Well, now I know. Rode my Uly around Hampton Downs today. Its first and last time on a track. Loved the new tyres, (which is actually why I went out - I wanted to see how they spalled up - beautifully!) enjoyed hanging on the back of the sportsbikes going around the tight stuff. Hated getting utterly blown away on the straights. Wasn't wringing its neck, but had it wicked up. I was hitting 110mph on the back straights, the 600's were tapping around 20-30mph faster and the 1000's 30 to 40. As a track bike I'd give it 3/10. However, for its ability to ride ANYWHERE at a dry track, as well as to and from - I give it 9/10.  | ||

Makes me kind of sad that there will be no new ones when I have the money to buy one. | ||

Yeah - Hacks me off I won't be able to buy another one. Knees? - probeleeeem with being the photographer. Got the pegs on the deck a few times though - that's pretty good going on a Uly. | ||

DId you have the luggage on at the time? That would have been funny to see. | ||

No luggage - ironwork is fitted though. Avon VP2 - strictly road tyres (supposedly!) - but I am quite impressed. They dare you to take it to extremes - and I have been. They give pretty good warning that they are about to let go too. Oooh! - back off a bit Davey. Mmmmmmm stiiiiiickeeeee.  |
