Kawasaki have been pioneering that for a few years Duke. They reckon new tc systems will go this way for road bikes soon or later.

The day in wales when I was on the SX was when I got into the Crossgates car park ahead of most of the others, you included and waited, only to be told when people turned up that no one had made sure Rossgo and Perkles knew the turn off for the cafe.

Not this scratched record again. I know you like quoting history and telling everyone your the fastest but last time we went to Wales your were no where to be seen and I kept waiting. I seem to remember you passing on complementary comments......I guess you were not feeling yourself.

It's ok I don't have an ego and happy for someone else to be faster so if it makes you feel better just say your weren't really trying...It's ok, honest it's ok (giggle) .

Oh nearly forgot the SX day you rode off and me, Perkles and Rossgo all got stuck at a red light in Newtown, but I never mentioned it. I didn't realise we were bing timed tbh. I had just popped out for fun with mates.
