Seeley Honda #SH7-672

Zunspec:
Hello Steve,

There are 3 chicanes on the circuit as far as I know, all 3 damn tight to negotiate.  Pre chicanes the lap speeds around Castle Combe were 100mph +, and that was 35 years ago.  There is also precious little run off so I guess something had to be done to slow things down a bit  ;D

Cheers  Geoff

The one just before the start/finish straight. They told us they only put it in for the bikes (to slow us down...)

I don't know how the 200bhp sportsbike boys handle it but I was wheelying out of there in 2nd on my Tiger  ;D

Zunspec:
I have been out in the sunshine with the Classic Bike magazine chappies today doing the photo shoot of the Seeley.  The feature should appear in the October edition (published last week in September).  The weather was glorious and we had a great time, Gez (rider/journo) and Tim (photographer) were both top blokes 8).  My only complaint, Gez wasn't giving it enough welly and their budget for leather'an lycra clad models was already spent for this month ;D.

Here is one of my photos of Tim taking photos lol.  Also link to my flickr.com album page which also has a bit of video.

Fantastic looking bike Geoff, sounds great too!, yes he could have given it a bit more but hey, I'll get the magazine when it's out
PS only thing missing from the post was a photo of you taking a photo of him taking a photo of the bike but we can't have everything I suppose! 😄

SteveD CB500K0:
Yes Gez (Gerard Kane) is a top bloke. I think he's a member on here as he joined in order to post looking for specific models to run in the mag.
