    I do but there are so many reasons not to..

    1: Struggling to get out Monday family wise (although it is probably doable)
    2: The bike needs to be serviced, Braided hoses need to be fitted, suspension needs to be set up and I need to source a baffle for the scorpion exhaust.
    3: I still have no transport so would have to ride there and back..Ok for Brands but not ideal for Snets...Did it before on my FZ1...I was knackered....

    Have to be the next one :(

    Have a good'un

    I am going up Sunday afternoon probably intending to get to the pub by 6:30 so I can :eat: have a :cheers: and be early to bed :sleep:.

    I will contact Focused Events this week and see if it's possible to drop the bikes off in a garage at circuit early Sunday evening (can't find a smilie for 'dropping bike off in garage').

    Tom has asked if I can take his bike on the trailer, and I believe Leila is taking hers in the sweetie van. Tom if you bring your bike here on Sunday we can load up and leave your car here.

    Apologies we ended up staying in different places. Spent several weeks deciding whether to go, and when we decided yes I rushed in without a lot of planning :oops:.

    Has everyone got transport, and anyone need anything taken?

    Jim

    Garages are free and not bookable, hence try and sort one out Sunday evening :)

    We could at least all have dinner together if places aren't too far apart. Lost - are you coming up Sunday or Monday like Garya?

    It would be better to ride the bike as it is before upgrades, so later you can assess the effect of the upgrades ;)

    You guys know how to tempt someone...

    Let me make a few phone calls to see if it is possible to get the stuff done in time..

    If the pieces of the jigsaw fall well this would be great...Cheers mate...Will keep you posted...Much appreciated.
    True but I also want to make sure I'm safe whilst riding around the track...I'm scared enough as it is without worrying about the bike blowing up on me...I have an SOS call out to HM racing to see if they can fit me in...If so, I'll phone Focussed and see if they can squeeze me in...

    oh and then I'll check with the wife lol ;)...priorities right ;)

    Regretfully not as the one you are in doesn't have another three rooms. Has always been the problem around Snetterton - you have to take what you can get :(

    well the bike has had been given an oil change and new filter, the chain is lubed. Think i'm ready :D maybe a bit early but i have also attached a zip tie to the bike so it feels more like mine now :thumbsup:

    stars and stripes can you bring your spare baffle again. I have fitted a new one but it doesn't sound that quiet :rolleyes: maybe testing in my conservatory isn't the best place though :D

    ok here is where we are:-

    HM Racing cant fit me in this week :(

    Slipstream in sevenoaks can fit me in to get me up to scratch for the trackday but any upgrades (brake hoses, brakes discs if needed etc) he'll have to do after...So I said I am taking it down there 9:30am tomorrow morning for him to gander at..Pending our discussion i will feel happy or not that I will be able to go or not (although still not told wife yet :eek:)

    So tomorrow I could be on final stages for booking....Cant believe you lot talked me into it...

    I can then start booking trackday (4 spaces left - please hope they hold), hotel (any tips or suggestions greatfully received or i'll just find something, speak to confirm with stars and stripes (if you see this mate could you send me your mob via pm so i can talk to you?)

    honestly..i'm so weak....i'm not doing a trackday yet...Go on Neil..You know you want to....Oh ok then :D
