Well I couldn't got a better day for my first trackday, it was red hot!


Have to say it was a little daunting when I first rolled up, dunno whether it was the fact it was a weekend and the weather was so good, but it was like a BSB paddock. all tyre warmers gazebos and trucks. My mate has been to a few track days there now and said hes never seen it like this before. 


we were setup next to Jenny Tinmouth, Peter Hickman was just in the next row, it was an eye opener for me.


anyways I took it very steady the very session, getting a quicker as the session went on. It was amazing how quickly the pace started to come, and I was dragging me boots in all the tight corners, especially the second corner in the woodland section and mansfield. Looking at the photos though there is loads of clearance left on the bike, its my duck feet that are getting in the way.


The bike performed absolutely faultless, including the 3 hour ride home after the day had finished. Handling was predictable and superb - way better than I am capable of, and the power was quite awesome, down the home straight it held its own against seemingly absolutely everything, and pulled canny big gaps on a lot of bikes, so says me rear mounted gopro. shame I was such a soft get braking mega early for coppice. Loved every minute of it though, its taken me the best part of 9 years to do one but will most certainly be doing another! You definitely dont need a out and out sportsbike, there was a guy on a ducati sport classic 1000, and he was rockin! I actually picked him out at the start and said to myself I will see if I can hang onto him - he was one of the fastest guys on the track!

You still doing number plates?

I need one for the Gixxer cos the one on it is undersize and surely an MOT fail

does anyone know where i can get a clear rear lens (and a red bulb) for my 2001 fzs600 ?
don't want to go the led route, just trying to make it look a bit better (black & silver).
thanks

Ive just had a couple of fairing kits refurbished, one in a Yamaha racing 'Speedblock' design & another in an 'RD-LC' twin stripe theme/homage.







Both fairing sets are listed in my eBay shop if you require any further details.

I also have several of the speedblock decal kits in stock in various colours now,

Ive sold a few of the speedblock kits & panel sets, im just waiting to see what response I get to the 'LC' style panels before I have anymore of the decal kits made up, the next set will probably be in the mars bar black & red.

If anyones inerested in any of the above please feel free to drop me a line, I would consider lightly damaged panels in P/X & I can offer forum members a ride in ride out fitting service if requested.
If you are interested in having your bike painted in something like the above please feel free to P.M me.

Whilst doing the brakes today i whipped off the hugger to clean up the chain guard only to find 5 holes drilled through the top of the swinging arm an inch or so apart. From past experience i know huggers can warp and rub so i assume someone decided to spread the tension to pull it square again. Am i right in being concern though that this has seriously weakened the swinging arm?

Hi guys. I went to clean up my calipers and change pads today only to find that the slider pin on one of the front ones is well and truely stuck. Seals are all good and im useless at bleeding brakes and want to avoid completely take it off. Im lamped and tried abit of oil and nothing (and yes i took the 2 R clips off first). Any suggestions that avoid taking it off or paying the shop to do it?

99 (T) Reg FZS600 carb inlet rubbers.

Mine cracked a while back, but are getting progressively worse.  I want a new set on standby if anyone knows of a cheap source or has any to flog.

My usual two weeks tour around Europe has been cut to one week :'(  Any thoughts on what to do or see or good roads. I was thinking of staying around northern France,Belgium,and the Netherlands. Toying with a lap around the Nurburgring and maybe a lap around Amsterdam  .
