Jon B...They had a 3rd one go at the race last yr...which I wasn't present at...as I'm not longer involved with the project.

Anyway you don't have to worry about yours going...17 yr old on a bike thats as fast as my gsxr4...bound to crash it before it blows on you ;)

OK That's it the T595 is HISTORY! Ipick up my next bike Saturday morning so no sportsbike riding 'til then... so watch out if you see a DR200 whacking around!

I couldn't sell the T595 because of the milage, so it's going to be dismantled for scrap; ... 'cause that was the best price I was offered! :-(

Anyway, I've decided that I've had enough of "Bus driving" :lol: ... so no more big old litre class stuff for me... I'm picking up a sports 600 so that I can corner faster in the wiggly bits and keep my licence on the straight bits. :D

Andrew doesn't stand a hope on the 'ring now!!! :twisted: :P 8)
