR2
  3. +1 They do stuff like that all over the world not just the US Not sure about the US but with a few brands of cars (Hyundai in particular) we get in Oz that wont crank without your foot on the brake, even if it's an auto and in park A new Hyundai van at work wont even let you move the selector on the auto box without your foot on the brake :icon_wall:
  4. Never met you Brett but you were an intergral member of this board, just re-read the thread about the gay porn in the mail and I laughed and then was sad, RIP mate. Keep riding thise twisties forever!

  5. A man of like mind I have a 98 XX and always figured if I updated to a 03-07 XX I would want to swap the instruments as I prefer the analogue as well Yeah I've seen a couple of those and it doesn't seem too hard, should actually be slightly easier possibly :icon_think:
  6. ? Yes sir. +1. Fuck that marble horseshit. Ive used these on my last 3 BB's and VFR's with zero issues. Pick em up at your local auto parts store. Only thing is that they might be visible on the Rumph though. Yeah quite a few VFR guys either do what you have or the marble trick, particularly on the VTECH's :icon_think:
  7. Yeah I got a 4" nail in the rear PR2 a couple of years back and it was feeling really weird on the way home, when I finally looked it had gone in on the RH 1/3 of the tyre but skewed out and hit the edge of the rim :icon_wall: Only had a couple of thousand km on it too
  8. Glad to see you got it sorted mate
  9. Ha Ha yeah I realise it's mainly the traffic over there and was being a bit facetious, the missus is a Pom and watches a lot of those "Move to the Country" type pommie TV programs and there was one the other day where the guy looking to move did a 4 mile drive to work that took him ~40 minutes :icon_wall: I hate that it takes me ~45 mins to to do the 60 odd km drive to work in the hills Although I have done it in under 30 on the Bird
  10. Devon is a lot closer than Fort Lauderdale, Florida is ! Can't argue with that LOL I really must get my ass up there next year. hopefully have my turbo Bird finished by then. Ha ha it does sound funny hearing Poms talk about how far places are One of the guys on the local Perth WA forums did a similar distance (Perth-Geraldton and back) as a day trip not long ago and the missus has been up to Gero to visit her sister for a weekend
  11. Yeah I put on a 46T Supersprox Stealth rear with a 16T front and a Gold DID 530ZVM2 chain ~3 years/33000km's ago and so far I've only needed to adjust it 3 times very slightly The Scottoiler obviously helps as well :icon_think:
  12. Probably because the XX in Oz and Europe had the HISS security system with a chip in the top of the key and changed the barrel setup :icon_think:
  13. Hmmm it's been a while, BUMP
  14. Why not just download from here > Public Discussion Forums > Mechanical/FAQ > Important/Useful Threads Honda CBR1100XX Service Manual / Shop Manual - CBR1100XX_Shop_Manual.pdf - 146.32Mb That's for the FI bikes but there isn't much difference with the 97-98 other than the carbs etc :icon_think: Also > Honda CBR1100XX Genuine Honda Parts Catalog - CBR1100XX_Parts_Manual.pdf - 7.445Mb
