Yep, that was me. In the afternoon I had to switch to my Blue R1 because a side fairing mount broke on the SV. When I say fairing mount I mean custom bent piece aluminium with a hole drilled in each end. First session out on the R1 I was saying "I thought there was a straight here" twice a lap. I am glad your tires worked out well. I may be down at NCBike on Oct 19 or 20th, but not sure if they will have a tire vendor. Sorry Anthony and his friend had a bit of a rough day. Bike issues suck, but not as much as crashing. Glad at least Anthony was able to sort his fueling issue and get most of the sessions in.
I'm laughing at the "I thought there was a straight here thing." I'm new here, but I'm glad to have learned that Gixxer.
