[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 54028, member: 597"] Thanks Bill, I think his comments were a bit unfair...!! I know of some old women who happen to ride really hard......Sorry bad joke.....I would be the first to shove Reg out of the way and let you have first ride of the racer....unfortunately Reg is a bit closer to me than you are, but I will be thinking of you lot when I fire it up.... I agree that his footrest are very high, even higher than mine....?! It actually looks like he's using the kick start footpiece as his footrest. I will continue to put more info and photos on the racer thread very soon, as there is lots happening, and I will be reassembling parts for the final time starting next week. I do not want to interfere with this thread too much, as it has been a fantastic one. It has taught me a huge amount about the front end and handling characteristics of these bikes...something that, as I have said before....is a real grey area for most.....even well seasoned Vincent people with years/decades of experience have all learned something from this. I have really enjoyed it.......Greg. [/QUOTE]
