    Replacement HT leads

    I've been adding a few bits to my 2011 Roadster over the years an it's about how I want it, so I was a bit pissed when it started an with intermittent misfire a couple of months ago. The engine revs freely to 7000rpm through all gears and has been professionally tuned on the dyno to extract the...

    RDU 2021

    Second verse same as the first 😝 We didn’t get to meet up in Walcha last year so how about giving it a crack in the first or second week of Oct. Who’s keen ? I’m proposing early Oct so it doesn’t clash with PI on the 24th.

    RDU 20

    12 weeks to October and PI cancelled this year. Is it too early to start working on an October date for RDU 20 @ Walcha ?

    A little perplexed and curious.

    Just back from a weekend away with an assortment of bikes with the usual stories to tell but had an experience that has left me wondering. I was following a gen 2 hayabusa through undulating back country roads at reasonable speed when I entered a left hand sweeper with about a 10deg incline...

    Roadster wave rotors

    I've been looking at options to upgrade my 2011 roadster breaks without much success. I've looked at Artrax and Galfer for wave rotors however they don't list the rocket in their product catalogue, I've also looked at Pretech for 6 pot calipers but their online store has been down for over a...

    Peg feeler upgrade

    like everyone else I try to make little changes to customise the bike. I’ve upgraded front and rear suspension with great results for handling but now I’m chaffing foot pegs worse than ever. The original problem was the speed that the peg feelers wore through. My latest mod is to press fit...

    Ramair crankcase breather mod

    I fitted the ramair filter at 28000km with the crankcase foam filter. I don’t baby the bike and often use full throttle in top gear when on group runs. After getting home from a recent run I could could see a faint vapour at the back of the motor. The motor has done 40,000km and Is due for its...

    STS Auto indicator install

    Installed the STS auto cancel indicator system. Works a treat. Senses speed and direction so turns indicators off on the run. When I’m acting my age I have no trouble with the manual off switch but when I’m searching for red line and concentrating on trajectory out of a corner I often forget to...

    Just my observation

    This is the third year that I've owned my roadster and I would say that I feel very comfortable on the bike, which leads to my confidence in the bikes performance during a ride. I recently travelled to Melbourne / PI and back from Brisbane with 11 other bikes completing roughly 4800km of back...

    Dust Hustle 2016

    The Ellaspeed Dust Hustle is on this weekend at the Mick Doohan Raceway (Northgate) in Brisi. It's not a bad day out if you enjoy watching a bit of flat tracking. I'll probably be there for the session after lunch. If you're going, remember there's a few new shops in Banyo (5 min away) that will...

    Suspension upgrade question

    After researching tyre combo's on the forum I recently replaced both avon's with a cobra on the front and an exedra max on the back of my roadster. I've been very happy with the overall performance and the noticeably lighter steering presumably provided by the slightly larger diameter of the...

    Engine Management Warning Light

    I returned home from a short ride on Sunday and sat at idle for about 2 minutes while I was on board before the engine started missing and sounded like it was firing on two pots. I slipped it into first and rode for about 50 metres before the third pot came back on line. Since then the engine...
