I've sent my go-pro out to Spain, so will get some decent footage, hopefully the faster lads on the faster bikes won't make me look like too much of a twat!!!

Yeah it was ace fun and a fantastic bike.

I've made some tweaks over winter, so it's a shakedown at Mallory on Sunday, then Donny in a couple of weeks then Cartagena again in April. I can't wait.

Still looks great I reckon.

Just having some graphics printed up. Let me know what you think?

Proposed graphics look good. 👍

Needs a better font for the numbers crayon monkey.

Bike looks great and goes well

Greenbank logo could do with a border round it to make it standout better?

Gravel border added.

Cruel, funny but cruel.

Well. After my off at Mallory I got some new bodywork and gave it the graphics treatment before an outing at Donington.

Donington was fun but I had terrible aggressive rebound issues with the front, so I took the forks to Sunni at SW Suspension who confirmed that I had pretty much no damping force.

I'm going with a maxton cartridge set, but in the meantime he's rebuilt them for Cartagena this weekend.

Some up to date images

My experiment that I could be just as fast on this as I was on my KTM has failed pretty badly, but I love the bike so much and I'm having an absolute hoot on it, so I've decided to keep it and spend some money on the suspension and possibly brakes.

Ah, you've discovered that the rebound adjusters on a ZX7R don't actually do anything too?

Well....... Technically they adjust the rotation of the screws, which is nice

Some images from Cartagena with a little vid of my off (another).

Thankfully it was the last day and the bike seemed OK, but will know more when I collect it this weekend. I love riding it although I did have a go on Cos' R1 and M6rk's ZX10...... both are awesome!!

I'd count that bottom image as a wheelie.
