The mrs has bought me some California race school vouchers as I wanted to get into track days so I went on the hunt for a cheap track bike.. but what I actually bought was nothing short of a hell of a find..

So what does every one think I should have paid for my bike, bearing in mind it was a px against my s1000 which I wanted rid of.. Cause they are pants!!

Re: Newbie in Norfolk

Nothing else matters then mate, nowerdays it's about being happy with what suits you. My old s1000rr cost me £10'000, hated it. Admittedly the r1 was a only a bit less but so much better even tho it's cheaper! Go figure..
