Ecster, Matty and Hambo, What group you in? I'm booked in the Medium. My poor little 750cc bike gets intimidated by those big noisy bikes  Embarrassed.

Medium for me.
Now I'm searching for a slightly 2nd hand rear tyre to use instead of running my Pilot Pure's which aren't on yet.

Why? The pilot Pures are a great tyre, my mate uses them on his CBR and has done 3 track days, still in very good nick.
I would put the best tyres I can on for the track  Huh?

I've had another look at them (Pilot Pure's) and I think I'll give them a go.
I was only a little worried cause I have run Powers at E.C. before and they tend to heat up and feather somewhat.
They can also suffer from cold tears which Big T  (Cry missed) did a good job of on his last set of new Pilot Powers.

Hey Matty I think you need to run lower tyre pressures when on the track.

yeah maybe so.
I was always at 28 cold.
I might need to start at 26 cold this time. Especially on new rubber.
