Nigel - I see Group A is more select than when I last did it. Would I still be able to ride in that one or is it a bit mental?

Hi Adam,
Marts. just trying to get a less rigid format into the AM session for Group "A", I think. Several people have been before, know the procedure so it can get alittle predictable especially as quite a few do more than one date a year.Having said that, i think it works well and builds the pace up gradually so by the PM session you're smoother, quicker,and get more fun out of it.
Yes there were some rapid guys last year but as you know it's about finding you're comfort level without scaring yourself!
Go for a low level in Group "A" and see how the group goes.
You can always move up or down.
Cheers
Nigel

Just thought I'd post a bit of an update. Ohlins turned up this week, and a Remus Y piece is due today. Plan on fitting these in the next couple of weeks. New Z6's going on today, and I'll book in for 42K service with SLM. The plan now being to get
another 40K miles out of the thing, far cheaper than a new 'S' or 'BCR'.
It'll still look like a minger, but it will handle! Thanks for all the advice.

Hi guys.
Well yesterday I with the help of a friend fitted the Remus Y piece and Ohlins front and back.
Wow
Can't believe how much difference the shocks make
Even on bog standard settings, I can see these babies making riding a lot more enjoyable for the next 40K miles. I won't dial in any different settings until the weather improves. In any case, I can only see me needed a touch more preload at rear, and maybe a touch more rebound/comp damping.
Fitting the shocks was simple, but the Remus was a touch difficult. I'm glad I was in Dave's workshop, and I can recommend him if you don't have the time/space/tools or experience. Took 4 hours to do the whole lot, including eating a sausage sandwich!
Thanks again for the advice, and Ian for the Remus.
Simon
