Eeeeee my poor old bike dyno'd at a wheezy 53 and 55 BHP.

Although as you know, it did managed 2 wins and came within a whisker of Mr Listers lap record.
Not bad for an old smoker eh.

Power is not everything people.

You were taking no prisoners out there. I was doing 58s laps and you came past me like i was standing still!!

First and second for me with a measly 48bhp!

Don't forget, it was an SAE not a DIN dyno.

Well done, sign of things to come for the year then. What was the results/places with the rest, and how did you find the tyres.

When I rode them last year they gave ore feel and allowed ore confidence pushing into the corners, they did not drop in like the Rosso's.

Thanks Steve.

Tyres are superb, I really mean that. Only downside being that the test day and 2 races wrecked 2 rears. Gonna try a bit softer rear suspenion at Mallory test day.

Only one big slide which Kev Palmer will tell you all about.
