Just been for a very good hoon on Strouds street bike aroung New Plymouth

My first real good hoon since my big one 6 months ago, wow, I love bikes, especially ones as cool as this one.

Thanks for getting me to build it Andrew

Any other Suzuki owners want some of my knoledge?

what can you do with an RF shaun? (apart from anchor use..)

A bit wet unfortunately. I got in three sessions before they called it a day.
Was good for the wet riding confidence I guess.

Yeah were glad we headed home after two sessions in what turned out to be very heavy rain in places.

Yeah, I didn't see it but they said there was a fair bit of surface water pooling on the extended section.

Was fabulous fun there today despite the lack of

Thanks Chris and the team for another well run day

Thanks to all the riders who came along. Although it turned out a bit damp, a good day was had by all.

Suzuki have confirmed more days for 2008. Seperate thread to follow.

Yeah a Big Thanks TrackFun (KiwiRider) and Suzuki for running another awesome day. Despite the weather being a wee bit wet it was an awesome day

Good fun riding in the wet on a "new" bike

. Probably the best way to learn to be smooth. Was also interesting doing a back to back comparison from riding on racetecs to wets. Amazing the difference they make - certainly opened my eyes to how fast you can actually ride in the wet.

Biggest problem I've got now is wet gear to dry out

Looking forward to the suzuki trackdays next year
