December 24, 20196 yr Have managed to find the services of an excellent passenger and a place to practice. After a few sessions we have managed to gain some control so at least we can now make it go in a straight line. Still looking for some events to compete in.
December 24, 20196 yr Peak Classics over the border in Derbyshire had chairs in their last meeting in Matlock. I don't know if there is an age criteria for the outfits though.
December 24, 20196 yr How's the Fournales shock holding out ? I rode a 323 for a year or two and the suspension was very plush. The engine's got a fair bit of grunt too.
December 25, 20196 yr Author At the suggestion of Joel Corry, I changed the shock oil to 10w and pumped it up to 200lbs per inch. Seems to work well. Copes with the additional weight without bottoming out but is still soft enough to float over obstacles. The 320cc engine seems to have all the power we need. The gearing is quite high. Comes from a time of solo use when I used 2nd gear to blast through every section. Might reduce front cog by one tooth. As ever though the machine is much better than the rider!
