I went testing at Mallory on Wednesday.
Bike ran well, jetted it as Stephen recommended.
Only problems I had were the tool chest falling over onto the bike in the trailer. Broke the screen,
bugger! Could've been worse though. Off to see Gavin tomorrow to get a couple more.
The gearing was a little high. Was the lowest I had. Will have to try to get some larger rear sprockets.
I`ll have to adjust the fuel tap position as I kept turning it off with my leg when braking/cornering hard in the last session!
Other than that just a couple of minor fairing and mudguard issues.
Was the first time I've been on a bike since Brands Hatch in 2007. Felt good, could even get my even fatter belly squashed behind the tank!
Got a few aches and pains now though! Getting in shape came second to building the bikes!
One really good plus was I had no trouble with my dodgey knees at all during the sessions. They're healing up really well now. This was a big concern of mine for a long while. Happily I didn't even think about them until I was driving home afterwards!
I'm doing the trackday on Friday before the meeting as I've never raced at Anglesey before.
Will be good to catch up with all the people who I've been avoiding for the last three years!
Happy Days, hopefully!
Roy.
