I imagine a well set up big motard would be the go on Seafield rather than a big horsepower rocket.

Put all your trackday skills to use at Seafield Road.

(unless of course you are escaping to Welly !!)

More like needing road skills since fences and cliffs are involved.

My trackday skills which are fuckall since I'm a noob have only been to stay upright and stop in time for corners!!!!

Yeah. At this minute we're ordering a 24 litre tank from USA. Only does 120km on the current 10L tank.
