Better to not put anything through the fence at all, especially with bear around

Quick intro: I live in Newcastle upon Tyne, but I am a Yorkshire man born and bred!

My first big bike was an Kwak ER-5, then a cbr600fy, then a cbr900rr-s, and after killing it at Croft last October, I have got an sv650!

The reason for getting the sv was that I wanted a v-twin, and there was a guy on an sv650s, who was up my backside constantly...so I thought it was about time I shoudl learn to ride!

So, thats me!
Camel, see you've made the leap then, sorry to hear about the 'Blade what happened to it at Croft?

Off to Croft again on the 4th July, see here:

Hope to see you on a ride out or track soon.

Chees Tim - you got an honourable mention in my original post!

I've not got any Croft dates booked, but I've got Cadwell booked for April 14th! Always wanted to do Cadwell!

I went back to Croft in October, and was feeling a little confident on the blade. I was heading down the back straight, and took that right hander, at shall we say, WAY TOO FAST!

Lost the front end basically. And that was the end of the blade. But I was only Pirelli Diablo's - not a track tyre, so we'll put it down to that!

I wasn't literally up your backside

Cadwell is good fun on the SV, got my eye on that date depending on weather and work....

Welcome to the forum. Ignore the rabble, I'm mostly harmless.

By the way, is that a hump on your back? If not, do you want one?
