Rain in February, in Ireland? Who would've thunk it!

Hope you have a great time - and the forecasters are wrong. Most of them here are lucky if they're right 50% of the time.

you right, weather was super, it ectualy was the first day without the rain in about 2 wweeks, what are the chances.
Pretty tired now after 3 hours driving the jeep with a trailer(each way) and 5X20min secions...
Any way...here are some pics..cheers...
By the way, my little bandit was the smallest bike on the track.Every one else was riding from Ducatis to GSXR1000 and some other superbikes.So most of them over took me on stretches.I coudnt even use anything above 4th gear.i think top speed was around 160 or so... Some lads on GSXR's got up to 250km/h...Bastards...

Oh well, i'll do them in tight corners the next time

Judging from this pic, it looks like the pegs will be dragging before the C'stand.

To be honest i didn't even think to check ground clearance at lean angles. . . Didn't drag any parts on the track anyway. Not that good yet. The more i think about it the more i come to conclusion that i'm gonna sell the bike and get myself something biger. Kawy ZX6R, CBR600, GSXR600/750, R6/R1. You can see where i'm going with that. Just loved the thrill of been on the race track. Cheers.

well for a street bike slash track bike a bigger bike is good, why i dont race a bigger bike if you care to know , is racing is expensive, entry fees tires but mainly tires and i love the thrill of superbike light and the people you meet. cheers and best wishes with your new addiction.
