  1. Dilemma. What would you do? 
    #1
    Last night I got asked to ride this: http://racefit-legend.com/post/76862498600 at Cadwell in september.
    I'm not new to the track and have no problem mixing it up on my own bike but this is a one off and has been nearly a year in the making.

    I'd love to ride it but I'm not sure I could live with myself if anything happened to the bike regardless of if I was to blame or not.

    What would you lot do?

    Do it. It was built to ride why not be the one to ride it.

    they obviously have faith in your abilities and they also know what could possibly go wrong and they are still asking you to ride it. they are accepting the risk and i would personally do it

    As per above comments. Go for it and dont give it a second thought
    When it's your time to go it's your time, so don't let it catch you.

    As per above......Go for it!
    It's been built for a purpose - let it be what it is.

    Ride it, wouldn't have been offered if the owner wasn't 100% sure they wanted to. That's a proper bike, I would definitely give it a go although looks a bit beyond my meagre capability, I'd want it for a few sessions to try and get used to it ; )

    Enjoy

    They've asked you to do it and they obviously trust you...............It's meant to be

    If the owner / builder has every faith in you then why doubt yourself ?
    I'm sure as a group you all know the risks as to what could happen and understand that, you've been asked by them to have the honour of being pilot then go for it, if you don't ride it someone else will.
