I was hoping to do a training day there but it’s 492 quid. Bit steep for me this year but maybe when I’ve a couple of track days under my belt I’ll give it a go, just for the confidence factor afterwards

Keep meaning to book something.

Are you guys aware of the brake lever changes? If so what've you done/will you do to your SV? I've not looked into it much

Is it everyone or just No Limits? I'd forgotten about that

The brake guards are cheap and easy to install, the one I’ve seen goes in like a bar end weight. MSV make you have them, which is a lot of the tracks, not sure about no limits

Cheers Damo - I'll have a google. Was a bit worried it would be end weight - no idea what bars I have on the SV but I know they're slimmer than most and quite rare. Hopefully a universal jobby will do it.

I saw it was definitely No limits, didn't think they'd do it unless they were made to/everyone else did since they're generally pretty slack - sounds like it's all

I've done nothing yet, fancying Brands full circuit again TBH. You're caning the SV there but there are so many fast bends, nothing like you'd ever get on the road. Cadwell is great, different though.

Sorry Silverstone not Brands. I did go to Brands once for the full circuit, nice but a bit strange, exits of bends open right up so if you had loads of power you could use all that. Never really figured it out.
