@PiejeMR @Barbter1 @PeterBom4 @GresiniRacing @matoxley @MotoGP Pretty good explanation of Renault's F1 application of a TMD here: formula1-dictionary.net/mass_damper.ht…

@Barbter1 @PeterBom4 @GresiniRacing @matoxley @MotoGP If I understand correctly, the mass that acts like a dampener is suspended in the spring. And it counteracts whatever the subframe/seat unit is doing. So seat goes down, the mass in the dampener moves upward, counteracting with its weight. Seat unit goes up, the mass goes down.

An early version of a Ducati mass damper, seen here at a @GresiniRacing bike in Assen 2021. @matoxley @MotoGP

@RollingAlpha @RollingAlpha it's bizarre, but the same thing is happening again:

@RollingAlpha I get this on Chrome and on Edge

@RollingAlpha is the website still active? I've used the Rent vs. Buy calculator on many occasions, but cannot access it any longer. Is there an alternative link perhaps?

@PeterBom4 @2DDatarecording @matoxley @GPMag_ I'm going to be greedy and ask if there is any possibility of doing a video screen record actually explaining what happened here in further detail. Especially what happened with the fork travel prior to the front tucking. (Now I've given you guys a good idea for Patreon...)

In this weeks "Oxley Bom MotoGP" podcast Mat and I talk crashes. The facts, the emotions and, like in this pic: the Data. Showing here that the front tucked in at 170 km/h and 52 degr banking: dropping front speed before the rear does. @2DDatarecording @matoxley @GPMag_

@CityTshwane Reference 620 of 12/12/2023 update please.

@CityTshwane Update on Your call Ref 1400 of 11/29/2023 please. It's 21 hours without electricity.

@motomatters It also has three forks

- The engine layout is fun. Looks like a staggered triple with the middle cylinder slightly offset forward. Which apparently don't need exhaust headers. - is rider resting hand on tank? Have they even got a left hand? AI, man. Superficially nice, just don't look at the details

Looks good until you zoom in and see what an incredible mess this is: - Why does the bike have 2 sidestands? Why are they both down when the rear tyre is kicking up spray? - why is the indicator hidden behind the number plate? - what shape is that sprocket actually?

@CityTshwane 418/20 for today

@CityTshwane no electricity again, SMS reporting doesn't work says the account number is not found. Previous reference number of Saturday 301/15.

I need an app that tells me if I killed the plant because of too much or too little water.

@CityTshwane Thanks for the prompt action on this @CityTshwane

@bertusras Good morning, noted and escalated for urgent attention.
