Newbie
 
Hi guys just saying hello.

Had my 1000 multi for a month now, it`s my first Doocati and I love it!

I race in F400 at the moment but fancy doing minitwins and the desmodue series on a monster.







Thanks for reading, talk to you all soon!!

Tantrum992 18-Oct-2005 09:18

Welcome, good choise of ride, miles of smiles :D , normally i'd have a Guiness extra cold with a slug of Jamesons in it but its a bit early for that kind of drinking so ill just have the scotch thanx :devil:

carlfoster 25-Oct-2005 14:39

Any recommendations for tyre choices?

Rushjob 25-Oct-2005 15:00

I know a few folks running on Diablos which they like but having chased Tantrum around Cadwell on his on the standard tyres, there isn't a great deal wrong with them....

psychlist 25-Oct-2005 18:34

The Scorpions that come as standard on the Numpty are brilliant tyres, I've heard that they're the same carcass as the Diablo, which has won many fans through the DD race series so when i wear out mine (done 2k miles and they dont look worn much at all) I'll go with whichever comes out cheaper of the two from Steve the TyreMan at Wraysbury Tyres. Get a good DSC discount there too ;)

Tantrum992 26-Oct-2005 08:57

Cant fault the Scorpions in the wet or dry, and you get pretty good mileage from them too, i was so happy with them that i put them on again after the first set wore up.
I know several people have tried other tyres but i dont know how they compare ( whats your thoughts KeefyB ) as far as cost goes i think the Scorpions are a bit more expensive than others, lucky for me not a problem though as the company i work for get 40% discount at a local dealer as we put all our vehicles through there + i dont get charged the VAT :D:smug: .

Hey Rushjob, how you doin, they were some good laps we had chasing each other round Cadwell :D:D

KeefyB 27-Oct-2005 07:02

When my first pair of Scorpions wore out I tried to get another pair but the price (at that time!) was expensive.The rear alone was £150.I bought some cheap Metzlers from Busters that were ok when new,but wore out quickly and then effected the bikes handling.
The bike now wears Diablo's,they seem to suit the bike really well,and I'm well chuffed with them.

Grantham eh? Give me a call sometime and we can meet for a pint or a cuppa. I'm about a mile from the Roman Cafe.

We're going to be at the George at Leadenham next Tuesday, it's straight after the track day at Cadwell that a few here are going on.

carlfoster 27-Oct-2005 16:22

I`m out for a blast in about ten minutes, I may rip past the roman cafe.

I`m gonna have one last run before new tyres and new screen go on.

bruuum bap, listen for the termis!!

carlfoster 27-Oct-2005 16:24

I`m going for Diablos I think.
