Thanks for the comments all
Had a great day at brands yesterday, really made all the hard work worthwhile!
The first session was horrendous, first time back on a bike since the accident and first track day in probably a year, wasn't sure if the bike was going to fall apart or not
Second session feeling a bit better, in myself mainly, bike still feeling strange, which I guess is expected as so much has changed on it.
Afterwards changed tyre pressures again, figured out why steering felt weird, steering damper was on loosest setting...
The other sessions just got better and faster, starting to get used to it all again, I had forgotten how strenuous it is going all out, was just trying to remember to keep relaxed etc, my hands were numb
Really disappointed with MSV as a track organiser though, they had obviously overbooked so they created two inters groups, which was silly really as my group wasn't busy and neither was the fast group, they could have easily ran 3 groups, but also they were running some rider skills taster sessions and some track time for Kent fire services or something like that, so track sessions weren't as much as I was expecting, I don't think I will do a full day with them again.
Also the services they had were appalling, no dedicated tyre guy, they only had a race spares guy who could supply and fit tyres, and the biggest annoyance for me was no suspension guy either
which meant my nice new Ohlins was left to its own devices, I had a play with preload and it wasn't far off ok but some chatter, tyre didn't get any horrendous tearing either, only later in the day wear went off a bit but I think that was more pressure related as it did get quite hot in the afternoon when the sun came out.
unKle my next booked TD is a brands evening, I think either 30th june or 1st july, need to check... got nothing else booked yet.
