Thanks mate. I'm a big fan of the mag and set my ZX7R up as per their setup guide and it handled infinitely better. Could you give me a pointer as to where on the site the guide is located? I have a new bike and can't find my copy of the mag!
You should find it useful Dave, I set my R1 up by it and it definately handled sooo much better afterwards. Riding it on the old settings i had real trouble getting it to turn in, But it now handles like a dream!

As was my 7R - really struggled to turn in. Once i'd set it up properly it handled like an absolute dream!

Good to see PB go back to its roots , was a fantastic mag then went all max power on 2 wheels , more teenage 2 wheeled wank mag than bike mag , Its a shame ronnie smiths not around to contribute to it
absolute nutball that he was , greatly missed , fantastic rider ,

absolute nutball that he was , greatly missed , fantastic rider , 
...and his old sparring partner Gus..
I was shocked at the untimely deaths of both ... real characters of biking journalism and climbed the racing ladder well ...Gus got a 3rd place at Macau a few years back...and Ronnie was on the podium at the TT too...
Sadly missed..
