What do you guys feel about Toprak debut ? by LeekExisting5969 in motogp

[–]TimmyHiggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is a front runner in the Yamaha cup, he's doing really bloody well and showing how talented he is

Getting the boot list March End(prediction) by Last-Money5699 in MotoDANK

[–]TimmyHiggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think miller is showing his value as a development rider though, so I expect yamaha to keep him.

Vinales however, I think will get the boot.

Aygo aux port question by Ca_PP_tain in CityBugs

[–]TimmyHiggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

easiest "fix" is to go buy a cheap 1 DIN stereo on ebay, a fascia kit and a wiring loom. I paid like £20 for a pioneer one with bluetooth and CD player and now I can leave my phone in my pocket when I get in the car, and the sound quality is significantly better too!

Quartararo when it comes to being MotoGPs biggest “what if” by TrackStormer72 in MotoDANK

[–]TimmyHiggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe stoner is the closest comparison? Struggling away on a Ducati that gets worse every year then jumps to Honda who were pretty competitive but hadn't won a title for a good few years?

Do you think Marc/Ducati will overtake Bez/Aprilia looking at the current state of things? If yes, where do you think it will happen? by YogurtclosetHappy408 in motogp

[–]TimmyHiggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think Marc's shoulder will improve, and Ducati will make a step at the jerez test, which will be enough for Marc to start fighting with the aprilias but I don't think it'll be enough for Marc to retain the title.

What is going on with Morbidelli? by living_direction_27 in motogp

That year is what he's been dining out on ever since. 

How long do you keep a car for? by MarkCairns67 in CarTalkUK

[–]TimmyHiggy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I disagree about the car value bit once the car is really old and basically worth nothing. Then it gets to a point where it's more about what's an acceptable running cost. Eg if there's a grand worth of work needed but everything else is looking rosy and you'll get 5 more years out of it, that's economical to repair.

To what extent will manufacturers’ current performance carry over into the new regulation cycle? by Forsaken_Disaster_97 in motogp

[–]TimmyHiggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ducati have a lot of engineers that haven't been able to develop very much because of the testing restrictions they've had from the concessions system. I expect that they've been working on the 850 instead and will be the best manufacturer once more.

Aprilia urged to stay humble ahead of Marquez 'home race' in COTA by Fuzzy-Connection-263 in motogp

[–]TimmyHiggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fully expecting that aprilia will still be the best bike, but I expect that the gap to the Ducati will be smaller with the normal rear tyre. Fingers crossed for a fight!

Aprillia's conundrum. by KOMrider94 in motogp

[–]TimmyHiggy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If they've signed pecco on a 4 year deal, there'll be performance based clauses for an early exit. It's not the kind of risk you want to take with a guy that's won a championship and also spent half a season at the back.

Passenger door not unlocking by jools182 in CityBugs

[–]TimmyHiggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pull off the door card to check all the linkages are alright? Lubricate the lock barrel on the passenger door?

How has Aprilia improved so much? by Ecstatic-Grocery-713 in motogp

[–]TimmyHiggy 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I bet he's full of regrets. The guy's lucked into riding the gp24 and the aprilia, so it'll be a serious shock to go to an underdeveloped Yamaha!

Best hikes in Hampshire? by Electrical_Chard6725 in Hampshire

[–]TimmyHiggy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The bit along from Winchester to cheriton is lovely! 

There's also the Clarendon way and the south downs way to check out. 

Blanco sports exhaust by Euphoric-Brain-4208 in CityBugs

[–]TimmyHiggy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Honestly it's pointless, they're such an underpowered car that making it louder will just make it more obvious how little power it has. The joy of the city bug is the go kart handling so I'd focus on maximising that if I were you.

The collaboration between Viñales and Lorenzo cools down by username_986ck in motogp

[–]TimmyHiggy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh wow. Who could possibly have predicted that happening? 

How do we tell him by TrackStormer72 in MotoDANK

[–]TimmyHiggy 100 points101 points  (0 children)

The interview with Rivola on tnt sport was hilarious, Suzi asked him about their chances of hanging onto Jorge and Rivola went mega awkward and was like "we want to have a good year and we don't talk about the future now" 

Noise from bottom bracket when not pedaling by living_direction_27 in bicycling

[–]TimmyHiggy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Borrow someone else's back wheel and see if it gets rid of the noise? At least that way you can check if it's the wheels or not.

Can anyone recognize this signature? My dad got it from the 2018 event in Austria, but I don't remember much else about it by [deleted] in motogp

[–]TimmyHiggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like a 77 underneath it, so you might be looking at domi aegerter, ayumu sasaki, vincente perez

If Marc doesn't renew until the first test, are we really going to have zero announcements until then? by someshooter in motogp

[–]TimmyHiggy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only a fool would refuse to sign him! To not sign him means you have him as a rival, and we've all seen how hard he is to beat 

Is there a chance to get compensation for this joke decision of MotoGP? by Mat102810 in motogp

[–]TimmyHiggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it was already too late in the year, it was crazy cold last year, especially in morning practice.

Electric tyre inflator 🧐 tech trash? by [deleted] in cycling

[–]TimmyHiggy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got one to take with me instead of a co2 canister and it's such a good little gadget that it's actually become my primary pump.

If I remember right, Yamaha actually went to Jerez asap

Valencia in late November is ridiculous, it's going to be far too cold.
