Samsung Suzuki's Jon Kirkham says he is still sore after his Bitish Superbike crash at Croft but is not letting it detract from his mission of more podiums at this weekend's Thruxton round.
The reigning National Superstock Champion, who won the first race in Yorkshire before tangled with Michael Laverty in the second, is unhappy with the way his results look as he says he is a consistent rider - a record he aims to put right this weekend.
"I'm definitely still sore after the Croft crash. I think if it hadn't been for the air fences I'd be in a much worst state, but anytime two bikes chase you into a barrier you're going to feel a little second-hand.," said Kirkham.
"I'm looking forward to Thruxton, though. I've had some success there with an R1 Cup race win and I nearly won a Superstock race there. So I'll aim to have two solid finishes and see if I can improve my position in the top-six. I'm usually a consistent rider so for my results to read like they have this year - with two DNFs - is not typical me. I'll look to correct that and push on."
