    Race bike Progress Report

    Done a bit to it.
    Still got to have a decent paint job, which will be done after rd2 of the Winter series.
    Couldnt get it done in time for this weekend, so am putting up with it fr another round.
    Has always run great, so only have to make it look pretty.
    Have an Ohlins rear shock yet to go into it too.

    Don't forget the velcro number plate so you can practice on the hill!

    Will you be back Sunday?
    Some things are worth dying for, living is one of them.

    All the best for the 17th. Looks like you have a good support crew hanging out the lapboard for you.

    Might grab a couple of spaycans and put some colour on the SV as I'm getting tired of gelcoat white now.

    Was at the track on Saturday learning the bike a little better.
    Doing consistant lap times now, and know where on the track i need to improve, so working on those points.

    Was good having young Dan and co with the lap board. And also to tell me to pull finger.
    Theres no problem with speed. Ive just got to sort out my braking markers.
    Either way, this bike is sooooo fun to ride its just silly!
    No regretts at all!

    Cool bike,
    I was in feilding on Saturday too, at an auction. I could hear the bikes, I was very jealous. Had a little panic attack thinking I had the wrong date for the vic series. Sounded like there was a few bikes over there? What times did you get down to?
