Thanks for the info, I'm looking forward to watching it..I've been round Cadwell a few times on a R6 and CBR600RR and loved it so I'm sure the 400's will be loads of fun!

Well, it's done!

Bike fettled & roadtested this afternoon. Scorcher of a day down here, the fans almost came on ..

New look since last time, based on the F3 manual.

See you all in a week's time.

Regards,

Dave.

you may want to think carefully of the consequences of that metal tray if you come off on the road. The couple of times' I've used my NC and camped I've stuck it all in a roll top waterproof bag, put some tape over the side panels to stop the elastics rubbing the paint. The bag is a little rubbery, so won't slide on the seat
The only pic I have


I'm coming to this, friday and saturday
leaving Kidderminster at around 5pm on the friday, will be heading this route
M5, M42, M6, M69, M1, A46 etc
if anyone wants to join me they're welcome
Not sure what i'm bringing as the NC needs tyres
but most likely one of the following
NC30
ZXR750H1
900 Superlight
YB11

Where is everyone going to be camping?

I did think about that, and yeah it wouldn't be good, so I'll just do my best not to crash

I haven't actually been able to make it up yet as the metal tray hasn't even come yet, darn royal mail.

If it really does worry me I'll just cram all my stuff into my huge backpack.

Now then guys and girls.

Just had another chat with Darin @ CBT - and there are a couple of things toclear up:

1: Sunday - There are spaces left for Sunday and they are also at the discounted price - so get on and call Darin to book please. I told Darin of a few names that had expressed an interest in Sunday but no-one booked yet..so if you want to do it, get on it.

2: Friday night - http://www.robspeed.com/newsitem/28593/ ... -2013.aspx

There is an event on... so it might be busy, noisy and with much beer. Hog roast, trade stands, track evening if you are that keen!

I'll go find myself a nice little camping area (away from the band) and as I hope to be there before 5pm I will see if there is any good locations free that most of us (if we wanted) would be able to hang out as a 400GB posse.


I am very excited..only got to put the forks back in my bike, check it over and go from there...
I'll be bringing tools and stands

This is getting better and better, going to be an awesome weekend!

I was hoping to join the fun, but wasn't sure where I would be with work so had to decline. Turns out the job has been delayed so I'm planning on coming over to view and take photos. Probably on saturday, but depending on two things...... 1. Weather, if it's raining I might not ride over. and 2. I'm waiting to see if my new bike has arrived and been registered, if it has I'll be in Barnsley picking up the MV.

Not sure what I'll be riding either one of the 400's, YB8 or YB9.

Save me a pitch please Mark

Aye, Will do Geoff - I'll be wanting to be near your BBQ skills I am sure :)

looks like i'll prob pop in on saturday, i'll park the transalp where no one can see it and come say hello. Shame the trx is not road legal or i'd come on that. I did a full day on it at Cadwell last thursday. You'll all love cadwell on the 400's.
