yep still bouncing well although at the age of 45 I don't seem to bounce as well as I use to, the bike bounces better than I do, the lhs fairing has some lovely war wounds but following the repairs in the pits it went backout and performed faultlessly for the rest of the meeting, only getting held back by its rider who wasn't moving about the bike as much as normal.

Only real work needed for Donny is a new number board on the lhs of the fairing the rest I can live with, need to put another spare clutch lever and footrest peg in the spares box and also a spare helmet.

But I will be treating the bike to a oil, filter and cambelt change prior to Donington and maybe looking at getting some new brackets made for the side of the fairing as I haven't any spares for the one I had to straighten.

must add
also thanks to Senna3 for the lone of the 43T rear sprocket, mine was at home fitted to the rear of my class A bike
and also thanks to Bev for the final cup of tea at the end of the day, I really needed that and thanks to your other half Murray for scaring the cr*p out of me in race one when he tried highsiding in front of me at the point I had just recently crashed and again forced me to use the brake tio avoid hitting him, again the tyre screached in protest but luckily Murry got himself together and moved out of the way allowing me to let the brake off and chase off after him with my heart in my throat.
and thankyou Charlotte for the drugs, i'm sure the journey home would have been less comfortable without them.

Isn't this racing FUN
