New addition to the Ratty fold..
Note the letter R, it happens to be very significant
Lovely....
To say I’m chuffed is an understatement, in 2001 this was a WSB
This was my first Ducati....wish I had kept it
Almost as big as the T6..
Almost as big as the T6..
And just as thirsty....
Here's my current bikes below.......
First is my Triumph Daytona 675 SE which is my Road Bike
Next is my Honda C90 which I use for both Road Riding and Endurance Racing (Plop Enduro, Moped Mayhem e.t.c)
Next is my Kawasaki ZX6R which is my Track Day Bike for a bit of fun
Finally is my Honda CB500 Race Bike (Cal Crutchlow Replica-ish) that I race with Thundersport
You can probably tell I kind of like my bikes a lot

Exactly that! There are normally a full grid of 40 of us in each race and the bikes are strictly standard, on the same tyres e.t.c therefore makes the racing very even and close
Every track day I did on the CB, people would blast past on the straights (its only 50bhp) and I’d be all over them and pass them in the corners until they came past again on the next straight. Hence me getting the ZX6 for some trackday fun....
Absolutely lovely collection. Those Triumph triples are lovely engines, I guess that is why they are going to be the stock supplied engine for Moto2 next year. I’d love to have a street triple, which is ultimately the Daytona, but naked.Here's my current bikes below.......

Great number for the track there; RIP SIC.
Thanks very much
. You’re right about the Triumph engines, I watched a Triumph Triple Challenge race at the top of Clay Hill at Oulton Park and the sound of 25 of them with Arrow Exhaust systems had me hooked, I had to have one from then, especially the colour scheme I’ve got. It would be an amazing track bike but although it’s not the newest, it’s my absolute pride and joy, it’s only got 4,000 miles on and I just couldn’t bring myself to potentially bin it on track. I wouldn’t want to go on a trackday and hold back a bit because I was worried about anything happening to the bike under me, that’s why the ZX6 is mechanically sorted but not much of a looker, if it goes down then so be it58 was my first choice number when I joined Thundersport for that very reason!
LOL - you would probably be cursing people like me then.
I did a load of track days on my 2005 Z1000 and it was quick enough on the straight bits, but could be a bit bouncy on corners that were anything but perfect tarmac.
