The registration is rather unfortunate but will be transferring R4WWR to it soon enough :)

Yep v nice just exactly like mine was before it got 'borrowed' make sure you keep it properly locked up. They're in the top ten of most nicked bikes.. I'm telling you this to be helpful.
Also generally a good idea to block your plate when posting photos.

Anyway have fun with the bike

It's alarmed, in a locked garage with two cars parked infront of it at the moment

Ground anchor goes in on Saturday

I've got one of those. They're awesome. Don't forget to spray a little WD40 onto a cloth and then wipe any alloy bolt heads to avoid any corrosion. The rear shock and brake hose banjo bolts are also usual suspects. This tends to keep it looking much better over time.

Lovely bike though. Utterly brilliant as a fast road or track tool and it will teach you, fast. Good choice.

??Spotted your bike this morning at about 0830h going down the Fen Causeway. Looked good if it was yours.

Enjoy it!

Take is steady buddy, evil little bastards - Bennyboy's an experienced racer, yet his has nasty scuffs down both sides where it's been tarmac surfing. Go easy mate.


(BENNY: Yeah I know, they happened on track, but that hey, he doesn't need to know that )

Actually, it's only scuffed down one side now...I managed to get some panels from ebay.

Oooh, nice one. I've done the same for my 7R - except the new panel wasn't much better than the old, so I plan to repair it and get it sprayed up to match.

WD40 is mainly a water dispersing and penetrating spray and is only partly comprised of oil. A better and more cost effective way to do this is to use any standard oil on a cloth.

WD40 is evil stuff.

PS. Nice bike ... white wheels... you must be a sucker for cleaning Green was bad enough, give me black wheels every time now.

St Neots in Cambs. Used to have an Elise S1 then an Elise S2 and then a 340R. When the 340R became dull I knew it was time to start with bikes
