What kind of race series are you getting into, @Richzx6r, can you easily fit your 600 into one?

Im going in to the bemsee 600cc newcomer series in 2023 going to do trackdays throughout the 2022 year to make sure the bike is good to go and so I can get more experience on the trackĀ

Best to start with a limited audience, less people to laugh at the fat gammon on a 600 that's struggling to carry the lard.

So the build of track bike has started now that rugby has finished, so far I have put on the levers and rearsets and have now started stripping bits off ready for its service, ordered full service kit plus all new bearings for whole bike, caliper rebuild kits as the bike has stood dormant for 3 years it will need some tlc to get it ship shape.

@bobonelegĀ if you happen to have anything from a ninja j1 600cc laying around at work that would be suitable for the bike let me know as spares will never be turned down.Ā

I think that's their whole business plan, fixing those bikes and selling parts for them.

The SPS is a pretty rare thing Rich but I'll keep my eye out.Ā  We are actually searching for a good set of 996 forks ourselves at the moment.

So my direction has changed somewhat with the trackbike thing yes I started out looking at turning my old j1 ninja in to a trackbike but what with one thing or another I didn't get the time to complete the project so its up om ebay right now as I have secured myself an already prepared 2002 aprilia rsv mille which I will be picking up on Saturday from completelymotorcycles in Gloucester.....Ā£1600 ebay auction which I thought a damned good deal for what it is!!

I will soon be getting it to a nearby track to get acquainted with it and see what it is made of.....and fingers crossed not binning it on the first go!
