Hi Gavin - I think we met at JE yesterday. I went down to the Bury track this morning with another couple of chaps, Rickyktm and Spennyyk2 and had much the same problem! It was my first drive in 18 years with that new K1 you saw yesterday. It went great but the big problem was definitely grip roll! I was, perhaps foolishly, running yellow mini pins but they're the only tyres I've got yet - just wanted to make sure everything worked, and it did!
Driving came back to me like second nature - really quick, but because of the grip I really had to be careful on the sticks! I had a go with Spenny's SX3 which was a little better for having part worn yellow mini spikes which could break loose a little. But I definitely can see what you're saying! If you get any good advice, let me know - sure I'll be down there at some stage for a club meet!
