The Geeks Go On Tour

On a slightly different note, myself and seven of my friends and colleagues took a trip down to the Air Museum at Duxford. Between us we have approximately 3 million years worth of working in the aircraft industry and during the trip everyones true 'geekiness' came out. For me it was the chance to see the Blackbird SR71 (pictured left), probably my favourite aircraft of all time. Anything than can fly at 3.3 mach has to be something special. As we are more use to the British military aircraft I think it was the hangar that housed the American stuff that created the most interest.
So there you go, what do people who work on military aircraft do on their day off? Yes, that's right, go and look at more military aircraft!

Flow Your Head Sir?

Colin at Road and Race Developments has started work on porting and flowing our ER6/Versys cylinder head. There is a lot of work to be done on this part of the bike and this is where there is most potential to see some major power gains. Once done our reprofiled cams will be slotted in and then the rebuild of the engine can commence.
If you have any engine tuning or engine building requirements then give Colin a shout on 07843 557374 or take a peek at what engine tuning is on offer at http://www.roadandracedevelopments.co.uk/page_2474192.html

Daytona for 2012 ?

I feel very privileged to announce that for the 2012 season we will be supported by Daytona Boots. These are simply the best boots that money can buy. If you want to keep your tootsies safe then there is no better place to have them than in a pair of Daytona's finest offering. As you can see they have even been custom made in our colours and this is a service that they can offer to anybody.

ER6 Rearsets Anyone

Thanks to our friend Pete at Cadmatic Engineering Services (http://www.cadmatic.co.uk/) as he has come up trumps with the finished back plates for the rearset to fit our Kawasaki ER6 Supertwin. These particular ones are to fit the later model frames where the left and right bolt hole patterns are different, on the earlier models the bolt hole patterns are the same. As you can see these look a fantastic bit of kit and I will post some photos as soon as I get them fitted. In the meantime if you need some rearsets for your ER6 or SV650 then please get in touch with Pete on 01635 582200.
