Flattracker Build

Done quite a lot on the flattracker in weeks since Amman Valley.

Cuttin tyres the old way...

Swingarm is 4 degrees flatter, wheelbase 15mm shorter, gearing 8mph at the top of 3rd shorter, new numberboards, built a battery box, new airfilter, new rear tyre and have finally gotten around to making some brackets and getting those tasty Bates footpegs fitted...

Tomorrow we race at the new stadium in Leicester... hope the crappy rain stops soon so it can all dry out.

Flattrack on!

To Flip or Not to Flip...

... that is the question.
Been hoarding some bates footpegs for my flattracker.

Gonna fit 'em soon.
Calling on the flattrackers out there... should I fit them so they can flip up and are a bit protected... or is fixed better for ploughing the bike to a stop when we get off?

Let me know your thoughts and experience...
