Sounds like it was a good weekend for you Billy. More signatures, just what the doctor ordered as they say
For all the trick clutches used in drag racing, everyone always used stock Suzuki clutch plates, they coped with 600+hp no problem*. Anyone who tried using Barnett, EBC etc tended to have problems.... *Mind you they were knackered after about 2 miles (8 runs) in a drag bike
I agree. I'm sure that many of us probably sit and watch thinking "I'm SURE I could do that!" - especially if you've done a track day or two. But, I'm equally sure that when it comes down to the real world actuality it's an entirely different kettle of fish, can of worms, bag of spanners .......... pick your own metaphor. I'd suggest that it takes a very particular mindset, a whole lot of determination and dedication, and near infinite support from those around you (especially family) to actually get out there and get it done. That goes double when you've had a bit of a knock and a tumble. So, BB, FWIW you have my unalloyed admiration, respect and support. And, if I can get to Castle Combe, I'll be there to cheer you on ......... with or without the free paddock pass! KISSU!
And it happens to the best of the best at MotoGP, WSB, BSB etc levels Bill so you have nothing to be ashamed of, just keep plugging away mate, you'll be Rossi's team mate before you know it, wonder if he likes Hob nobs
I’d like to say I haven’t a clue about this but during my apprenticeship my bikes consisted of a cx500 then two cb250 rs’s so I’ll let you decide
