Hi peeps,newbie from NW Essex.
Been riding a Blue one for a couple of years now and joining this site just seemed like the thing to do.
Should do about a dozen track days this year,a trip to IOM and maybe a Euro GP round.....just see how it goes.
Anyway may see some of you around,so cheers for now.

Crikey - a Falco-based claiming rule team will certainly put Ben and his hiilclimber Falco in the shade.

welcome to the site
just to prevent people throwing their callipers out of the pram, the search function is located at the top of the forum, pretty much under the r of rider site....
having said that, please do ask questions and do get involved in the banter etc....
(PS I do assume the white stiletto's are de rigour for the track?)

Verrrry nice. The blue OZ wheels could have been made for that bike... The white spring Sachs shock, belly pan, Mille swing arm, double bubble smoked screen, Termignonis, mini indicators and zorst hangers haven't escaped attention either...

And more.....
Both front and rear susupension has been totally rebuilt and setup by MCT at Stowmarket.
Brakes upgraded with 4 pot/pad calipers and radial master,so now it handles and stops well,just got to make it faster.
The change that has affected the handling the most is definately the Oz wheels,unbelievably easy to bang over on it's side now.
