Hi Janie and welcome, loving the colour of your new bike. Shame about the Vette, but as Clarkson once said "The Chevrolet Corvette - this car handles so badly, you can park it up outside a shop and when you return to it, it'll be facing the other way"

I waltzed across the paddock at Cadwell Park this morning after hauling my lazy backside out of my doss bag (I'd slept in the back of a mate's Transit van). On my way back from the showers, dressed in just a pair of jeans and my trainers (no shirt), I checked the weather station we use to gauge which jetting to run the RGV race-bike on - it was a crisp 5 degC...the weather's picking up at last.

thanks Lozzo! :cheers: I love the color too! I ended up with a flat black helmet and I really like the way it looks with the bike, which is funny because I HATE the look of a motorcycle that is flat black.

The C3's definitely handled poorly. Now my C6 is a COMPLETELY different story. It handles well and is comfy.

Sounds like your temps are similar to ours.

Dude, picking up :?: We are pratically in the middle of summer man. This is about as good as it gets. Enjoy it while it lasts. :lol:
