749R WANTED FOR T.W.O. TEST

Henners · 15-Jul-2004, 12:43

Jon Urry at TWO magazine has been in touch and they want to borrow a 749R for a day.

It would basically involve a day riding on track and lending the bike to Niall Mackenzie for a few laps so they can get some photos of him on it. Basically a free track day.

If you're interested send me a U2U or an email and I'll put you in touch.

Check the insurance - I recall Hodgeson on a 999 rep (?) earlier this year (?) on the IOM roads and slinging it down the tarmac.

They borrowed my 996R last year, and were OK, don't expect to get any track time during the photo shoot though.

Did we ever get any large DSC stickers cut for this type of eventuality ?? Think Henners was looking into it at one time.

They used my RSV SP for a test of Aprilias in the August 2002 issue, Glen Richards was the pilot, he promised to take it carefull being a ncie chap.

Lying B*****d every time he came up to the corner he had it sideways smoking up the rear.

Good fun day though.

The agreement wasIf they drop it they pay

And do you leave with a nice big goody bag?
New tyres, free subscription etc.
It would be good to have your bike set up by Niall though.
