My first supermoto race.
« on: June 05, 2007, 06:24:39 AM »
Hi,just a race report from my first supermoto race ever.

Practice,rain rain and I have to use my rainbike with raintyres on were very slippery and
hard to get good laps with racers falling everywhere :-(
Then were the Time-qualification and it went well to lap 8,were on a goooood lap and
then the raintyre blizztred of heat and I went down and hirt my ankle very bad. :cry:

Manage to get 14th place on startgrid of 44 racers anyway! :-o

First final,I got a good start with my new "startshot" and dry bike with slicks on and passed 7 racers,got 8th placed and were very proud. :evil:

It was 30min to next final and my boot were stuck on foot and I have to keep it on. :x

I was soo soore so I didn?t drive well ?caused pain and couldn?t use my feet to balance with in
turns ,finally got 13 place and 9th overall.

BUT nobody,I say nobody,passed me at any straight! :evil: :-D
I went to hospital afterwards, it was no broken,but foot have the size of a football, :-o

Ps:do you like my number? 8-)

Good results doordie, sorry about the crash. I've broken my ankle twice and it will never be right. Are you running the new clutch?  The number says it all.

d**n Doordie!

You know you can quit for the day when you get injured! Come back another day! You are a bunch tougher than me or that I ever was! So I guess that is where the do-or die came from!

I hope you heal up soon!

Alan :-D :-D :-D

Homemade porting,(197*exhaust and 130*transfer) with higher compression than stock.


how does the motor run with the 197* exhaust timing. does it still have nice wide power band.

Nice or nice,it?s a bit "peaky" powerband but I like it that way! :evil:
Not for trailriding or so in my opinion... :wink:
