I hate you lol Have a great day mate, keep it shiny side up, you will be the fastest there with the HRC paintwork god they look good
Cheers boys! Two sessions in... Bit damp but drying up lovely... Only two groups so 20 mins on 20 mins off... Roll on the dry afternoon...
What a top top day! Home at half seven, two hour ride home was a killer... But lovely sunny bone dry afternoon. Got some great footage too. Only downside was having a scrap with a dead badger on the way home, what with my nose cone and now fucked lower fairings and belly pan...The bike is looking shocking! Rotten luck but hey ho. Pretty much need a whole new front end.
Bloody hell Jimbo. What a pisser to end a great day. A lot of the guys are suffering today too. Black Thursday.
Yeah, hoping it's just popped all the lugs, but taken a small chunk out... We wasn't hanging about though, took me right out my seat.... So lucky really.
Sorry to hear about the badger incident, 'Badgers ? Bastards more like !' Hope you get it all sorted at least you had a good time on track
cheers dude, doesnt look major, just all the lugs popped out, hopefully not all of them are broke, small chunk taken out low down... i didnt even have a proper look, just slung it in the garage knackered and pee'd off... way my front end is now shaping up from stone chips and animal strikes - my bike is looking ever more likely for chinese fairing set. mmmm rothmans? (but bit ironic as im the most anti smoker going)
Sorry about your off Jimbo. Some of mine; Odiham July 2011; And Snetterton Sept 2011; The last one has Nutty lookin over my shoulder!!!
Thanks Megs - didnt come off thank god (because i was exactly on the speed limit) and if i did, it could have been bad....just hit it head on whilst it was licking the tarmac...
I feel for you I jumped a dead one coming back from bristol on my cbr400rr, just went light enough on the front to launch off it but when I landed it was a real should I stay or should I go moment..... luckily it stopped its speed wobble and i then stopped for five in a layby, that cracked the lower fairing Would look good in rothmans, even though I hate smoking as well I quit 10 years ago and now cant stand it
