same engine twice mate!!!!

front cct is weak because oil will not flow up hill on its own!!

spring always breaks at the top of said cct!!!!!

trackdays every 4>5 weeks do your engine no good at all!!!

some one down south has a onestop fix for this apparently, never found out who.

soon as i get another bike i will find out what to do before caning wombles out of it!!

i like dunlop 208s on mine, done track days all over and walked all over R1s, ducatis, gixers etc!!!!

by the same token tho.. ive been nailed by the same, who have more confindince than me in there machines!!!

i mate who was marshalling at one track day stiffed me up the inside on a hairpin!!
