How much have 100% insured your bike for???

That's another concern some quote £6K but obviously most Duke's are going to be above this value

The company 100% use is the same bloke that does focussed. its simon at motofreight.

His phone number is 07841 376980

or simon@motofreight.wannadoo.co.uk

It is a difficult one, i know it will be insured but obviously a gsxr is cheaper than a duke. I suspect your own insurance would also cover.

Its not as if he a chancer though, he does this for a living for all the companies. The bikes sit in proper made crates and dont move. You also get a pallet space for your kit and bits,tyres etc........although you take your helmet on the plane with you.

How mcuh space is there around the bike etc in a crate, I'm guessing you could quite easily get some tyres in there, spares, tools etc? maybe even leathers...

There is quite a bit of space. If your clever you can strap wheels and tyres to the bike, along with a box of bits etc.....

I understand there is also space for your kit leathers etc.

ride your bloody bike lol
Here is an extract from my testimonials from a guy who came a few weeks ago to the ring !

What a brilliant weekend,The ring is well worth a visit.It has everything from slow to fast bends,uphill downhill, a biker,s dream. I have been doing trackdays for the last 8 years and this was the best yet.I normally do a trackday at JereZ every year but will now change to the Nurburgring.Keith does a good job of leading you there and generally looking after you leaving you to concentrate on the track.The Hotel is very quiet but has good food.Cochem is well worth a visit and has some good roads en route.We can,t wait to get back and have another GO! peter cocks

just do it!

I live in Germany so all the tracks I go on are foreign.
We have some good, well organised track days here and one of the best is Prospeed. http://www.prospeed.de/ . I am at Hockenheim on Wednesday with Prospeed (sponsored by Michellin-free tyres) and will ask if they can translate their website. At the end of the month we're off Mugello, costs for 3 days track time is €419 thats about 284 quid

If your interested I could translate the site for you. Termin means calendar for instance
