Yeh well i'm not in the least bit jealous of you Tim. No, not even a teeen tiny bit.










Need a flatmate over there in Holland by any chance? I;'m so bored of living here

Nice description Tim. I reckon I'm still slower on the 750 than the 600 as I've just not used it that much. Did you find the course much bumpier now you can hit some decent top end? Surprised me how rough it felt once times came down.

Sparkies, OK for Spanish track days too!

To be honest I didn't feel any extra bumps, but then my SV had quite a stiff front end and wasn't the smoothest of rides, and I have a feeling my GSX-R has been set up for smoothness rather than speed, so after a bit of twiddling I may indeed notice some more.

Also a few bits of the track were resurfaced over the winter.
