The experience left me wanting a taste of the action and after speaking to Cleggy and being in the garage next to Harriet I really fancy getting rid of my RSV Mille and giving this series a try.

I'd really appreciate some help with this if anyone fancies dishing some out, from getting a licence and bike to what to do with it.

Top board name!

I'm sure that you'll be overwhelmed with advice, but I'll chuck my 2p in now:

Class B - 583cc carbed bikes, big grids, cheap race bikes but some spares (new pistons etc) getting harder to find, plenty of racing action, but you might find 50-odd bhp a bit different to a Mille or 1098
Class A - 620cc injected bikes, small grids, plenty of quality race-prepped or cheap donor bikes around at the moment, a bit harder on the tyres with a whopping 60+ bhp, and if you're as slow as me a load of Class B bikes nipping at your ar8e!!
