BT023 replacements and they are meant to be superb

Have been running the 023s since I bought the bike 2 years ago with no complaints. These T30s are virtually the same price and according to reviews are a massive step up, seems a no-brainer to me

Picked up a new front wheel rather cheap on fleabay, aswell as the new Bridgestone T30 tyre to try out. Will get fitter to have a look at old tyre for damage, not hopeful though! Only had a couple thousand left on it anyway. Both should come Monday but am now going away with my girlfriend mon-fri so...

So then, my trip to Scotland started well! Only 10 miles from home whilst overtaking a lorry a rather large stone or similar was flicked into my path with no time to react. Very large thud at 55mph! X( Just managed to keep control of the bike and limp to the layby half mile up the road. No more trip...

I misread graph, 10:1 was the line from a Dyno test a few months ago before I started fiddling.

Damn I need to carry one in my pocket at all times for certain road users

Hello and welcome
Good choice of bike, on a Bandit 6 myself. I'm up in Wincanton but tend to come down to Dorch a lot with biker buddies, see you around

Certainly was, was a difficult find

Would love to make the trip down for this
Haven't done it for a few years, but I've been driving a classic mini around so i'm used to Kart handling

Happy Birthday bud, see you soon!

Thanks for input guys, found Twist of the Wrist on youtube and will be giving that a look when work allows. Think you were spot on Scorcher with leaning away from the corner, my lower half is happy to go with the bike but my torso and head....not so much. Feels like I'm sat twisted! Will be going fo...
