Bridgestone RS10
Unfortunately I didn't take a picture of it. It was instantly apparent what the issue was when I came back in from the session. As soon as I lowered hot pressures by a couple of psi it cleared up the tyre wear nicely before any damage was done and grip levels improved.

No probs fella. I'm trying to learn some of the nuances of suspension and tyre pressure setup, find your comments very interesting. Thanks.

BMW HP Brake Lever Guard
I ordered my HP Brake Lever Guard back in April and they are now finally available after being on back order for so long. I've used these for several seasons now and there have been a couple of incidents on trackdays where brake lever guards have saved me from some very expensive repair bills. There are cheaper alternatives available but this one matches the HP levers already fitted to the bike and as it's made by Gilles the quality is faultless. Here are a couple of pictures of it fitted...

Beautiful that mate, I do like that lever protector.

Akrapović HP Slip-On Exhaust
No particular reason really. There was absolutely nothing wrong with the Arrow slip-on. That said the build quality of the Akrapović exhaust is slightly better and every part of it, including the supplied link pipe, is made from titanium. I purchased this one by chance as I was passing a BMW Motorrad dealership and they had one in stock along with the carbon fibre exhaust bracket. It was more of an impulse buy to be honest and it goes well with the other HP parts already fitted to the bike.
