At last some pic's pf my Magny Cours trip, didn't do the track day due to it: A) Pi$$ing down with rain. B) Was an open pit, were up to 40 bikes on the track at any given time. C) Saw the red flags being waved far too much and ambulances going out and D) Was a long walk home if i trashed it :D ...didn't have euro cover on my breakdown :oops:


Just off the ferry, 16 bikes, 350 mile journey ahead :shock: Of which 250 miles was lashing down with rain :cry:

Sorry for the lack of scenic photo's but it was too bloody wet to stop and do the touristy thing.

The 2 other duke's were 748's and the SR4 has a 996 motor in it, the acceleration on the thing was phenomenal, and the sound :shock: The bloke on the SR4 had his topped out at 157 mph along the motorways, and on the track he was leaving alot track bikes trailing in his wake :lol:
Saying that he's had quite a few mods done to it, he also owns a 888 which is immaculate, and a 748 foggy replica just for track days :D ...oh and a mini moto done in ducati gp colours 8)
