If I was happy with my suspension Id probably be game... whip the plate off and go hard

Doing some tweaking tonight so some sedate riding to see how it goes.

No Mikey adjusted my suspension so the rotary dampener only works on rebound and not compression.

Results in feeling like 2 wheel drifts while taking long corners at 160+

Ok probably wouldnt.

Unbreakable rules for ATNR. --DON'T go OHH shit the lead rider went down the wrong road --and try to pass 30 other bikes to get to her.Especially not on a 27 odd horsepower nekkid twin thats seen better days.
Dont whilst trying to catch the lead rider actually PASS her as she is marking a point.
DONT spend half an hour wondering why in heck you CANT catch said lead rider whilst being chased by a green kawasaki 636.
DON'T think to yaself--"heck Ill give him a run for his money" on said 27 HP no fork oil bucking bronco.
Dont be embarresed when you realise NOONE is actually in front of you except for that dratted 636.
NEVER say--OHH that rain clouds gonna miss us.
And most of all NEVER EVER tell a ZX10 owner that ya thought his bike was a 636 --cos first chance he gets he'll shower ya in tyre rubber and road sand/grit
Yep Had a bllody good time.27 hp is all I can deal with --but shit it was more fun than a barrel full of monkeys
