Oh and had binding front brake issues all weekend, not an excuse but it may have been a bit faster if the wheel span free.. New master cylinder seals, new caliper seals, new brake lines, CBR600F4 calipers.. Need to work out what's going on as there should be no issues with it..

Looks like you had a great weekend. Well done.

Wish I'd seen this post last week, would have tried to come along. Maybe next time.

Cheers.

Al, I might have cracked a small smile, which must mean I'm reasonable happy :wink:

Mac, Blew the cobwebs out of Franks wheels, but didn't finish high enough to be interviewed :lol:

Great write up mate, sounds like you made some great improvements over the weekend and enjoyed yourself.

Any pics to add?

Re the Metzelers, I was reading PB mag earlier today an article spoke of Micheal Rutter managing a 122MPH lap on them using a stock GSXR1000 using these tyres and with great wear rates...my storm will need a new pair of boots soon so ill be defo considering those
