I'm on a 583 and here are a few of the reasons why. 1, its cheap, bike on the race grid for £1850 2, prices originally banded around for the 674 BB kit were costly 3, No head work was allowed and your not going to catch me spending alot of dosh on a BB kit if I can't match the squish and get the flow rates to match 4, a tuned 674 would also need trick carbs again a added cost 5, All the 620s I saw at the time were outside my budget and my budget was set on what money I had left after selling my 748 racebike 6, I'm not bothered about winning just want to be one of the top 583s out there and try and put it over on a few 674s and 620s As I said keep it cheap keep it simple, spend £2k on a bike and go and have some fun. Best Cadwell lap for me was a 52.5 and if I could have fitted in more laps I felt as though I had a 51 lap in me. I'm happy with that, I know I would have been faster on either a 674 or 620, doesn't matter at leat I felt motivated and had some fun dispite the crash and zero points. |
