I rode to donny in the ZX10R the only trackday I've done there. It was wet.

Road legal or not, it has to be better trailering or vanning it there. Just in case like.
Significantly faster than you.....

i suspect logic in riding it there is you are much less likely to chuck it into the gravel if you know you have to get home on it again
i know it keeps me slow as shite when i do track days  :rofl:

I read the road bike only days as being more chilled out, more "gentlemanly" and hopefully more controlled with regards to overtaking and on track etiquette.

I'm probably hugely wide of the mark 😂

Shame they don't do one at Anglesey.

It's some other cunt running into you or knocking you off you can't do anything about.

Dicko's done a couple, pretty much word for word what he said......... Lot's of PAJ's, much more respect given.

I'm pretty paranoid about dropping the MV so I know I'll keep things steady.

I remember those two scouse idiots at your valley day.

Tempted on Novice,  Could be fun on the Zed to get a feel for her properly in a safe environment.
I found my '05 Z750 just didn't give me enough feedback from the front on track. That's something I didn't really feel on the roads. Was still great fun, though.

That doesn't sound like the way of the Ninjas - red flagging every session is more like us.  :rofl:

Shes in with JHS getting the front forks serviced and up-rated with K-Tec springs so fingers crossed.
