Being the safety-Sally that I am, I noticed that the current suits hip armours were very thin and flimsy. I sewed on thicker ones I had left over from some Alpinestars gear. Rider said they're unnoticeable when riding. Quite a hassle to sew them between the leather and inner lining.

Yesterday we were at Motopark. The shifter wouldn't co-operate. The bike does 157km/h and no more. The track has a 4th gear corner exit followed by 1000 metres flat out. That really reveals small bike's limitations. Most tracks in Finland are twistier.

Camera mount **** the bed so I'm not sure if anything is uploadable. Best time was 2:03 which I think is OK this being his first time there. Mid day I changed 47 to 46T rear sprocket, he was pretty close to limiter in 6th.
