Looks like you had a nice day mate. Did you ride it there, so road tyres or put your slicks on?

Yeah faster Bob, still need to sort the front end out. Got some springs coming this week and i've raised the rear to get more weight over the front.

Road tyres Rhan so i rode it there

What group do you ride in?
When I first started doing trackdays (more years ago than I care to remember) most people rode to track , taped over lights and away you go.
Now all but the Novice Group turn up with bikes in the Transit or on Trailer , tyre warmers etc etc.

I invested in a bike trailer as Cadwells 100+ miles from me and can then load car with petrol, pressure gauges etc . If you come off can get home! Its happened to me

Fast group mate normaly, Donington is my local track and i used to instruct there

Donington 22/10/2011 Focused events trackday

Sorry for asking a STUPID question! :-[ :-[ Great video!!

It's not a stupid question

I like the bit beating the 2011 ZX10 down the straight ;D

nice vid matey
can still tell its your pride and joy with your speed down craners : was sure you were about 20 mph faster on your old bike
looks like you had a nice day for it too

Yeah i've play the videos back to back and im slower everywhere on the bmw, it needs the forks stiffening and more weight over the front as it keeps pushing wide and its hard to turn in.

Have you swapped that eccentric washer thing at the top of the rear shock? Did it make much difference?

I did it sunday but i havent ridden the bike since.

You could try a 60 profile rear?

Nice bike, best colours, . Needs a belly pan to fill in the gap where the cat was.

Is yours limited to 186mph? All the others arnt

Yeah i fancy a belly pan but i dont want one that wraps around the rear tyre, if they just finished where the exhaust sits i think it would look alot neater.

How about this bellypan? Its a bit shorter than the others I have seen.
