This morning the Pig developed a knock after a quick squirt through the gears, I'm suspecting bottom end. The good news is that I have 4 weeks hols starting next week, so as I was half tearing down the bike anyway to fit new suspension, steering head bearings etcetera, now It'll be a total rebuild. I may take the opportunity to powder coat the frame and swingarm black as well as up the compression and other engine bits to later specs while I'm at it. So there goes PI for another year... Old mate's racing the ASC next year and my next hols coincide with the WSBK round at PI so hopefully I'll make up for it then... That's life, now I'm going to crack a Coopers.
