jigs getting famous

[Helmsman]

John-  Saw you in Motorcyclist!  I was in the Atlanta airport and needed a magazine to read so picked it up as it was the most "sportbike" looking magazine in the store.  Was a little surprised to run across an article and pictures of you!  Looking good you big time stud! 

This is Will Scholze if you don't know who this is.

Yeah dude...even a blind pig gets a cobb of corn once and a while.I even got the On The gas Award this year,although I think the Mr. Potato Head award is much more dubious,I can only aspire.

[Helmsman]

lol, i was wondering if you were going to ever see this!

[GIGOLO]

Will, you gotta use B.F.L. for John.  Its kind of a necessary now.  Hey are you racing this year?  What the hell happened to your bike,  I saw you coming back on the truck and that was the last I saw.







BTW, that means BIG FUCKIN' LETTERS!!!!!!

Nice Mikey...real nice Our buddy will had a little excursion in T-1 at BHF,we were practicing together,next thing I know he's off in the weeds,brakes or something right Will?? Good to see him standing...bike did NOT look good.

[Helmsman]

gigolo- yeah i am racing this year.  Who are you by the way? lol

Yeah i had a big crash at the last friday practice of the year at BFR.  Lost the front brakes going into one a split second after i grabbed them.  Don't really know what happened they worked after words...can't find anything wrong with them.  I am just going to replace everything i guess!  Bike actually wasn't that bad, destroyed the sub frame busted the fairing stay..cracked some plastic that was about it.

Hi

Brakes aren't something to mess around with - Ask Ron Hix about that :P

[jigs]

10/4 on that one Scotty.....the video looked bad...thank God we wasn't hurt too badly,same corner actually.

Not to steal from John's thunder here:
CONGRATS JOHN

But ever since I saw Hix video - I make a point of checking the brake lever for tightness... Especially on my Brembo Units - The little pin and clip does seem to come loose quite often - I run a piece of safety wire through the center of the pin and then around the front of the master - Just to make sure it can't come loose....

Yeah i will be doing that as well.  I WISH mine was something like that, at least i would know what went wrong!  My brakes grabbed initially, and then the lever came to the bar and i didn't have brakes.  After picking the bike up i had brakes again.  No one that i have talked to has come up with a definite cause that matches what happened.  So i am probably just going to end up replacing the entire brake system.
