Show us your chicken strips!

Midge you got 180 or 190 tyres?

 

180s on mine - standard size for the 2006 S3

 

Was thinking of changing mine to 180's.

 

OK, here goes - remember that I still haven't settled after my scare, but coming down the 'Cat & Fiddle' the other day helped! :smile:

 

Thats quite respectable for an old git, well done you :wink:

 

To be quite honest - it's bollocks. But as I get more comfy they'll go. Promise. x

 

No cheating & scuffing them up with sandpaper! Lol :biggrin:

 

As if - that's really sad. x

 

Funny you should say that & on a similar note.... I use to do quite a few track days when i had my Fireblades & the Aprilia Mille. A mate of mine asked me in the strictest confidence if i would wear his knee sliders to a trackday & scuff them up for him.... What a wanker! Lol.
I accidently let our little secret slip out one evening in the boozer & he still gets the piss ripped out of him even now! Lol :biggrin:

 

My knee sliders are scuffed but that's coz I fell off.......

 

So the helmet sliders look good too?

 

Yeah. If I'm getting my knee down then it's going to be followed closely by my elbow, arse & body... I have managed it before but I have also come to the conclusion I'm not a natural....
If it happens then great...
My self preservation gene is getting stronger as I get older and lacking any natural talent is also a hindrance...

 

Wait till you get to 53!

 

10 years yet. If I make it that far....

 

Eat less cakes?

 

Lol! I wonder how many riders actually get somebody to do this for them?

Ive yet to get rid of my chicken strips, about an inch to go.... But I'm working on it!

Yep no other way to do that safely but it chews up tyres.
