Re: Howdy

Got some pictures finally, she ain't too much of a looker but hell of a ride. First ride at a wet and foggy Brands Hatch yesterday and I have to say that I loved it from the first lap, great bike. The 16,500 RPM red line is a bit of an eye opener in the wet for the first time. http://i1314.photobuck...

Re: Hi

Just because someone may not have ridden a specific corner before, doesn't mean they don't know in general how to take a corner. It is pretty elementary that the fastest way around a track is not be to coasting from half way down the straight instead of using your brakes a hundred meters later. Ther...
