Mentioned to exhaust man in the yard I'd like a smaller lighter can and a bit more noise, I wanted high level but the hanger is welded to the frame and I didn't want to cut it. He took the bike over and came back like this, lots lighter and a nice bark to it so half a result :)

Gonna have to take wheels out this week, said I’d do a Trackday for a mares birthday and this is the only bike I’ve got to use. I’m sure it’ll be fine and maybe even a bit of fun with some more road biased tyres 👍

Had a proper ride round the peaks today. Did some of the more difficult lanes and bike was great. Obviously a lot slower than a light bike but still very capable and fun

So we went to donington, a swap of tyres to scorpion trails and I rode down for a Trackday today. I can only liken it to riding a giraffe in the grand national. All that matters is it was great fun for 7 dry sessions 👍
