Yep - many thanks to AK for sorting the baffle situation - I must get myself a cordless drill!!!

The test was at 7-8K, despite my demands for a lower rev test, it was at 106.2db at 7K. The tester was as helpful as he cold be, but seemed tied by the regulations. He advised that I should ride the bike around to warm up the end can as this should reduce the noise!!

Despite doing this, I was still at 106.1 !!!

So fitted a baffle - courtesy of AK, and registered 102.2 - all OK.

As for the day, it was fun dodging between the showers and hale!!! The track does dry very quickly (thankfully), so managed a couple of dry sessions, along with some wet (and cold) weather testing!!!

Bones was riding well, and seemed to really gain a lot of confidence there - he's looking forward to the race I reckon.

I don't like the format of 6 groups of a dozen riders, with 10 mins each. It seems that just as you're getting into your stride - its over.

Numbers attending were low enough to combine our group with another, so we had some additional time, handy setup time.

Roll on June 10th.

Tim
