Getting faster. Need to work on some trail braking into 6 and to stay in the power on 7,8,9.
 
Looking good! 6 is so forgiving on entry but takes a set to really attack it. I'm in the low 1:40.xx high 1:39 and I'm boggled by a sub :30 lap there.

You just using a GoPro sticker mount in front of the tank cap? I like your position since it picks up your hands.

Great lap! We're running very similar times. What front fork internals did you swap to and is your rear setup oem? I took my 1199S to NYST a few weeks back, since my track bike was in the shop, and my setup was a travesty.

When you had the electronics was it hard for you to get the proper rider sag? Seems like the electronic Ohlins forks have limited adjustability. Also curious if you're using an autoblipper.
 
1. Yes this is just a tank mount in front of the fuel cap and the lap time was 1:35.3 but I know the bike has a 1:32 in it.

2.The electronic adjusters are removed and the sag is set to an aggressive 20mm as I only weigh 145-155 Lbs. with full gear.

3. Never messed with the electronic adjusters. This bike has only been tracked with the aftermarket triples and manual adjusters.

4. No auto blipper but I do have a nice slipper clutch so I can smash from 5th to 2nd as fast as I can physically actuate the shifter.

Thanks for the positive feed back. I ride with guys sub 1.29 so I am the turtle in the group.

it's a tough track for a big bike.

I'm faster around on a 675.

I had an awesome 2011 daytona 675. I grenaded the transmission and the ducati was always something I wanted to try. The 675 was way easier to carry speed with and enter corners faster but it was slow on the straights and it made you work harder to do the same pace as the big bikes.

The lap record was smashed the day after I was there. I have watched his video enough times to determine he is not human. R1 on qualifier sc0 rear and sc1 front. I run sc2 front and rear.
 
Id like to think that my pace is within 10 seconds or 10% of the pros. The reality is that it can be 5% the bike and 5% the rider. I do not think a 1199s panigale can go much faster than a 1:32. I think the chassis is too stiff. Heavy trail braking transmits all of the flex into the steering stem and has no where to go. A motorcycle with a frame will flex and twist. The same applies for corner exit where a frame will absorb bumps while the bike is transitioning from max lean angle to upright with linear power delivery. The ducati just does not bend. I feel every bump and skip. Turn 13 has bumps that the lap record rider smashes over like they are not there. If I hit them its a guaranteed power cut with TC. Id love to blame myself 100% but at this level we have to trust our equipment and I do not think the 1199 or 1299 for that matter can go faster than a 1:32. I will try my hardest but eventually the bike wont let you.

I hear you, that bike is famously hard to ride and at a track like nyst doenst necessarily favor big fast bikes. I am on a 959, currently pb is 140:55 and my goal is is to get sub 140 by end of summer which is rapidly approaching. My goal being the same top 10% of the field, which I thought was 128 and change!! Still not far off even at 1:26.5... hopefully see you up there, I have the 959 with the Marlboro gp livery
