on armourall...

Following the advice of a poster on this group, I liberally applied
Armourall to the rear tyre, seat and handgrips of my ZZR250. It looks
great now, but I'm experiencing a new problem: despite the ZZR250's
relative lack of power, every time I twist the throttle (an exercise
that takes far more effort than it used to since the Armourall
application), I slide off the back of the seat and land on my
arse.

Will someone please advise me on what has gone wrong and how I might
proceed? I note that the poster is from Melbourne. Should I have
applied Melbourne Armourall instead of the Sydney Armourall that
I used?

Thanks in advance,

Apply more armourall to the rear tyre. That will help alleviate the
problem with sliding off the seat when applying throttle.

 

We had a bloke turn up at scruitineering once at Amaroo if I remember
right, with armouralled tires on his RG500.... wondered why we wouldnt
let him out on the track. Bike was really bling with everythign
armouralled.

 

Biggus ~ is of the opinion:

Hahaha... I would have let him go, but only after I'd run the book on how
many corners he'd last before throwing it into the weeds.

Had another bloke turn up once with a video camera DUCTAPED to his
forkleg... again couldnt understand why I wouldnt let him out.

Tee hee... You called

Na, Sid Jackson was the spoilsport, he wouldnt let me go out on
armouralled tires AND a camera on each forkleg held on with bluetack
while wearing my speedos..
