How you finding it George? Looks like "very well" from that pic..
Absolutely love it.Took a bit of getting used to. It's very different to what I'm used to. It never really moves about much, it's just smooth, which is odd after the R6! Gearing took a bit of getting my head round - using 1-5 rather than 2-6. Spent most of yesterday getting the suspension set up, then slowly built up the pace today. A few 1:45s which I'm pleased with considering the rear tyre was fked.
Can't wait to race on it!

Bingo!
PMSL I used to hang something shiney off the back of the bike like a new phone/necklace etc to distract her. Open the doors of the van and her eyes went straight to the shiney stuff. Couple of weeks/months later the penny drops and she's not 100% sure if I've had her over or not George29 said:

What size sprockets are you using?

16-49. I have a spreadsheet for all UK circuits though if you want that. However, there has been a mod done to my gearbox to mean it is extremely difficult to find neutral, it's a pain in the arse everywhere but on the circuit. I'd be a bit wary running 1st-5th without it as could easily hit neutral. Front and rear
