My mistake. I thought you meant the BMW club day yesterday. It was a warm one and a very rare crash fest. Lots of red flags which was disappointing for Rob and everyone else.

There were a lot of silly moves being made. I think the heat was getting to people and they were losing concentration. I had a rider go straight on at Mansfield. Didn?t even brake, just rolled straight up past the marshall post without even a hint that they might turn in.

I originally thought it was a very experimental line. Glad I didn?t follow haha.

Yeah I?ve got a 1200RS as I really couldn?t fall in love with the new S1000R design. It blows 105db with the current slip on, so I?m going to be bringing everything to swap to standard silencer if I need to.

How did sound testing go?

 

[Tim61]

I ended up putting the standard can on before I went. Lucky too as it still blew 103 with that.

Mmm. I'm at Cadwell next month and I was thinking of taking my new bike which has as a race fit exhaust and that was tested at Castle Combe recently.. 99db at 5400, 103 at 5600. I'm presuming that the test at Cadwell is 102 DB at 5500 in which case I still think I'll be fine.... assuming you got on ok with 103 DB

It's the 22nd. Not a proper track day as such, HRT rider training day, although I believe there is free lapping in the afternoon. It's my first time on track since my accident last Oct, and never mind that I am not really fully fit/bike-fit, my arm/ankle are still a long way from recovered, so just interested to see how long I last. I do want to try the new bike on track (yes just an end can), but might chicken out and take the older one, as it'll be slightly less annoying/expensive if I drop it...
