  2. So cold, wet, snow, red flags and petrol down all the way round.
    Despite that it's great to be back out on a bike again :)

    Good day though, I've enjoyed it :)
    Now packed up waiting to get out. Back to base, swap into the car then straight to Mrs TDB's for beer + pizza ;)

    Well done tdb, great effort even if you didn't need the snowplough in the end - still putting all us summer riders to shame!! Hope you managed to thaw out again afterwards!

  7. What suspension set up do you have on your CB @trackdaybob?

    I bought a filthy road going one that had been sat in a barn for a year and a half to make it into a track bike, it'll be for the times I don't fancy riding the 675 and some different fun.

    Currently looks like this:

  8. The van is plenty warm ;)

    Front forks are sprung and 20w oil. Rear is fitted with YSS shocks from our very own @Sideshow Pob and sprung for me weight.
     
  9. Nice one, thanks.

    They're standard springs up front I assume?

    Any idea how much the shocks were? I've been debating whether to get YSS or Hagon
     
  10. @STRDan Yes, that's all we're allowed up front.

    I spoke at length with @Sideshow Pob (Paul) and decided to go YSS. He did me a cracking deal on them. Best I can say is give him a call for a chat. Tell him I sent you ;)
     
  11. I thought hypapro or hagon were allowed?

    Excellent, thanks for the help. Shocks are on next months shopping list so will give him a call then. Looking forward to getting it built and on track. Will be sure to mention you. Thanks again.

  14. Some footage here from @JamWheel on one of the Smallboy bikes. It'll give you an idea how shitty it was. He catches me at around the 5 minute mark ;)

    :-?? But you're not parked in your usual spot TDB.??



    You're at least 20cm further along from last time. ;))


    Weather looks good for tomorrow, so you made a good call back when you booked.

  18. First session done. Still wet/damp in parts but it'll dry up quick enough.
    Dry tyres are in ;)
     
  19. If you see Rob Mawbrey tell him I said good luck to you both :)
