Trackday project K3

Looking good, really like the rear end

Looks awesome, im just worried your seat is a bit to high, if your not careful you may ruin the awesome weight distribution the sv has with the stock seat.

Don't worry, that was already ruined, soon as my gargantuan frame climbs aboard that is!!

Thanks for that, glad you like!

SOooo, finally we got back out on track, it felt so good to be thundering around Cadwell again even if we had a few issues.

Saturday the 1st, that's definitely what we booked right?
Err apparently not!! We turned up to sign on and were welcomed with blank looks as our names weren't on the list??

After doing the sighting laps we checked email records and it turns out somehow the No Limits website had booked us onto Feb 15th??

A quick explanation later and the lovely ladies from No Limits had us sorted out and for only £16 extra each. Best check those confirmation emails after all!

Anyhoo, Andy was out on his re-worked carby which it turned out had issues with making power and as you may have seen from his thread, we still need to investigate the reasons but high on the list is paint dust contamination of the fuel filter. Sure we'll bottom that out soon and whilst at it we'll try to get the fairings looking a little less pointing up but it still looks great if still in need of the side winglets and maybe a few decals!!

Andy's bike (SVGTI):







My bike was running as per normal, took a little getting used to after the winter break and the new seat but I'm much happier with the leg room and apart from a few cracks in the belly pan from the trailer transportation, she's still in one piece which is the main thing after one or two excursions onto the wet grass, oops!!



This week I shall mainly be getting dirty swapping the fork springs and fitting the emulators with some lovely RSF 10wt to get me some silky smooth action from the front end.

Also good to see Tom Meager in attendance, good luck in the coming season with EMRA, bike looking great!

2014, bring it on!

Got some photos of yours truly from peter wileman's website. Almost looks warm!

Where are you travelling from? It takes us 1hr 45mins from Bridlington, East Yorkshire.
Worth every minute tho!!

Yeah not too bad, you tried Blyton Park, its a tiny bit closer than Cadwell but not as quite exciting!

Cracked on with fork updates today, took out the progressives and the damper rods ready for fiddling with this week.



My workshop: Tight for room!



The new stuff: (Ktech 9.0s & Debrix emulators)
