  1. It's fine I can smack him round the chops when I see him next


    Just wanted the formula - and to understand , how does the unsparing weight affect it ;)

  2. Well it must be, coz the fella inside is only 13st... ;)
     
  3. Thanks everyone...now I realise that with my gear I weigh more than my multistrada!:Bag:
     
  4. It's all logic really.........If you are a fat b*stard, your bike will be slower than a lighter rider.;)

  5. You mean if you were Bradders, or a 10 stone Bradders, the 10 Stone Bradders would be faster - some fat riders will be faster than slow ones.
    There will be a limit when a slighter frame becomes detrimental, like just less than the lightest Moto GP rider perhaps...
     
  6. :)

    Even downhill, with gravity assist?


    :)
     
  7. Bradders isn't fat..............he's compact............like me...........

    Everyone wondered why I could get more out of their bikes than they could, and I guess the same applies to Bradders (until he falls off;))
     
  8. I finding being harder to kidnap helps on go kart days, when officials are looking the other way I find it easier to off other drivers into the tyres.
     
  9. Didn't say he was, rider is the biggest factor - same rider lighter would be faster to a point
     
  10. Any more and he'd be a black hole.
     
  11. He's obese, morbidly probably, but can still do a 1'50 around cadwell with a 0.17 hp per kg ratio ;)


    Although a 10 st one may well have done a '47..
     
  12. And I led Foggy into Russells with the photo to prove it.......beat that.........
     
  13. 1 Hour 50 mins? Jogging?
     
  14. Scott's? :Wideyed:
     
  15. Arse hole? :Hilarious:
     
  16. Exige, you dont know that a ' stands for minute then? Plummets in the intelligent stakes there...and if it was comic effect, if all the info is in the statements it doesn't work

    Hth ;)
     
  17. Russell wasn't amused
     
  18. As you only raced sidecars, that is some feat...
     
  19. sorry :( but my Scott Russell's arse hole joke redeemed me surely :)
