The large C stripe is stock from Metzler, so far no issues in rain.

and 2 gallon of gas round trip.

R any of u guys doing track days or racing, if road comp what class is 650 raced under.
Thanks

Dude I commute 26Km each way and there are 3 corners in a whole work day that I can get it cranked over a bit - if I did nothing else I'd have the whole thing scrubbed in a fortnight...
But I make a point of doing a weekend ride at least twice a month, because the high I get there is better than any drug. I had to replace the rear this week (damn rivet!), so even though it's a working weekend for me, I'll have it done by Sunday afternoon...
You gotta put some effort into these things ;)

Actually now that I mention it, I'll be working in Unanderra on Sunday morning - if anyone is interested in a Mac Pass run around lunchtime they should let me know, otherwise I'll drive down...

Shit I totally forgot about this sorry! The weather was crap as I recall, anyway.
There are somewhat loose plans to do Nasho, Mac Pass and KV for a beer tomorrow though...
