Just a bit of practice needed. Im confident I can do it, confidence in the tyres and I damn sure know the bike can do it so no worries. Nowt to do with having a fast bike riding fast,all in your head. Thats why Gibernau will never win the GPs, he chokes it :P

No worries! I really do hope I don't manage to do it again!

New clutch lever and indicator cost me £60-ish for genuine parts, I would have looked for used ones but I use the bike for commuting so I couldn't afford the time. For a laugh I asked the dealer how much for a new can. £520 + VAT!!! Must have solid gold internals!!
