50/50 I think. I definitely am afraid of launching it but I don’t have the same respect for my 1098R, paradoxically!
Have a blast tomorrow guys I was booked on but due to recent circumstances had to pass my place on. Great weather forecast, stay shiny side up
Weather looks ace. Hope you all have/had a grrrreat day!! I'm booked on at Silverstone which I'm looking forward to hugely! @NoGutsNoGlory @Sonic @nelly Did you go? Great day??
Not me mate. I'm avoiding anything bike related so not to remind me of the Aprilia sat in the garage with a poorly engine.
1st flying session at Aragon 180+ mph on the back straight, puff of smoke out of the exhaust loud clattering from the engine and urgent service showing on the dash......no shit sherlock.
Knackers! Sorry to hear that mate. Cases ok? New engine or rebuild job? At least it didn't spew its oil all over your back tyre... At 180mph You wouldn't have been walking that off...
Exactly. The cases are intact and it is booked in on the 13th June for diagnostics so I have started saving as I know whatever it is it won't be cheap! When fixed it's going and I will be buying a new R1 or BMW not sure which yet.
Not a lot of info on how the day went... All good? I was booked for this... lucky I didn't postpone my epic tour to fit it in as I have no track bike now!!! I'm just hoping @nelly don't Muller me with the ss work and can sort a 749 cheap as fuck coz I'm booked on the Silverstone DUC day.... I like nelly...he likes me... I bought him whiskey.. ( he probably don't even like whiskey) ( and to be honest my brother paid for it)...
Been a great day, perfect weather, and had loads of fun. I was on the Diavel in the Novice Group (only Diavel in that group). Was not sure how the bike would cope with a track day ..... it did brilliantly. Managed to surprise myself and quite a few other bikes. Only issue I had, was running out of ground clearance on the right. Managed to scrape the foot peg, brake pedal and exhaust.
