Are you trying to be modest or take the **** because I'd say you had the best year ever racing on her with 3 wins.

now we know what she is capable of, with a better rider who has less to move...hopefully a few more cups this year for the new owner

4 wins was enough for 1st or 2nd this year, and Matt won it with just 3 last year. Its a great series for individual racers.

Is there a 620 in that empty space yet Paul ?

and the official results sheets show one on Sun at anglesey - the one many said was worthless and didnt mean anything to whether I could win a race or not

on its way...well found one anyway but not spoken to seller for a bit...

thanks Bradders, nice to meet you today. Had a few mishaps already...

my fancy new strap snapped on the rear of the bike! No damage and managed to limp home with just the front straps. Already got my money back from halfrauds.

Then got home to find I'm locked out of my new garage (only got the keys this morning!!) due to a dodgy door lock. Bike and trailer are parked outside in the rain now

Nice one Paul and Steeevvvooo I hope your luck changes before you take it to the track

as for anyone after a 620 there are a few on Ebay at the moment, a breakers in Gloucester have a CAT C one which is cosmetics and runs going for £1195 (I offered £900 but got turned down) then there is a 620 dark with no bids starting at £1100 and another 620 Monster this time with twin discs at just over £1100 with about 5 bids so far

Well, it didn't mean anything in the championship It has nothing to do with proving you could win a race (you have proved that since... And you did win that race)... But do you hand on heart believe if everyone had stayed for Sunday you would have still won that race that weekend?

Maybe winning That race was what gave Paul the confidence to go on and win the others

No the new owner of my bike will kick some butts. Good season in prospect for class B and class A.
