Just a quick update, after a few weeks at BMC and a few minor problems have come to light.
First a leak was spotted in the bottom radiator, which will be replaced by a bigger alloy rad to increase cooling. This is just a drop in the ocean of things that are being done.........
The second problem is slightly more of a problem but with Mike on the case i'm sure it will get resolved. There are some worn cogs basically in the gearbox causing it to jump out of gear which explains my dissapointing last race. Once this is fixed Mike can then get on with the other parts and then we can get the bike back on track.
As for new parts......
Here's a list of things that will be on the bike when she comes back...
- Quickshifter
-Quick action throttle
-Ram Air
-New light weight tank
-New lighter battery
-Scitsu Temperature Gauge
-New Seat unit (more room for me to get under the screen)
All these new things will help give more power, lighten the bike and all in all help me compete with the guys at the front. I'm very excited with the new stage of this bike and now i've had the bike coming up to 3 years and remember the first time out when it was a very standard bike, but over the years mainly due to funds we've managed to slowly improve everything about the bike.
I feel since the bike has been at BMC Racing the bike will get the best and will transfer onto the track. Within the next year i expect the bike to be a top spec RVF 400, having new suspension in the winter and hopefully a new exhaust system. Then once its all done we can concentrate on the racing and spreading the word of BMC RACING.
