Certainly is! She may be a little untidy round the edges but she keeps on going, I've had absolutely no mechanical problems with her at all since I took her off you, I just put her in the van and am always confident she'll go well. She got belts at the start of the year, had the occasional oil and filter change, new fork seals at Assen, race spec clutch springs to reduce slipping, tyres every now and then, and I just adjust the gearing for circuits and put petrol in her! Couldn't ask for more!

plus all those replacement parts we stuck on her.
plus repair to rear brake.
clutch much better since Assen too.

she does seem to just keep going and going no matter what you do to her.

He'd better not get too aggressive, he's bad enough as it is!! Chappers, maybe we should tie him up to the back of Suzi and drag him round the paddock a couple of times, that would get him aggressive
Excellent report Zimbo and maybe I should write one about an 8 egg omelette al fresco

Once you obtain 10 signatures (1 per race/weekend) you are no longer classed as a novice and therefore don't have to wear the silly bib
