Well, both me and the bike survived Friday, on Cadwell full circuit. I'm never gonna set any lap records, but I managed to pick off a couple of VFR400's and even a 600 or two in my novice group most sessions. The pics don't lie though, I'm not much cop at leaning over...

The bike got harder to start throughout the day, but didn't miss a beat once running. I had to nip up the exhaust bolts at lunchtime, it was blowing a bit from the front one. Managed 137kms over 6 sessions.

Oh, and don't take the piss out of my leathers, they were free...

I see why someone gave you the leather now
I have never done a track day before, maybe one day but on someone else's bike

the important thing is, you enjoyed yourself not how quick you went, or what leathers you used.

Good to see a classic KR out on track too

Why was that then

The photos are great, it looks like a great day out. When you doing the next one

Worked out why it was so loud at the noise test (100 dB) and why it seemed to get louder all day...

... there's a hole in the lower seam of the rear exhaust.

The front pipe comes off in a couple of minutes, the rear one means dismantling half the bike.
