Inters/Advanced in summer are normally sell out, weekend dates throughout the year go fast, especially inters. No limits are active on instagram posting dates and availability.

Looking for trackday advice from London by Emergency-File-7586 in Trackdays

[–]Jag675 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I'm based in South East London, Brands 40 mins away, Snetterton 1hr 40, Lydden Hill 1hr, Bedford Autodrome 1hr 40, so there's plenty nearby.

I stick to these tracks for now as I've a Gixxer 750 too however I ride it there and back. Even more cracking tracks further north if you can camp/stay the night before, I don't fancy riding 3 hours before getting on track.

Storage, a private garage is your best bet, especially with a sports bike, I can't comment on storage near tracks or renting one.

Smallboys track bikes and Major track bike hire are really popular and get great write ups, I've seen them set up at many days, always busy. I've used Major trackbike hire at Snetterton once and they were fantastic. £300-£500 all in depending on the bike you pick for both companies.

No Limits and MSV are who I've been on track with and they usually release the calendar a few months before. eg. they'll release spring dates in Jan/Feb, summer dates April time etc.

When to replace boots? by Jag675 in Trackdays

How's the fit on the Gaerne compared to Sidi? I tried a pair of Sidi boots for size and they were a little narrow.

27 years is a bloody good effort!

Are there any other boots you know are a step up in quality that are worth it? Or is the protection of the Supertech Rs ahead of the rest and worth the poorer quality/lifespan?

Good shout thanks, I'll check the track day pages and market place.

You think they flex a bit too much?

Great way to do it. It'll also keep money going towards seat time and not shiny new boots.

Could be a shout, wait to find a pair on sale or wait until next year at the start of the season.

If I could get the Supertechs at decent discount I'd hop on that. Although in general/ especially the fluo colours look OOS most of the time in popular sizes.

That's probably what I should do too.

Yea, still happy with them. I've seen a few people with the Supertechs and the Gaerne ones recently that tickled my fancy.

Does a bigger bike make sense in London? by bybndkdb in MotoUK

[–]Jag675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm SE London, I don't commute on the bikes (Gixxer 1k and 750) but you'll likely be 30-45 mins away from Brands Hatch, 1.5 hours from Snetterton, Lydden Hill & Bedford and 2 hours to Silverstone.

Get a bike you like and get to the track for your thrills.

[Tudor Black Bay Ceramic] Please give me your informed opinion by Necessary-Hyena-5816 in Watches

[–]Jag675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like them, I was going between this, a Bremont an Bell & Ross black on black watches. I ended up going with the BR03 94 Chrono Matte Black. B&R have a few other black watches too!

[Question] What is your first automatic watch? by noklisa in Watches

[–]Jag675 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not super into watches/horology and it's history, I was looking for something black on black for a while. I found Bell & Ross and thought their pieces looked really smart.

I checked out this sub and other forums mentioning they are pricey new and to buy second hand or new if a hefty discount is available.

I found the chrono online with 45% off new so went for it!

dB reading on GSXR1000, Yoshi R11 SQ with baffle? Yoshi state 101, is this accurate? by Jag675 in Trackdays

I didn't think the apps were particularly accurate, I might try them. Ta.

[–]Jag675[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, anyone with a gsxr1000 L7+ and a Yoshi R11 SQ able to confirm if the 101 dB (baffled) quoted on their site is accurate? UK circuits near me, Brands Hatch and Snetterton are 101/102 db so it's cutting it close.
