Blade...
Calvin,
The Blade handled like a R1 on Steriods. It wasn't known until riding it at the track that the frame has been slightly bent.
20mm to be exact. Courtesy of Petes crash into the rear of a car on the Tonkin.
Also the track tyre guage inflator is way out. I thought I had put in 29psi whereas in fact it was only 22psi.
Hence the bike didn't handle to well. Tank slappers out of every corneras soon as you rolled on the throttle.
The bike has been stripped and is in Sydney to be straightend. Hopefully back and ready before the tuning day or at least the first club race.
Enjoyed the new track and the Bridgestones.
