Not yet mate; just can't wait to see how it runs with a slipper and heading to Brands soon for my final 2013 outing!!

Lets see how it goes round the Indy against my bruvs ZX10.

Credit card will take the hit until pay day.

I look forward to catching up with you again on track Dave. The offers still there if you want to do a session on my TRX. It may have you rushing out to buy FCR's and other performance goodies!

Should try to meet up with Mark next year and make it a day of three (or more?/) TRX's in various states of tune for comparison.

I'll post my potential Brands date which may yet end up being Sept or Oct.

Nah, not keen on Mallory either after my high-side / broken thumb / broken finger / broken hand / dislocated shoulder / knocked out / TRX wrecked incident last time exiting Edwinas... :(

I will be purchasing a ZX9R C1 or 2 in the winter (when its cheaper) but don't tell anyone on here though Dave, just between you and me, right? 8-[

Soz, thread hijack alert. As you were.....

Edwinas and the Bus stop have ruined Mallory! Get along to the Vintage Motor Cycle Club Festival of 1000 Bikes next July - no Bus Stop and no Edwinas :D

Here's a pic of ol' Dandy on an ol' TZ350 at the Devil's Elbow this year..............
