Today was very much a 'getting to know you day' between me the FireBlade. Until today, the longest I've ridden it for was about 45mins and that was during the test ride, so today I headed down to Poole Quay for the Bike Night. Meeting some mates down there is always a good thing, but due to work commitments tomorrow, I couldn't stay long, which was a real shame. I've been to Bike Night before, but never actually on a bike, usually because I was down in the area on holiday or spending time with the in-laws, who I get on really well with.
The bike performed really well, but after the second fuel stop, about an hour before I got home, the bike started to generate a high frequency vibration and a noise that suggested an issue with the way the chain was running over the front sprocket. In all likeliness the chain probably got very hot and subsequently very dry, but I'll keep an eye on it over the next few days. Here are some pics, including one of my dinner. I'm knackered, I'm going to bed.
