Minor tweaks on a DD bike (in fact any bike) mean c**k all compared to putting the ride time in.


Would love to be able to get track time, was thinking that sat on the line at Oulton, unfortunately the only time I had ridden the bike previously was a couple of wobbly laps at Sntetterton, and then the track day at Oulton before race day with me sitting on the line thinking........ track time, track time, track time. Problem is I live in Oban on the west coast of Scotland, my nearest track is Knockhill and the weather is still bad up here (even had some snow today). So for the time being I have to satisfy my enthusiasm with looking at some tweeking and learing about bike set up etc. But as soon as it stops bloody raining will be a regular at Knockhill!
