Had a good look Mal at several minutes footage traveling behind you and I couldn't really see anything.

Did you get any useful footage from that thing Jeff? Of is it like an aircraft's black box ... for analysis of non-roo-tine events ?

Several times I was close enough to see smoke Mal, but I saw none on the vid. Not to say there was none, but I can't remember seeing it either. Pete's bike was smokin' it up as well, so things get a little confusing.

Think it was the left side Mal,
Not sure whether it was during back off or hard acceleration,
either way we wern't just cruising.

Have you still got your DIY colonoscopy kit Mal?

Mal, from my point of view the smoke was most evident on back off. And it was quite evident after a heated run (naturally, I guess).
So I was smokin' too... hmmm... more items for the to do list.

Nahhh Jeff. AFAIK Rings n valves in there are still well seated. Hopefully a few more years yet before I need a leak down test!
