    MotoGP 2024

    People tend to forget how many variables there are, and it's VERY easy to get it wrong and VERY hard to get things right. Just think of all the different settings, Rebound, High Speed and low Speed Compression, Fork Angle/Fork Offset, Swingarm Length, Swing arm Pivot Point, Wheel Base, Engine...

    YZ 250 'delivery bike'.

    My Cerakote Showbike will also be purchased by the business next year.......... But I will have to get BullSmit to ride it for the promo pics as I am way way too slow.......although a lot younger. Haha.

    A classic mini clubman, and time on my hands.

    There aren't many of us in the Automotive side of things, I make less and spray more volume than the firearm guys, but they have other issues to deal with, gunsmithing and have a license etc etc. So a lot of them work out of a gunshop. I try to keep prices as low as possible even though it's a...

    Ha ha! Yes, you don't want this stuff in your oven that you cook in........also the fat vapour can ruin it.......much like your wife will ruin you. You can't get it locally, so you will have to import at about R2300 if you bring in 473ml So just shout if you ever want something done. Lekke

    A classic mini clubman, and time on my hands.

    As ek die verskil tussen powder en cerakote kan verduidelik is dit as volg........en altwee het sy plek. Powder is baie dik en sag, Cerakote is ultra dun en baie hard. Powder is so 'n 3H-4H Pencil hardness, Cerakote is 'n 9H Pencil hardness. Powder is so om en by 8-12 Mils dik en Cerakote is...

    @OomD Cerakote se weerstand teen petrol en ander goed is baie goed. Die prep werk is ook baie deeglik en is soos volg: 1. Was parte in degreaser 2. 1 Uur in Acetone op metale 3. Sanblast met 100/120 Grit Aluminium Oxide teen 80-100Psi 4. Raak glad nie weer van hier met kaal hande aan die part...

    Probably the only guy I follow is Rob Portman from Moto Rider World. When he was still with RideFast I made them a couple of wooden sunnies, that I later changed to Moto Rider World when he started it. He has a lot of inside info and love his live interviews with Simon Crafar that goes on for...

    MotoGP 2022.

    Razlan apparently said they will not look at a Moto2 rider, so I think at this stage it's between Darren and Raul. The team love Darren so lets hope it's not just a small chance, but that he is in.

    MotoGP 2022.

    In the last Moto Rider World's "Talking MotoGP" Rob Portman mentioned that he is sure Dazz will have a ride even if it is in Moto2 as the managers etc are speaking behind closed doors something we obviously would have no knowledge of. So lets cross fingers, what ever ride will support him.

    MotoGP 2022.

    From what I have heard is that the KTM's are crap on new rubber, too much mechanical grip or something along those lines. They can't find a middle way, it's either too much in one direction and then too much in the other direction. I believe the steel frame is too stiff(I always thought too much...

    Simon Patterson would LOVE for Dazz to fail or not have a ride. What Rob Portman said today after him and Dazz read the article.

    They all have the same limitations, so it's about managing your setup, which includes fuel and that's just one of the things, tyres, engine breaking, ride hight, acceleration and a ton of other things we don't know about........I mean the bikes know where they are on track and adjust engine...
