Ben,
Nice to know you're still using the Falco regularly and the RG500 sounds very interesting! Let us know how you get on with that, particularly if you do run at the Thundersprint. Had some happy memories of 2-strokes in a previous life, although nothing like a tuned RG500, had enough trouble keeping smaller ones from seizing! Did learn to have a lightning reaction on the clutch hand though.
As for the bright colours on the new site, you don't need to wear sunglasses. :smt004 :smt004 :smt004
You can change the screen if you want,
try this -

Click on the "Profile" box at the top of the screen.
Scroll down to the bottom of the profiles and about three lines up is a box called "Board Style".
Change this to "subSilver"
Then hit the "submit" button right at the bottom.
You'll find it looks just like the old site when you've done this, but you can keep the orange if you want!
You also use this Profile area to change over for British Summer Time, by using the "Timezone" box, just below the Boardstyle.
Should currently be set at GMT+1 for summer time.

Cheers,

Howard

Ahh, that's better. Thanks Howard! That scheme feels just like home. Weird how we get used to something and then find it difficult to navigate when the colours change... Ahem, well I did anyway... :smt053

All being well, the RG and I will be racing at the Thunder Sprint. The mag is a bit behind the rebuild at the moment. Currently, the bike is ready to go back together, apart from the engine (and a couple of bits that need painting. I'm off down to rebuild it with Stan Stephens on Monday. So, all being well, I can start putting the bike back together next week.

The only things that'll stop me being at the TS will be if there are any unexpected problems on Monday with the engine rebuild, I don't get it run-in in time, or I have to move into my new house (which might be the Thundersprint weekend). If do get it done in time, then do come up and say hi.

The picture in the latest issue is exactly the state the bike is in at the moment. There's a frame, suspension, wheels and brakes. Just need to put it all back together.

The Falco on the other hand is still running well and I'm enjoying having the ability to move the bars according to the type of riding that I'm doing. She's a good girl.
