Then sad news, my frame cracked,  :'( 
I have thrown it down the road a bit mind,,cant complain, its been brilliant nearly two seasons of thrashing and crashing.
Until this I have never fell off a bike but at this you get used to it, but circuits are much safer than roads,  well over a hundred and lose the front on the brakes, slide and slide and see your bike bouncing, jumping down the field,haha,,then get a 3rd trophy next day, good job I had a spare front fairing made up.

Fair,  or not fair ?
We out in the country know nothing of a congestion charge,
My mate in his old mitsushi payer took his wife into London on a Friday and came home on Sunday night,
He got an invoice for entering a congestion emissions zone twice, at £250.00 per trip, yep £500.00 for the weekend.
We never got any notice of this low emissions zone, no letters ,nothing.
This must happen to thousands of innocent drivers,,bad shit really.
