Not the correct forum but I am in Chennai this weekend and need to change tyres on my R1 and GSX'r. I have tyres but need name and address of reliable shop to replace worn set which i will use to ride down to Chennai. Any help appreciated. -
I'm really sorry to hear that.Originally posted by wonderboy_tm View Post@SVJ : I should be able to walk close to 100% in another 6 months time... I dun think i will ever be track fit again.... Doctors are pretty sure that i should never take another bike again.... Lets see.... I hope to be back on two wheels, probably after recovery i might have to remove the metal attachment...
yeah dude... It is a plate.... an L shaped plate... The Arm of the Letter L is been drilled into my Pelvis and the length of the albhabet is being screwed to my thigh.... I hope you get the picture.... next time i have a crash towards the right, then they might have to replace the ball and socket joint connecting the leg and the hip... and hence the complication.... thats much about it.... I guess I will have to stick with photography from now
Don't worry. I'm sure you will be back in perfect riding form in a year.
Even I had a fracture in my finger (left hand, index). And I cannot wear a glove. So, its a small price, but ultimately, we do what defines us. You will be back.
You get the point?? :D

@stewarch: Check your PM....
I was watching the Faster n Faster Video today and I just wait to get on a bike again... the sad part is that i will have to wait for sometime, so that may be after a year i can get the plate removed to avoid complications if i Crash again....- WonderBoy

Posting a Teaser for now.... Will post more pics once the thread it approved.
Hi Varun(Wonderboy)!
How are you now?
Well, this photo says you had stipped off the tail section of RTR for the trackday. How stable was the bike? Did you notice any marked difference due to the change? Nevertheless I must admit that the bike looks great! I am very crazy about RTR.
I had taken off the rear gaurd(The grab) in my dad's bike for sometime and the bike used to rattle at speeds of 70+kays. But the problem vanished when I installed it back. The bike was very stable thereafter and cruising on highway at 80kays was pretty easy.
Hope you get well soon. Wish you a speedy recovery.Comment

The tail section is weighs not more than 2 kilos i guess... So if you hear rattling sound i guess there had to be some loose plastic part....
I dun see how only by removing the tail the bike would have an effect on handling or on NVH levels.... The bike felt great and i did not find any difference...
See that bike would be less prone to vibes as it has less amount of plastic... It would even help more, if the side pannels and the front attachment was removed...- WonderBoy

Love the pics guys.
I wish we had a race track in Meghalaya as well. The pics makes me feel like getting to my knee while riding, though only my footrest scraps againts the road on curved highways of the hillstations.
The only race track we have about twice or thrice a year is the Motocross dirt track.
Keep up guys.

Hit the Road! And Feel the breeze!
