take it to the biggest roundabout you can find & get it on its side with your knee on the deck

Must have belonged to a girl, the little rubber tits are still on the sidewall.
He's going to Croft with it next week to watch the racing.
He had an SP1 years ago and it flicked him off at about 20 mph on the round about at Kenton Bar so he is a bit wary,He went to Holland on it and promtly sold it when he got back, I rode it once and did not get back on it !
I prefer my knees where they are,stopping my ar5e from touching the floor.

i was thinking of going to croft too, tell him to book a track day, he,ll love it
it,ll get rid of the tell tales on the side walls.
i like the blades more than the R1,s, not so flighty on the road
if he wants some one to scrub the tyres in for him you know where i am

hey guys
i just read this thread and thought id add, dont be fooled by lifetime warrantys
i bought a good socket set from halfords a few years ago id not had it long and one of the little screws in the back near the direction switch came out and got lost and they would not help me at all, they said they dont cover general wear and tear
what did they think i was going to do leave it in the box and not use it

Andy
