Yeah I may have to get some sliders for them! :lol:

from what they say, if you jack the back up to get it to steer better, and increase ground clearance, the rocker covers deck first, and at standard set up, the centrestand touches down first. I might leave it stock :lol:

Strika, you'd better watch out - There was some great Hi-Vis Vest training today...

Wattie and Robracer assist with the Hi-Vis training:

Not only is he Hi-Vis and fast, Hoffy can still flip the bird at high speeds!

Yes nice work boys and girls! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I noticed in the pics that pretty much everyone was having a little dip through Photo Corner! I even took note, that Hoffy had almost as much lean angle as when it's parked on the side stand! Was it wet? :lol: :lol:
