Chasing 600's/1000s 😎 Oulton Park - CB500

[@Jaded-Wanderer]

Nice laps mate. Oulton Park, my local and favourite UK track.

[@Jaded-Wanderer]

White helmet guy looked quite quick.

[@SuggyRacing]

Yeah it was quite a fast group that day to be fair. I was by far the slowest bike in the group. Got held up a few times though in corners. I was mainly there to learn how to use race shift, which seemed to be ok in the end.

Good effort 👌. Did a track day here last August on striple rs, top track also, cadwell a corker 👍. Might need to change my cb500 into a race bike 🤔

[@SuggyRacing]

Cheers mate. Yeah it's good fun. I might have to take my 600rr and see if I'm any better after riding the CB so much 😁 Yeah do it, it's a fun bike to thrash about, especially at cadwell

[@chrisdadigger1018]

I’d love to ride a cb 500 race bike. Bet it handles very well.

[@SuggyRacing]

They are fun to ride. They can be a bit bouncy with suspension but they handle well for a very basic old bike. More fun than anything 😄

[@1AOR1]

Do you just run a standard clutch on these?

[@SuggyRacing]

Yeah standard clutch as we aren't able to change anything on the engine for racing. Only replacing the clutch plates. 👍

[@rideroundandstuff]

What tires do you use?

[@SuggyRacing]

Dunlop Sport smart TT. You can get more grippy ones but these are what we have to use for racing. They are good though

[@rideroundandstuff]

@@SuggyRacing thanks!
