    You were looking good mate, would have been hard work doing back to back the way ya did !
    A girlfriend once asked " Why is it you seem to prefer to race, than spend time with me ?"
    The answer was simple ! "I'll prolly get bored with racing too, once i've nailed it !"

    Bowls can wait !

    Just cos you got that Sean Connery thing going on doesn't mean you have to gang up with the Scot.

    The bad news for you is that I was faster on the 400. The 400 once upgraded will be insane and double up as my F2 "spare"

    Ah well, it could have been worse. For once I didn't write off my helmet and Drew assures me the bike damage is just cosmetic. Probably should have spent at least 10 minutes on her before trying to race her in F2 :-) I'm debating about changing my flight to a day earlier so I can do the practise day........the flight price penalty will probably be cheaper than dropping the bike again.

    Sean Connery...nah....he's more like Dog the Bounty Hunter if you ask me.

    Is it just me or has that final corner got scarier this season?

    Great read man, I'm told the ZX will be dropped off here tomorrow. It's an easy fix, so it'll be ready to rock and roll next month.

    Nice one Scracha.

    Yes it does have a slipper clutch A bloody good one in fact.
    Yes the brakes are mind boggling.
    Turn that steering damper back down! If it ain't moving you ain't feeling it!!! (Dampers are for pussies - it fell off on that bike and I got my best ever result.)
    That bike likes to lean. And lean. And LEAN! Let it (But on warm tyres perhaps...)
    If you get sick of it and go to sell it, call me! I would like that bike back, the most fun race 600 EVER!

    I cant believe no one has had a real go at you about this comment!!

    More like....

    OR
    "Sex with me is like my racing.... always great till i fall off"

    At least I can understand your write ups Stevie, which is more than I can say in person
