[my67xr]

Sunday might be my first ride of the Braaap Daytona....

 

[ROLLAS13]

Is there scrutineering tomorrow?? And what time to the gates open?

 

[my67xr]

might be basic?
probably just a quick look over, no major oil leaks, and no open end bars etc

 

[my67xr]

Not a big turnout here, 8 bikes so far.
I'm having fun getting used to the Braaap.
It's so touchy with the PWK28.
Track prep is pretty good, a bit loose in a couple of spots.
And it's twice the size of the Eudunda track.

 

[my67xr]

Ouch! My first off!
Not sure what happened there, maybe a bit too much speed through the whoops.
Ribs are feeling pretty sore atm!
Im going to feel it tomorrow!!

But did you get it on camera??

 

[ROLLAS13]

Hope you're alright man! We weren't there much longer after you guys left

 

[Lex233]

Is there any events like this around wollongong

 

[ROLLAS13]

hey mate there should be a page in the rideday section for each state

 

[my67xr]

Yeah, I did.
The video was too big for photobucket though.

Been feeling pretty sore since.
In fact I had to call the Ambulance this morning to get checked out.
I've been waiting in hospital since 9.30 this morning for some x-rays.
I might have broken a couple of ribs, but more likely to just be badly bruised.

 

[ROLLAS13]

**** mate no wonder you were having trouble breathing!! Hope your alright

 

[my67xr]

Yeah, i'm all good no broken ribs or fractures, just some internal bruising on them.
The doctor did say a have a previously broken rib on my back though ? I have no idea when i did that one, lol ??


I've only had a quick look over the bike, and all i can see is the L/H grip is a bit torn.


How are you feeling today Brenton, after your off ?

 

[china911]

ouch ... most importantly did you end up cutting a few laps on the Braaap ?? and what did you think of it.

 

[LEO DPRO 037]

Yeah im ok. Left ankle and right wrist are a little sore but nothings broken..
Oh hold on, nothing except my clutch lever that is.

 

[LEO DPRO 037]

Lucky I was there with mcgyver67xr.
Chinese socket and masking tape = new clutch lever!!!

 

[my67xr]

Brenton i will send you some links to the ASV levers, what colour do you want ?


Tony, yeah i got 5 laps in before i hurt myself.
The bike ran faultlessly, jetting is spot on.
If anything the Polini PWK28 is a bit too touchy, i found it steers with the rear wheel pretty easily, lol.
Power wise i am rethinking about doing a ported head for it, it doesn't need it, the torque is full on, i only needed 3rd gear on the track, with a couple of corners i dropped it back to second.
The track was pretty big too, twice the length of the other track i have ridden on.


This is an aerial view taken 7 years ago, it has changed a fair bit since then

I have a few photos and a couple of short videos to post up soon too.

 

[LEO DPRO 037]

Im thinking red or black for the levers. Your bike totally steers with the rear wheel. Very fast bike!!!

 

[my67xr]

and a couple of quick videos off my phone
