Newbie from scotland

Hi folks

I'll be acquiring a 4xv R1 soon enough from a mate which I'll be using on track,well that's the plan anyway but I might use it on the road as well.

I've got a C2 9r for the road so the initial plan is track and track only for the yam but I'll see how it goes.

Cheers
