I reckon we will cope ok, bit of learning, I maybe wrong but I think the corner speed is approx the same as 583's, they are just faster in between the corners.

That's what I thought when I left Class B - unfortunately reality didn't bear this out.

PS Anyone got a pic of the front of Ron's bike? When I looked over my shoulder it always was so far behind after the 1st couple of corners that I couldn't swear I'd recognise it.....

I don't have a photo of it, but I do have a lasting image if it seared into my mind from the moment before he ran me over!

There are SO many things I could say, but I'll settle for the "I'll never catch the guys in front, so let's save fuel by slipstreaming"
