I will be back for part 2 in march

    I saw that wee oops unfolding...I'd caught up to the group you were in and I was setting up pass on the exit of that corner...next thing I see you going wide and onto the dirt, I buttoned right off cause I though you were done for...wicked tank slapper...then somehow you managed to get it under control and off you went again.
    Very impressed I was...I even came looking for you to shake your hand...but could only find the bike.

    And to think when I first met you guys I could leave you in the dust.

    Thanks to the the Central districts club for putting on an awesome event, had SO much fun

    I was entered into the 'Race' class on my 125GP.

    This was the second time out on the bike, had ohhh so much fun.

    First 2 sessions my bike had a horrible miss at topend, and i was geared Way to low, after the help of a kind 250GP rider, i had the bike going sweet, and changed the gearing.

    In the third session i got MudBoy to time me, and got down to the 1:21s, was really happy with that.

    Although i was not timed later in the day, I would comfortably claim a 1:18- 1:19

    Awesome stuff guys

    haha, i ran off the ripples, hit some big bumps in the grass and bars started slapping. I kept the arms loose and tried to relax and I thought I had it under control but the bars were still slapping and speed up which was then when I thought that I may go down, in a big way. but hey presto it stoped, i got back onto the track and away I went. I could have made the turn but just didnt like the look of ripples looming and stood the bike up. lessoned learned. thanks for your comments

    I had that happen to me the first time i was on a track.

    you just have to forget the outside of the corner and look where you want to go and push the bike over more.

    cbr's can handle a hell of a lot more than what you think they can.

    they are a grate little bike
