Spwed triple colour

[StMarks]

I don't have any concern.....

However if you only had my level of skill, you probably would have.: -Although I get my elbow down probably just as often as you do, it always involves damage to my bike & foreshortened track sessions.

Ahh shoot. Don't go doing that - it's daft and expensive

I would love to do a trackday with you guys at some point though, maybe next year

My last track day involved me scrubbing track debris out of my elbow I got it down so much right through the leathers and all!!!

Haha.. bloody hell mate !! You beat yourself up good and prope. Anyway, who knows, Portimao may be the only time I ever intentionally get my elbow down!

The Medics were young guys and hadn’t been at the track before. They were gently dabbing my wound with cotton buds to clean it. I’ve had enough crashes on mtb bikes, motorbikes, skateboards and the like in my life to know you need to give a wound a good clean. So I asked where the nail brush and sink was and proceeded to show them how to clean a track wound properly. They went a little white . It bloody hurts but beats weeks of infection.

It was a good hit, only time I’ve lost consciousness, albeit briefly. The vomiting when I got home indicated I probably was still in some level of shock. I haven’t been to a track since, not due to the crash but the fact I separated from the ex 4 days later and became a single dad and can’t manage a full day at the track and get the kids to and from school or afford to wipe myself out.

Still took me 2 years to part with the track bike.

I made that mistake in a homemade go-karting accident as a kid. Ended up having to have my knee drained, large dead bits cut off and a proper scrubbing with iodine. Couldn't bend it for 6 weeks.

Thanks for your opinions guys, seems it was evenly split.

At the time of the post I had the option on a new bike and they had one in each colour. They were silly cheap and went in a few hours and I missed them so in the end I didnt have the choice.

I have found a very nice Triumph approved used bike with a great spec in white and I'm happy with that Hope to collect next week.

[Kwacky]

Have you firmed up a collection date yet?

[C00kiemonster]

What model year / mileage is it blade? Any goodies on it?

66 plate with 3k on the clock in white.

From memory extras are Arrow exhaust, tail tidy, crash protectors, radiator guard, pazzo levers and maybe a few other little bits but that's what I can remember.

Happy I went with White in the end

[D6]

Looks good. But needs a seat cowl

Good idea do they just ping off?

I just pulled mine off and degreased the glue.

[D6]

Exactly

[Blade]

Cheers boys need to do that and then warning stickers

Fishing line behind it should remove it. Warm the glue first with a hairdryer.
