No worries... I'll fill you in with all the details next week...

Just ordered a set of BT021's for the bike before the track day .... If they stick like my 020's on the fz6 I'll be a happy man :thumbup:

Another great track day and managed to keep the new bike in one piece ... I did have 1 or 2 scares today

The RR was freakin awesome and sounds sweet bouncing off the limiter :thumbup:

Nice, man!

Now get that upper body down and inside. How did you like the tires?

Nice pictures.

Did you use those knee warmers?

Very Nice, I bet that Honda is a blast on the track. Good thing it is blue!

Nice pics Jonathan,

Good luck in the play offs, Leeds is already behind in the first leg

Nice one Jonna,

I think the pictures are excellent who took them? The track looks very dirty on the outside, is this where you had your brown trouser moment?
Congrats to you lost the yellow bib.

Hi mate, they have a professional photographer on track to relieve you of £30 for a disc full of piccies for the grandkids :thumbup:

The track was well dirty on the edges mate, def needed a good sweep but the racing line was nice and clean.... Not that I stuck to it

one of the brown trouser moments was when a Blade did me on a long straight, so not to be outdone 2 much I kept on the throttle, I suddenly thought Sh1t this is way past my normal braking point and threw the bike into the corner whilst saying my prayers lol ... The new tyres did the job for me :Flash: with about a mm spare before I would have been grass bound .....

By the way .... The fella on the Blade binned it on the same corner lol

I didn't half chuckle as I readjusted my pants

The tyres were nice Gaz but I was very edgy with them the 1st session, I felt the front slide a little on about my 3rd lap but after that they were fine ... Had full confidence in them ... I do however reckon I should have gone with a softer compound especially as I'm hoping to get on more track days after my Falkands stint .... The difference was noticeable instantly though from the old squared off Dunlops.... They were pants !!!!!
