If being good were a pre-requisite, only me and Tricky would be there.Timmy wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 11:28 am I haven't ridden my bikes for over a year I reckon. I'd be next to useless on track now, not that I was any good in the first place. Will decide on the trackday if I ever get back in the saddle this year. Would be great to see some old faces.
You'd be there to run the BBQ right?weeksy wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 12:32 pmIf being good were a pre-requisite, only me and Tricky would be there.Timmy wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 11:28 am I haven't ridden my bikes for over a year I reckon.

I've got one more who would like to come mate, but he's a bit concerned that his Triumph Daytona 675 (with aftermarket "not for road use" pipe) will fail the noise test. He's going to go to Castle Combe & get it tested by their noise Nazis & see what they say. Is it possible to put him down in the novice group anyway? I'm sure we can come up with a solution. If so name is Jonathan M.weeksy wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 4:44 pm Fab job sir !!!!
I'll ping Alan and let him know how many places to hold for now...
Any more for any more ?
I can say one part of the answer for sure, a hire bike won't be £150, you're looking £350-500. @Alan PBTDIanB wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 4:57 pmI've got one more who would like to come mate, but he's a bit concerned that his Triumph Daytona 675 (with aftermarket "not for road use" pipe) will fail the noise test.

Also has Phil got bikes to rent this year? If so Midge wants to rent one, he believes the cost is £150?

The noise tests at Combe aren't comparable with anywhere else I've been in my experience. My cbr measures between 92 and 94 everywhere except combe where it measures 99. Last time I was at combe there was a bunch of old boys running historic bikes with no silencers to speak of that sounded deafening from 20 feet away with earplugs and a lid on... all went through at 99.IanB wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 4:57 pm I've got one more who would like to come mate, but he's a bit concerned that his Triumph Daytona 675 (with aftermarket "not for road use" pipe) will fail the noise test.

On the subject of noise mate, am i right in thinking Paddy has a new V4 Ducati as there has been some issues with them at Pembrey even as standard. I remember speaking to @Alan PBTD about it last year so he might be able to clarify as some got black flagged with the new V4 enginesIanB wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 4:57 pm

I keep saying that I'll do one of these track days. I did book on one before tearing all the tendons in my right thumb in work so I couldn't ride!!Tricky wrote: Mon Jan 17, 2022 9:44 am
And @Beancounter , be good to see you again matey, likewise @Nobby @singlesman @Timmy and @Screwdriver - and @Claude @Nordboy @DEADPOOL (or @Deadpool2 - am not sure what the difference, if any is?
And don't think he's on here, but would be good to see Bubleshoes again too
Paddy had the V2 Panigale & it went through ok last year with standard pipes. He has got a new Troy Baylis V2 waiting to be picked up in the dealers & so he should be ok again this yearBigyin wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 7:48 pm

Cool, i knew he had a new Panigale but wasnt sure if it was a V2 or V4IanB wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 8:39 pmPaddy had the V2 Panigale & it went through ok last year with standard pipes.

The reason we go to Combe for noise testing is that they are so strict, if the chief scrutineer says he would let you out on track there, you can guarantee your have no trouble at another circuit.dern wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 6:18 pmThe noise tests at Combe aren't comparable with anywhere else I've been in my experience.

Second hand OE exhausts look cheap for that bike on ebay.
If i could blag one i would just for thatAlan PBTD wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 10:51 pm
''Bigyin'' gets a get out of jail card if he turns up on a MS V4 Pikes Peak.....
I assume there'd be no issue if someone could persuade a hire company to turn up though. I know a few years back, Smallboys were asked and would have attended, but ended up being not needed.
