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! 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.
