Re: End Can Weights.
already done 60 miles today, and as i'm sure you're aware, that's pretty much all you can do on the island before you start repeating the same roads

Re: End Can Weights.
Yes but they are such nice roads, I remember them well... always liked the Shanklin -Ventor road myself.

Re: End Can Weights.
yeah, that's a good tyre warmer, they recently resurfaced the bembridge to sandown road, only a few miles but nice and twisty and very smooth

Re: End Can Weights.
my stubby has no packing and therefore (Nil weight) lifting my rear suspension, which makes more front end grip ... the exhaust is a counter balance thrusting againt the tarmac.. (high level exhaust) and since the roads around here toward Hartside are mint... then ..
I had a really good day out today. It was totally mint... cheers for asking. over and out
