No I never, in the corners I was fine on the straights my bike would bog down in limp home mode due a faulty exup valve, I had to short shift, everything would go streaming past me or catch me up. Even 600's I couldn't get near on the straights only in the brakes

Get yourself the Tuneboy software (Free) and the lead (10 quid ebay) and get the bike sorted. Ditch the exup valve and air flapper and disable /clear the CEL. Even try different maps as you have the Arrow silencer fitted.
Well worth it,

Anyway, knockhill this saturday. I'm not religious but even i'm praying for dry weather.

He introduced himself on the phone as "hi, i'm alex, i'm not as much of a dick in real life as on pistonheads"

[Biker's Nemesis]

Fkn slap him twice for thinking we don't know what he means and again for not knowing what we mean!

Parkitt are usually there. £45 for set up.

Croft is a top circuit, bit bumpy but the back section from tower to sunny out is awesome.

I'm gutted I can't make it. Have to go away with work instead

Some onboard footage of my first time there - http://youtu.be/ghNxlzCG_QY

Not the best but might give you a rough idea where to go. The last corner (the ridiculously right hairpin) is absolutely wk by the way. One of only 2 bad corners on the circuit imo. The other being the one going into Complex which feels like it has a massive dip in the middle of it. Great track though I'm sure you will love it.

Oh if it's wet stay off the concrete patches too.

Ignore turns 1 and 2, someone dropped oil on the first session
