Some nice lines there. Good I'nit?

Have you been bitten by the bug, if so there is only one known antidote.

Do more.

Top idea removing the bodywork "just in case". :)

Thanks chaps!

I always have the side fairing plastics off, call me odd I just like the look.

I think I may have been bitten by the bug. Next time I'm going to try and get the TL1000s out on track, if it makes the noise limit, it was a bit over.
I'll also take it easier down the straight, so I can get my head and bike set up for that nasty blind dropping right hander. It's a strange corner and feels wierd as the whole bike compresses down on its suspention when you hit the bottom.
 :auto-dirtbike:  :auto-dirtbike:

Having done a track day I feel I'm going to take it a whole lot easier out on the roads. There really is a place for riding fast and it's only £50 away.

Thanks for sorting the link Martin
