I went to the Dunlop Cup Round 3 held in sunny weather. This time, I was running with ZRX1200R + new tires, front and rear of Q5. In fact, it was a ZRX1200 that I had never ridden in Q4, so I had no idea about the air pressure or the characteristics of the tires […]

This time I made SSB for Indian FTR1200. Is this car easy to start with? I was thinking, but it was a vehicle that made me think outrageously. The bolts I use are also made in America, and the pitch is quite different depending on where I use them. I spent a lot of time […]
When I was riding the GSXS1000, my rival’s vehicles started to become lighter and lighter, and I got fed up with the situation and decided to win the championship and quit SB in 2018. I have decided to return with the heavyweight ZRX1200R. Since then, I’ve been fighting with Ninja 400 for 4 years, and […]
I don’t usually run tandem in a gymkhana, but this time I wanted to ride a tandem, so I ran tandem for the first time in a while. That’s why there is no video and it’s rare, so I posted it. Running is what I want to ride, so I tried not to go too […]
ZRX1200R, I’ve been able to enjoy it very much. . As a rider, I am very happy. And running with Road Smart 4, which is a touring tire, raises the rider’s skill. That’s how I feel. I also feel that the slide control is even more accurate. Yesterday, I compared the times of the ZRX1200R […]
I would like to explain the throttle work at the end of H2 of the JAGE cup the other day because it is interesting. This is a video that shows you what to do when you open too much and slide too much in the attack state where you want to accelerate even one step. […]
I don’t think I ever had the talent to ride a bike. However, I love motorcycles more than anyone else, I love riding, and I’m about to turn 60 now. When I was around 20 years old, I was running on a mountain pass, and I thought I was good at it. . However, in […]
This is a continuation of the previous one, but in the first heat, I twisted the accelerator past the point where I thought I would lose the grip of the tires, so the bike didn't move forward well, and the change in posture caused a big loss of time. was in a state. [embedded content] […]
It’s something I’ve written all the time, and it’s a duplicate. .. Gymkhana now costs a lot of money. .. Tires that cost tens of thousands of yen per set will be reduced in a blink of an eye, and the performance will decline each time heat is applied. .. It’s a tire for circuits, […]
One of the purposes of this time was to enjoy the Sanriku Coast for the first time, and to go to the site of the Great East Japan Earthquake and tsunami and feel it with the skin. I wake up Kuji at 4 o’clock and start running at 4:30. The first destination is Kitayamazaki, a […]
During the Golden Week holidays in May this year, my old wounds hurt and I could hardly ride a motorcycle, so I fell asleep. why? Does your ankle hurt? The problem. .. Isn’t it gout? I thought about it, but the doctor’s judgment is not gout. It was decided that it was a pseudogout that […]
I always get up at 4 o’clock and leave at 4:30. .. I wanted to say that, but I’m feeling sick from the morning. .. Doesn’t it make you feel uncomfortable rather than waking up? By the way, I’ve had a little pain in my stomach since I was watching the Tsugaru shamisen concert yesterday. […]
I’ve run out of solo touring all over Japan, but this time I went to the Shimokita Peninsula, which I hadn’t been to by motorcycle yet. A timeless pattern of finishing work on Friday and then starting the move. This time, there is 800km to the entrance of the Shimokita Peninsula, so I planned to […]
Yesterday I ran with Tomin at a collaboration practice session with SRTT. In order to build my own way from now on, I put on the Road Smart 4 on the ZRX1200R and ran while checking each one. Of course, if you run unreasonably like a high grip tire, you may slip, but if you […]
I watched the video of the JAGE Cup the other day, and everyone is fast. It’s just awesome …. in all the wrong ways. But, I was worried again. It’s a soliloquy of a gerontocracy rider on the verge of retirement, so it doesn’t matter what you think, but I think it would be nice […]
I think it was more than 20 years ago, but I made various plans while drinking with my fellow Gymkhana riders. For example, it would be interesting to have a figure 8 GP at that time, and if you could run with the same standard anywhere in Japan! I planned and created it with such […]
I worked in basketball when I was young, and since I was 27, I’ve been working hard at Gymkhana. Naturally, it was a fight against injury. At this age, when tired and burdened, it began to appear as pain in old wounds. The biggest problem is swelling and pain in the left ankle. .. You […]
It’s been 3 years since I started riding the Ninja 400. .. If you ride this much, you will understand the good and bad points of this machine. Weaknesses can also be seen. It seems that Kawasaki, which maintains a certain level of performance while reducing weight without using expensive parts or materials, seems to […]
What should we do for this year’s consecutive holidays? I was thinking about it, but I decided to go touring this morning. I have already booked only the ferry from Monji to Osaka Nanko on the 7th. .. Do you want to go around Shikoku on the premise of riding this? Do you want to […]
After the first round of the Dunlop Cup, I measured the weight of the vehicle as it was. Front 79 kg Rear 72 kg Total 151 kg The result was that. The equipment weight of the catalog data is 167 kg “Gasoline capacity 14 L Engine oil 2.3 L Cooling water 1.3 L” Maybe it […]
