Open pits are great as you don't get that many on at the same time in general, more down to not having the pressure to get out when they say, more when you want, time it right and it can work well.

Plus 20 mins pushing is enough, ha ha

saturday was a nightmare - kept on finding neutral when changing up at high revs so missed most of the 1st 5 sessions. Took a trip down to Tony from Parkitt who took a look at it and meniotned that the gear lever was not being fully engaged until it was quite high so he lowered the height and it worked fine after that.

I then got to experience the full power of the bike - its an effin missile!!! Having only ever ridden 600s this thing literally took by breath away on the back straight.

Yesteday was beautiful sunshine and the bike worked perfectly all day. Loved it!!

Next steps for it are to get the suspension set up properly and book more track days (devil)
