Pastrana
Roll cage, helmet, neck brace, reinforced steel chassis, looks fairly safe compared to this; He must be getting old.

The Beta Clutch Fix
Carried this out when you first came up with it a while back, it works. Very clear instructions and well explained. Clutch AND carb OCD, what next?

270cc Vs 250cc Exhaust Note?
Yes it's normal. Distinguishing feature of the 270.

Boot Care
When you have finished all of that, leave them on their sides like when they arrived in the box, otherwise they sag forward from the ankle area. Also, observers love riders who wear white boots, makes it much easier to see when you put your feet down (unless it is snowing)

What Mods Do You Do To Make A 2008 Lighter
Only put enough fuel in for what you need. If you return to the start area after each lap, only put enough fuel in for one lap. Take the side stand off. If you ride when it is muddy, scrape off the excess mud between sections or whenever it starts to build up.

Racing Triple Clamp
Any height adjustment with them? If so, how much?

2008 2t With Keihin Carb
You can access the clamp nearest the airbox from the side by positioning said clamp so that it faces the triangular cut out on the frame just above where the rear brake assembly bolts to the frame. Put your hand underneath to hold the clamp as it is loosened to stop it rotating away from your screwdriver. The other clamp nearest the carb can then be loosened and the airbox to carb rubber boot slid back towards the airbox and clear of the rear of the carb. Squirt a bit of WD40 (other lubricants are available) on the joint betwixt airbox and boot to aid slideage.

Rev-3 Carb Hiccup
Mine does that too when going down steep hills. Keep the throttle open a bit on the down hill, clear it out before the descent and again when you reach the bottom of the hill. Some bikes seem to just pop pop pop down on tickover with no problems. I'm sure someone will be able to explain why.

Fujigas Takes The 1st Spanish Round!
If it was a drinking contest, my money would be on George Best. If it was a fight outside a nightclub, my money would be on John Terry. Followed by floods of tears.

And they say Hitchcock is the master of suspense. Good luck for Sunday, hope you've sorted it this time but would be nice to know what caused it.

Scarborough- Where To Ride?
Kevin Turvey?, no it's Rick. Here's the first bit of that clip; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qu_2likGlok For those of you brought up on Playstation and X-box, who spend your lives on Myface and Spacebook, spending all your money on glow sticks, the guy in the pub is that bloke off The Young Ones. Copemech will like the Alamo joke.

Scarborough- Where To Ride?
Have you seen "An American Werewolf in London"? The bit where they go into the pub, The Slaughtered Lamb. That should give you some idea.

Interesting 50's Motorcycle Video
Excellent. Bet there were a few dabs during rehearsals as well as the odd 5. (Not to mention the odd stator failure)
