Been a difficult season to predict I have quite a few dnf's from riders you wouldn't expect to crash.

I had forgotten all about this. I've not logged in since I created my team.

The latest scores on the doors

Timing would be key to ensure the weather was suitable or could be more like a boating trip than a road trip.

I think I already want one
To stay competitive in wsb it needs at least 200 Bhp in road trim,I expect auto blipped and revised traction control,I hope for ohlins and semi active suspenders

I can believe it guys they were absolutely mega on the road must be mind blowing on track. They are very similar to the Racetec's K3's I run on the track bike by all accounts. With warmers I'm knee down first corner. Never ever thought I would be doing ...

R1 - Basic road bike
R1S - Sports version of above
R1M - full on blinged up missile.

I wanted traction control on my commuter because of the uncertainty of road conditions. Having the choice to vary or switch off TC makes my ride a little bit more comforting when I'm going to and from work.

No doubt it'll be tested in the coming months as the weather gets wetter and colder.

I think you were quicker cause there was less traffic :) On the road there's only so much you can use I've not had the traction control cut in yet on the Ducati which I'm pleased with it feels like it has a well sorted chassis and it can cope easily with ...

... like having old skool and the latest electronictrickery stuff. I would agree though that a well set up old skool bike will be just as quick on the road but then its not all about speed on the road but how riding the bike well makes you feel. I'm still tempted to take the 748 on track next year ...

... I was definitely as quick if not quicker on a well set up 130 bhp superbike than I was on a 190 bhp missle with all the electonics on the same roads over the last few days. Even with all the electronic management in the world the top end of a 190 bhp sportsbike is largely redundant on the road. ...

I wouldn't expect much difference on the road between the two bikes, at least not without a full frontal lobotomy!

Get in touch with the UK distributor they will sort you out Rossgo.

Totally agree it is specia, we are only a minority on the road, and we get heads turning everywhere we go, got to love the feel of that!

Enjoy your afternoon/ evening it's bright blue skies definitely got to make the most of it!

The infamous Snake Pass.

Dam good road but can catch people out unfortunately as yesterday's accident was testament too.

You should do, you went up and down it 15 times

I recognise that road.

And yeah, that bike is a timeless classic IMO.

I'm going to track some down for the trackie. I need all the protection/help I can get.

It looks good on the ZX6 Kwacky and it's functional, the fact you might never have the need for it on the road is moot, cause you just might.

cant see the point of them for road use apart from bling, in a racing/track day context i can vouch for them, ive had too many near misses for me to justify fitting one, and can name people ive raced with that wouldnt of crashed if they had of had one fitted, the most recent being last weekend.
