Its an adjustable A/R Bar I have tried it with and without a fixed one back to back last season, with it it over steered a tad too much without it, it had chronic understeer so I purchased this from the states from a reknown 2nd gen tweeker in a hope to be able to dial it in a bit closer to neutral, we will see.

The bike is a 1908 reg Triumph 2HP and the pub is the castle Inn at Chiddingstone (1420)
Actually this bike belongs to a mate who works at Larkins Brewery. I also had a thrash about on another mates Speed Triple last week, talk about a contrast !!!! |

Speed Triple probably what I would have if didn't have the Ducati. A racing friend's eldest son had one, recently replaced by a TVR as the GF wasn't into bikes! |

Mrs Zef's landmark birthday today, and Arths on easter hols, so a short days work followed by wining and dining this evening.

I have just got in some Maderia Threads 'Firefighter' Nomex embroidery cotton for the first time so I can offer badges that are legal fitment on racing overalls, Maderia has an FIA approval certificate for this product I believe. Someone on here asked me about them recently but I cannot remember who they were.

When they first came out I bought this 916 Senna. It lived behind closed doors as it was an animal. It was also impossible to drive in the Paris rush hour!
