Went to george whites on sunday (for those that don't know it's a huge dealership in Swindon) they had an open day with all sorts of fun stuff going on my mate got a 1 peice suit RRP £399 in an auction for £160!

After hanging arround to see if I'd won a new GSX R 1000 (I didn't) went for a blast and with out really trying went on to a clear round about quite quickly tucked it over and hey presto knee on tarmac! :smt003

It was the new little bit of rear light wireing that made the difference :smt002

Ahh! Thought that said you'd took the Gixxer out and got your knee down, then!

Good man! Did it surprise you how loud the sound is?? It scared the toad out of my the first time because i wasn't expecting to be able to hear my knee scraping! :smt003

yeah was a bit of a supprise to be honest I wasn't expecting it, - I sat it back up a bit quickly with a grin from ear to ear!

Supprising how easy when not trying too hard to do it. The mates I ride with have been ribbing me for ages that I hadn't done it yet and I was deteremined that it would happen when I was ready - I only got a bike last July so chuffed to bits!
