Snetterton 3rd May
 

Track bike is finally in a state where I can think about track days.

Looking at 3rd May at Snetterton providing I can get time off work.

£99 with No Limits, anyone else fancy it?

Re: Snetterton 3rd May
 

Cool. Hopefully see you there then. Are you in inters?
After fitting my r6 throttle the the bike now ticks over at about 4k! Think some adjustments are needed heh

Re: Snetterton 3rd May
 

Just booked into inters as well :)

Re: Snetterton 3rd May
 

Nice one bud, see you there

Re: Snetterton 3rd May
 

One of the best track days I've been on. Perfect weather, not a single red flag all day, only 20 or so bikes in each group, and the SV almost behaved itself. Even had a fan arrive to spectate.

Only downside was the strange bloke I was sharing a garage with who kept insisting I overfill my bike with oil ;)

It was a fantastic day mate I really enjoyed myself, I still can't believe there were no stoppages, think that's the first time its ever happened.

Its a great track when the weather is warm & hot.

Just waiting for a suitable date so I can go and play

Re: Snetterton 3rd May
 

Nice to see that the Sv is still passing the faster & bigger bikes on the corners, you did a nice couple of overtakes on the outside :smt038:smt038:smt038

Re: Snetterton 3rd May
 

Its such a fun little bike in the corners I just love it, thank you sir! I always try to be respectful of the person I am overtaking.

But of footage of some nutter determined to rear end me!

Re: Snetterton 3rd May

Re: Snetterton 3rd May

Don't forget to check your engine oil before heading out :grin:.
Enjoy bud.

Re: Snetterton 3rd May
 

That looked like fun. Not busy either :cool:

Re: Snetterton 3rd May
 

Did you go? how was it?

Re: Snetterton 3rd May
 

Meh

Booked into inters but decided to move down to Novice as there were half as many in that group. Felt like a god overtaking litre bikes on the outside and was thinking about asking to be moved back up at lunch.

Then on the session before lunch I very nearly highsided it. Poor throttle control and over inflated tyres. Completely destroyed my confidence and I wobbled around for the next couple of sessions, got a bit of confidence back for the last 2 sessions but wasn't riding anywhere near as aggressively as I was in session 2 and 3, although I was still overtaking a few bikes the others in the novice group had sped up too. I thought I was slow but looking at the camera, the lap times were about the same.

Think I may have learnt something lol.

Brown trouser inducing footage.

Nice save bud!! then straight back on the gas good work, that is a horrible corner

Re: Snetterton 3rd May
 

Man, you should be parading that as a Marc Marquez replica controlled slide rather than a near high side!

Re: Snetterton 3rd May
 

Meh. Marquez has traction control. I did it like a man!
