Get your suspenders checked for high speed dampening. Or in general

Marshy
24-12-2013, 06:31 PM
His forks were recently serviced and tuned by me, so they were clearly not the problem ;)
The rear shock still needs doing.

He was on 'completely shagged' tyres, which is the most likely culprit IMO. I've crashed before trying to get an extra day out of a tyre, like when I destroyed my shoulder 2 years ago. Cost me over $8k in repairs and medical costs. It's a false economy.

Ahh yes I toss tyres front ones before they hit the wear markers. Or sell.

The rear ones till the tyre marker or a little bit beyond.

Also did you want a little extra to chuck the rad guard in the post for me??

I'm not up in Sydney till the 12th. Coaching and setup day. Unless you can pop down to SMP south circuit on that day???

I did a 2:09 at Eastern Creek Extended Brabham(?) circuit recently.

08 R6 - Marshy Special

Quick action throttle, Brembo master cylinder, Annitori QS, UK Ntecs about 50% life.

Does anyone know roughly what lap time this would equate to on the EC GP circuit? Or Philip Island??

I started doing track days on Pani in March, best lap on first day back then was 2:43, best lap at PI was a 2:10. I'm sure I'm quicker on the R6 than the Pani now, go figure lol

When the Brabham circuit was introduced and lap times were being compared, it was generally agreed that the new section added 24 seconds, give or take a second. So a 2:09 on the full circuit would be a 1:45 on the GP circuit. Not too shabby! Especially considering your turn 1 entry was rubbish ;)

chubb
05-01-2014, 07:25 AM
I would say anywhere between 20-30 seconds depending on how strong you are in the new section.

I compared the FX 600 boys and it added 20 seconds to their time on average.

Comparing with the likes of me. It adds 25-30 seconds. I have a great dislike for the new bit. :sad::sad::sad:

Saturnalian
05-01-2014, 10:57 AM
None of these times add up for me. I think i need to do some serious Sth Circuit time.

I don't think i've ridden it since April but back then i was doing something like 2:27. I did 1:55's at PI and 1:49's on the GP at last St George.
I've always been woeful in the hairpin at the bottom of the bowl though. Maybe i'm just faster now......:pray2:
Time to ring Toprider i think and get stuck into it.

2.15s last time I was on new track in July and I've done 1.44s on GP now. I'm kind of looking forward to doing it again. I don't mind the new parts but not a fan of that hairpin.

So does that mean I might be 1:41-42 you think? I guess I'll find out on the 31st!

Can anyone estimate what my times at PI might be? Given I did a 2:10 my first time out when I did 2:43 on the Branham circuit I'm guessing low 1:40's??

Nah that was 5 months between drinks so my full track time should be 2.10ish now - all other things being equal. You should be 45s at least on GP I would imagine.

In general, there's very little time to be made in slow corners. Conversely, fast corners have HEAPS of time to be gained. Unless you've already got it sorted, the biggest place to make up bulk time at the Creek is turn 1. If you are in the high 1:40s (GP circuit), eg 46s to 49s, there's often anything up to 5 seconds to be gained through there alone. Getting it even partly right can drop 2 to 3 seconds almost immediately.

Actually mate I hate doing the tight new section but I think I'm relatively fast through there for some reason - always find I catch anyone I'm following up the twisty bit and often pass people at the T11 hairpin. Could mean my corresponding lap times on the GP circuit wont be as good as they should though...

True, scaring myself when I passed Sicko once and went in way too hot and felt like I was going to crash the Pani for about 5 seconds that felt like hours didn't help either. People used to tell me that I was fast in T1 when I was slower everywhere else...FML! :laugh:

I keep telling you - an R6 is an unfair advantage! They really are just soooo much better than the other 600s. The kwakas are pretty close, and then there's a large gap to the gixxer and honda.

Yeah I'm considering disembarking from the Suzuki camp later this year ... those R6's go up to 11. Well by the look of Condor's tacho, 16,500 rpm versus 14,500 rpm on my ancient gixxer! God knows how many ponies that translates into? Dan you should definitely stay with Suzuki's for a few more years ... (give the rest of us a chance!) :)

When I get down to 40s I'll start thinking about changing. I've got heaps more to learn first and no doubt a have a bit more damage to inflict on my old girl haha

In the meantime it's fun going around bikes that are way faster and worth way more (and maybe even look a little tidier).

I went back through natsoft to 2004 and dudes were doing 37s on gixxer 600s at the time so until I'm getting within a couple of seconds of that I can't say the bike isn't quick enough cause it is.

Admittedly they were probably a little, itsy bitsy better set up than mine but you get my point

Marshy
06-01-2014, 08:25 AM
I gave up on my K8 600 when I hit 43s. I was absolutely wringing its neck to do those times - completely ragged edge stuff, right on the limit - and I felt it had nothing left. Admittedly that was on bog-stock, never serviced suspension, which would've made a difference. But then I bought an R6 and did 43s literally on my 3rd flying lap ever on the bike.

Once you ride one, you will understand. Just ask Owen, who rode Steve's R6 on the weekend, and raved about it compared to his gixxer!!

Marshy
06-01-2014, 08:27 AM
Admittedly they were probably a little, itsy bitsy better set up than mine but you get my point

In supersport tune, with very hot engines, they are weapons! As a long string of ASBK Supersport titles from Phil Tainton's team will attest. But with not-breathed-on engines, and without highly tuned suspension, they are just too slow and soft.

dan
06-01-2014, 08:35 AM
Yeah he loved it. Said he felt faster straight away.

I've never touched my suspension so that is my next step. I won't have time to finish the gold forks before Jan 27 so will be replacing the oil and trying to set it up a bit better. The stuff that came out was horrid and like water.

If I get to the point where I don't feel like I'm making any gains I'll look at options then. Until that point, unless I'm banging out my fast times over and over I'm better off working on my riding than spending $7-8000 to get a cheeky drop in lap times.

I've only been track riding 12 months so I reckon I've got quite a while to go before my bike is the thing holding me back.

I gave up on my K8 600 when I hit 43s. I was absolutely wringing its neck to do those times - completely ragged edge stuff, right on the limit - and I felt it had nothing left. Admittedly that was on bog-stock, never serviced suspension, which would've made a difference. But then I bought an R6 and did 43s literally on my 3rd flying lap ever on the bike.

Once you ride one, you will understand. Just ask Owen, who rode Steve's R6 on the weekend, and raved about it compared to his gixxer!!

+1,000,000 Totally agree!! So much fun the R6, top bike! I'm planning to sell my K7 750 very soon and cross over. Thanks for the ride Spilly!
First session/hot lap I was easing equaling my 750 times and I came off with the biggest grin on my face. Dan is right too, they DO go to 11!

In supersport tune, with very hot engines, they are weapons! As a long string of ASBK Supersport titles from Phil Tainton's team will attest. But with not-breathed-on engines, and without highly tuned suspension, they are just too slow and soft.

They are very soft, that is for sure. Had a ride on my mates 2001 R6 and it felt much more precise than my K3 600.

How much difference do you think it would make to my times jumping on a R6?

Yeah he loved it. Said he felt faster straight away.

Best time on the gixxer over the weekend was 2:15.008. Found it tricky to be too keen on the gas too early, kept stepping out if I was too aggressive.
R6 felt like it was on rails and always in power band tho and it loved an early twist of the wrist! No doubt a lot of the 'on rails' feeling was suspension and slicks but the weight, wheelbase, rake and revs were glorious!
Seems like my timer dropped out on GPS whilst I was on Steve's bike tho so I'm not sure exactly what I was doing. Trying to decode now but I reckon I'd easily have equalled those times, in my first session on a new bike/setup! :jaw:

I actually don't agree with sticking with a Gixer just because they are capable of better lap times in the right hands. Even if the R6 wasn't faster (which it is), if it's giving you a huge grin factor in comparison on every lap, isn't that what it's all about anyway? Like I'm sure Troy Bayliss can get much better times out of a 999 than I will ever get on my Pani but I wouldn't consider it because it's an inferior motorcycle and nowhere near as much fun.

I personally think how you feel on a bike and how much fun you're having is more important than reaching the max potential lap times. I think you'd learn / improve more quickly on an R6 too, esp in Owen's case as he's riding a Gixer 750 so he's going quicker on a bike with less capacity - ie he's not just going quicker cos he has more horsepower, he actually has less. So to me that says the R6 is giving him more confidence / feel to ride better around corners / under brakes etc - where it matters.

Keep in mind too my R6 has bog standard suspension and no real engine work yet. So it's basically stock with a quick action throttle and Brembo master cylinder, slip-on exhaust (no Power Commander) quickshifter and rearsets.

Owen I say clean up the Gixer, flog it off and join the R6 club! As for you Dan, maybe sell 2 out of your dozen or so bikes and get one proper sorted race bike?! :P

Errr, I call bullshit on this (see above). I've never seen a rim do that, ever, except carbon fibre rims. Also, I've seen several cracked and actually snapped frames on gixxers from relatively minor offs. The K8 I bought from the auctions a while back (don't ask) had a massive crack all the way along the inside of the main frame rail surrounding the engine, but the bike wasn't very damaged (it certainly wasn't visible until I pulled it apart). Not on a weld or seam, but just in the middle of the main frame spar. Into the bin for that one.

And see the big weld down the side of the frame, directly under the 'S' on the tank? They snap that weld fairly frequently in crashes. The 1000 had a factory recall to reinforce the frame for that issue, but the smaller bikes went un-rectified, despite snapping there too (although presumably slightly less frequently than the bigger bikes).

To be fair to Suzukis, I think that the older ones (ie pre K6 1000 and K7 600/750) were actually rather tough. But from then on, they've been rubbish.

Went to the doctor this morning and he said that it is healing at the pace of a professional athlete. For my specific injury (knocking the front off the talus and dislocating the whole thing), to be walking in two months is exceptional.

I actually went for a ride day before yesterday on my RD and it felt alright. I'm going to come out on the 27th and give it a go. Don't know about St George - I'd love to do it but I need to be realistic and not push it. If I hurt it again it really fucks me up for work and for my trip mid year.

I love my Zx6r, I really do. But I have to admit that the first time I rode my old R6 (2006 model) I was blown away... then again I was coming from a cbr600rr '03, bog stock, road trim. And the R6 was a race bike that had a full Akro/PCV/I.Module/custom map/slicks/etc. Suspension and brakes were standard though other than braided lines. I could not believe how much 'racier' the bike was!! From the riding position to how it rev'ed it was light years ahead of the old cbr. And like others have said, straight away I was faster on it but then again I expected that seeing as the bike had a lot more power and decent tires to start with.

Funnily enough, I hated the ZX6R the first time I rode it... came back to the pits after the first session thinking "You should have never sold the R6, you idiot" and then by the 3rd session I was 2secs faster than I had ever been on the R6! :first:

To me, the ZX6R has the edge in power delivery (if not outright power if comparing stock vs stock) and brakes. ESPECIALLY brakes as I hated the brakes on the R6, SRJLs helped but they were never on pair, then again it could have been something on my bike... who knows?! It's also a lot more planted on fast corners and it allows you to make a LOT of mistakes and live to tell the story where the R6 felt like it was going to make me pay every time I screwed up.

In the end, they're both awesome bikes but I'm now a ZX6R lover and I can't see that changing anytime soon!

Marshy
06-01-2014, 02:33 PM
To be fair to the ZX6R, I've never actually ridden one in anger. When I was upgrading from the gixxer, I was lucky enough to have 2 mates - one with a ZX6R and one with an R6 let me do a couple of laps back to back. I did 2 veeeery slow laps on the absolutely pristine, show-bike standard ZX, rode down pit lane and jumped straight onto the R6. They both felt SOOOOOO much better than the gixxer - I was just blown away by both. They both had HEAPS more power! The ZX had much more midrange, but on the R6 I kept bouncing it off the limiter cos it revved SOOOOO FAST that I didn't realise I needed to change gear so quickly!

I was very nervous of the showroom condition bike, so I was really slow, but then on the (still very pretty) R6 I was so comfortable after half a lap that I was knee-down everywhere and pressing on very hard!

I'd be very interested in having a crack at a few hot laps on a Zed, just to compare. Hey, maybe Ed or Little Mick could go swapsies with me for a few laps next time we are out? :pray: :pray2:

Yep, I never check the dash and you would be unlucky for anyone else to either. As I said, if it's obvious ie. timer on the triple clamp or phone stuck to the tail or tank, we HAVE to do something about it; but, if it's not obvious, it will slip through undetected. It's pretty hard to do anything about aftermarket dash units that have built in timing, just like you can't do anything about the OEM lap timer that's built into modern bikes.

The whole timing thing is part of MEGA's contract with ARDC to differentiate it from race days and race practice days and has to do with the insurance cover. It was all done long ago before bikes came with timers built in and before the era of GPS and smart phones so the contracts and rules are all behind the times. Lucky for all of you rule breakers, the technology is way to advanced to keep track of, so if you do it discretely, it is impossible to detect. Just be smart about how you word things in social media etc. to not incriminate yourself and remember, you're not breaking any rules if a friend decides to time you from the roof and then tells you what your times were, later.;)

Oh! Never would have guessed that. I'd ask how it works but i imagine it's hard to explain on a forum

Rotary damper. Instead of a straight plunger-type piston, the damping action works in a circular direction.

WHich Dashes do you guys run with the inbuilt timers? Im sick of the old XT infrared one and cant be bothered with the phone/apps..

I got the H&M same as Chubb, I've had a few problems with it so I'm not endorsing it highly but it's pretty good.

Yeah, but these are infra-red beacon types, right? Which are completely useless (sorry, don't mean to offend).

I'm just getting in some pretty special but competitively priced timers. Should be a week or so. Watch this space...

Keen as when you get your hands on them Nick. Can't rely on my friendly spectators getting times on me every lap, every session.

No I haven't used them there very basic from what I'm told but do the trick for $100 mark and yes infrared so you can only use them on races or ARDC days.
Heaps of guys In the States use them but I already sell the HM dashes so that spot is taken for lap times. I'm seriously cutting back on the amount of stuff I sell and just putting my focus into to the stuff I import. But I'm still happy to help every one on here out with stuff I don't normally carry.

Hey Steve, I was running a Starlane GPS-RW on my spare/wet bike until recently when it died in a crash (not the fault of the laptimer - it got pancaked). I used to think it was great, but the software always pissed me off and over time I've had various issues with it, from corrupted/garbled screens to never finding satellites. I used to have to turn it on and off repeatedly until it finally (randomly) found the satellites, then leave it on all day - if it turned off, it has the same lengthy hit-and-miss as to whether it worked or not. The shift lights eventually got completely out whack (although this clearly won't be an issue on the 3X) and would trigger at random rpm....

The buttons didn't work properly either - totally impossible to use with gloves on, and still very difficult to use even normally. Again, it looks like they have fixed this for the Stealth.

Then there's the software. Faaaark me! It's Italian, so completely non-intuitive and fickle. Some stuff just never made sense, but most I eventually worked out.

There were a couple of things I really liked about it - the 'fastest lap/sector' light was the most-used feature of all, even though it was a tiny red light on one side of the unit. Also, it synced to the laptop using bluetooth, which was uber-cool - once you spent a day realigning Com ports!! I don't think the 3X has this though - it's USB only, from the bit I read.

The XT Racing was a total revelation in comparison! The software is written by Americans, and it shows. It is intuitive, and just works. It has more features than the Starlane too. You can do a lot more configuration, and data review, on the actual device itself, without the need to use a laptop.

in summary, I thought the Starlane was great (when it was new and working properly), until I tried the XT. Then I couldn't believe how much better the XT was. The XT is a fair bit cheaper too, which is kinda odd because usually you get what you pay for. Except Italian stuff, maybe, where you pay over the odds for a product that looks flash, but doesn't work properly for long and is infuriating to live with on a day-to-day basis. Ducati, anyone?

Here's another review that essentially says the same thing as I found: http://highperformancecrew.com/showthread.php?20583-Starlane-Stealth-GPS3x-lap-timer

I'll do an install thread over the weekend of the Zed.

I'm sick of doing 45's Rick, I wanna a 43! The thing that sucks about my times is I usually set a decent one (for me) at the start of the day then generally run within a second of it for a few sessions before going backward at the end of the day. So I'm very consistent - at not improving! I'd love to do even just the odd lap that was faster!

Metzeler Racetec slick, K1 front, K2 rear

2nd session best of 1:43.75, happy, didn't feel that fast, still felt awkward on most of the track, different line for turn 2 basically every lap.

5th session 1:42.2! So damn stoked! Felt really good that session, felt nice and relaxed, had been pushing the front after the bridge in the 4th session, added one extra line of preload in the front end which settled it down nicely.

6th session, front tyre had a band of tear both sides, felt vague and tucky from the get go, ended up backing off for turn 1 a looot earlier than I had been all day as I just didn't trust the front end, was going to pull in but went for one more lap. Bad move.

Lost the front in turn 8 exit, already hard on the gas after the ripple strip ends and it went. Was sliding the front hard for a long while, thought I had it, was trying like hell to jam my knee in to the deck to bring it back, really thought I had it until BOOM. No dice.

Destroyed the race glass, damages radiator, lhs rearset gone, hole in swingarm. Holed up leathers, but I was fine!

Bummed out that I kinda ignored the signs the bike was giving me, but I know why it happened and am okay. Still bummed though...

Yet happy with the lap time!

Sorry to hear, saw a bike in yellow group also bin it at T8 in session 5 on Sun ... fast place to lose it ... I reckon that bike got 5 meters of air when it hit the gravel trap ... saw what little remained of it as I was packing up.

Yes. As Spilly found out running an SC1 front. It was fine when the track was 20 degrees in the morning, but when the track passed 50 degrees by lunchtime, it was hot tearing and getting chewed up big-time!

fyi, Pirelli and Metzler are manufactured in the same factory(ies?), and whilst they seem to use slightly different rubber/compounds, they are pretty similar. Here's the Pirelli tech info page: http://www.pirelli.com/pirellityre/ww/en/motorcycle/diablo_superbike.tab?tab=9

I so much prefer turn 8 from GP circuit, loads more fun. I tried to upload some shots of my leathers, but keep getting an error? They held up pretty well, I've dropped them off to Irena at Gimoto to get repaired. Outer layer on my right hip wore through as did the stitching, also on my right forearm. Didn't get through the inner layer anywhere. No holes, no skin loss. Was sliding for a long time, so pretty happy about that! Didn't tumble thank god. Helmet never touched the deck!

Interesting about the harder compound for hotter days, my front was toast, that one more lap thing got me...

I think this is because images are often stored in the database with everything else (which is great for ease of backups etc, but mysql can be shit at large files). I've just converted it to storing images in the normal filesystem, outside of the db, so it should work now. Let me know if not!!

Last time I tried it worked then I refreshed the page and the attachment wouldn't work anymore. I also have to use the basic uploader as the regular one is non responsive but I reckon that has more to do with my Chrome than anything else...

Here goes nothing

Me too. This happened before also. Can't remember the fix (clearing the browser cache, maybe?). Lemme have a look.

Awww, I'm sorry fella. I haven't told Luke I crashed his bike yet, I'd feel bad...:faint2:

Speaking of which, I am going to have to chat to you once my bank balance recovers a little about some bits and pieces I am going to need.

Ok, got it. I've updated the server file again, and now it's just a case of going into your Chrome settings, selecting 'show advanced settings', then clear browsing history, then check the images and files option and select 'from the beginning of time' in the drop down list.

Then restart Chrome and voila! The flash uploader works again! :thumb:

Don't be too hard on yourself zoidberg... now that I saw the pictures it became clear what the problem was. The paintjob. That color combination is well known to cause crashes to even the most seasoned and skilled riders.

Gotta agree with Ed there zoid. I have also fallen amiss due to a similar paint job

Coming to think of it, the only bike I never crashed never had a paint job... lol
