Probably
the most beautiful bike at Zhu Hai at present, in the hands of the most
loving owner imaginable. Nick takes pride in his bike and in his determination
to become this seasons champion. Well Oiled! has been the appointed
mechanic for the last two seasons, and Nick is rather choosy as to who
lays hands on his pride and joy.
Last seasons
guise, from the crate to the track in true gixer style. I believe Nick
stayed on the bike at least 40 minutes before slinging it down the track,
the first time he rode, he learned from a lot of other mistakes to achieve
his current standing as No.2
Not leaving
anything to chance he relies on Well Oiled! to give him confidence
on the track after a number of mistakes from other bike service centres.
Nick being the enthusiast that he is, knows every centimetre of this bike,
down to the finest detail. The bracket pictured carries a sensor for a
datalogging system to show speed, acceleration, deceleration. Also fitted
are an accelerometer, and tachometer which after your ride can be viewed
on a laptop to show ideal laps. Pretty cool piece of kit.
Ready to
rip, this is one serious gixer. Yoshi triple clamps and tri-oval full
system, Dyno-jet programmable engine management, Race Tech gold valved
forks, Ohlins shock, Techtronic quick shifter and datalogger by Farrington
instruments UK.
Odds and Sods by Well Oiled! a little TLC included.
