AMBA,

 

If you want to start improving and enjoying your ride. You better start thinking seriously. About everything you have been doing. And what you have been telling us on this thread. This has got nothing to do with riding technique or machine performance. I'm sorry, don't mean to sound blunt.

 

Have you though about why the bike is "horrible" and giving so many problems? Please stop blaming the road or the bike. The bike deserves to be treated with more respect and not throttle abuse. The Throttle needs to be respected. If you're intending to stay safe and make it to a class2. Now it is the time to start getting it right.

 

We can't stress any more than we already have. The RIDER plays an important part in riding. Your mental condition affects your behaviour. Your mentality towards riding as well. What you do reflects alot about you inside.

 

This is an appeal from all of us..

 

Please take some time to ponder on what we have said. I think a lot of people have been trying to tell you something.

 

Ultimately, it's up to you to decide to stop and make a change. Choose WISELY!!!!

 

I sincerely wish you well. Thank you.

Sighhh...NeverMIND MaryJane! U obviously dunno where i'm coming from or what others here have been trying to say all this time. I frankly do not care what the heck he calls you, his opinions or even yours. Must i spell it out? maybe i should and perhaps you can actively influence his reckless behaviour knowing our side of the story.

 

ANyway, SAndman sums it up pretty good for us oredy. It is the general sentiments of the SBF RVF community over Amba...his mentality and attitude towards biking albeit some comments are alittle 'less nice' in a humourous way. But thaz only for subjecting us to the tortures of his crap boastings all this time.

 

SOme are laffing thier heads off thinkin he's a cartoon (actual words), some are mad over his over-fed ego, some just cant stand his boastfulness.

 

But without a doubt, i think all here are concern about his safety over a varying degree.

 

SO FOR his Longevity and maybe even yours and also the safety of other innocent road users (like the little kids that may walk around the carpark where he scrapes footpegs into DAILY).....

 

Heed the advice of the Sandman.

[ambasnakeman]

just figured out something on setup. maybe u guys know this already.

 

the footpegs are almost inline with the swingarm and centre of the rear rim.

 

when wheel position is adjusted, the swing arm goes higher away from the centre of the rim, lowering the bike. like drawn on the blue diagram, thats like stock. where the swing arm is higher from the centre.

 

the red diagram shows the swing arm inline with the centre(normally after some chain tightening).

 

both are at same angles but realise that the red is already touching the floor.

 

i just changed my chain 2 days before the accident and the mech reset the wheel position. i saw a huge chain in height. but was not aware of the difference its gonna cause during cornering.

 

i went past the corner before the accident and was not able to scrape. on the day of the accident, acc to katakiller he saw sparks. i must have pushed the bike to hard, and should have run out of tire to accomodate the sharper corner

[ambasnakeman]

in all, the acc wouldnt have happened if i had ride like a normal human and not wanting to be rossi.

 

but then again, i am a cartoon. i deserve that and the accident. learning lesson. dont push till u know ur bike inside out. i think mine was a trial and error at a painful price

[Xiao_Di]

snakeman do u know how much u need to spend on repair

[ambasnakeman]

close to 2k
