1st race of 2023 booked!

Yay, I have booked my first race of 2023, it is for the BEMSEE Round 3 @ Snetterton on the 6/7 May.

Still waiting for my exhausts, but getting the bike prepped now.

I will be racing in Thunderbike Ultra for my main class, and the Powerbikes to get some extra track time.

Getting Ready for racing 2023!!

Well after my little off @ Cartagena, I have sent my exhausts off to PipeWerx to compare my existing exhausts with theres, with a bit of luck they will match.

I have had PipeWerx exhausts before, and they are great. They look good, sound great, and the service is second to none.

I have also bought a new rear sub frame, so will be swapping that out, luckily apart from a few scuffs there was no more damage.

I should hopefully be racing in round 3 @ Snetterton in early May.

Cartagena

Well, that didn’t go as planned!! I had a slight incident in the car park on the first morning (before I had even got on track!) which resulted in a few scuffs, and also bent exhausts.

A very bodgy repair, saw them both go at the end of the day, another hasty repair lasted a bit longer, but a 3rd repair was needed to finally finish the event.

As such a lot of track time lost, and sporadic sessions meant I didnt get the quality time on track I needed, so a very average time and I didn’t really get comfy on the bike.

Oh well, next time.

Bike is ready

I have spent the last few weeks getting the bike ready for the new season. It took a while as I have had to fit the work in-between work, home and family stuff.

I started at the front of the bike with the breaks, and slowly worked to the back. Brakes were cleaned, wheels cleaned and lubed, spark plugs, oil and filer changed, etc.

Fired her up and she ran sweet, a quick test down the cul de sac, and all seems well, ready for the season testing at Cartagena.
