Watching Jonathan Rea catch highsides is exactly why everyone should ride dirt bikes first. In the dirt you're constantly losing one end or the other. Snapping the bike upright and letting it run off when you need to becomes a muscle memory thing. Wet grass or mud on slicks don't slow down.

I grew up riding dirt bikes in heal Ohio, then didn’t ride any bikes for 25 years until I was nearly 50 years old and bought this V4 and started tracking it, I was very suprised that even after 25 years the 1st time the rear end started slipping at the track on the Superbike my decades old muscle memory just took over and managed it.
 
When I was traveling I went to the tail of the dragon (deals gap). What a cluster ----. Photographers every 5th corner. Trooper parked about halfway. Guys on slicks. The thing with the tail of the dragon is it's slow. Marked 10 and 15 mph corners. So hard to get hurt. Lots of frost heaves so a true home field advantage for the locals. And no I was driving. But if i was a local. Built 2 valve 944 monster on soft dot tires.

Unfortunately I suffer under the delusion that on the very next session I’m going to be a very fast racer on the pointy end of the expert race group…

Nobody is going to check your instagram here, nobody cares, you won’t get social media attention at this forum 😂😂😂

Also, if you wanna race, come to the local tracks, where you can actually run the bike.

I’m probably one of the slowest guys here, but pretty sure I can take ya lol

May 13th Chuckwalla CW with SoCal Trackdays

June 4th Chuckwalla CCW APEX Assassins sun

June 23 Big Willow 2WTD fri

June 24th Streets of Willow CW with 2WTD sat

July 8 Big Willow 2WTD

Sep 17 Chuckwalla CCW 2WTD

Nov 11 Streets of Willow CW with 2WTD

DEC 1 Chuckwalla 2WTD fri

That’s my schedule so far…also if you wanna race for pink slips you better bring two more of your bike or an extra $60k to match mine puff 😂😂😂

PS: It ain’t the bike that makes you fast. I’d be one of the fastest here if that were true lol and I’m not even close to half the guys here.

Your Superlegera wannabe is so funny. V4S but pretend to be Superlegera?

Don’t worry, my bike value total is $70k all mods and labor included.

Let’s take it to the canyons.

So we go to Malibu or angeles crest 9 miles ? Pink slip ?

Change your profile picture, your body position looks like Starbucks squid.

How much did you spend on your wheels?

Asking for a friend.
 
Wait we get to pick the road? Stinson Beach to Point Reyes station on hwy 1. Better yet hwy 1 from the coast to where it joins 101 at legget. Hwy 36 or 96 in Norcal. Hwy 84 behind redwood city. Hwy 141 or 32 Colo. 12 or 93 Id. I'll bring a trailer to load all the bikes in. This string cracks me up. Some knucklehead straffed me one of those fancy BMW's locally awhile ago. So I chased him down (sport touring rear, sticky dot front with about 5500 miles on them). When I pulled my helmet off afterwards "how ....... old are you". Made me laugh.

You’re too noob to even know what your looking at on my bike lol

Double the cost of yours and you’d be about where mine is…having said that, none of that makes anyone fast.

Good luck with your attention seeking Mulholland posing insta stupidity…

Real talk, you social media canyon runners are some unbelievably irresponsible ..... that will in fact get yourselves killed and other people too…the stupidity of riding canyons like that when you can go to the track and REALLY get to what the bike is capable off for $150 relatively safely is mind boggling, almost everyone here is faster than you, most have nicer bikes, and none are as straight up stupid as you….note I did not say daring, I said stupid.

Now quit spamming our forum with childish nonsense and move along, you were passingly entertaining for us to laugh at, but now you’re just uninteresting with an uninteresting bike.

I keep coming back to those memes of the street toughs that walk into the MMA gym…he was fine when he was saying he’s been trying to build a fast bike and likes to go fast…peeps would have given him good advise…but instead he asked the toughest guy in the gym to fight while that guy was giving him some decent advice 😂😂😂

Last but not least, you don’t need that longer swingarm. You better practice to get a better body position first.

Yea, my bike is $70k, I have all the proof receipt. I’ll show it to you when you ready to race me at 9 miles crest

your bike is boring, and so are you


Also, you could have done something interesting in the original post and list your mods and specs, but instead identified yourself as a poser from jump 🤷🏻‍♂️

Yeah old man, let’s race. I can tell that you have money. Let’s race angeles crest 9 miles. I bet my pink slip + $10k cash. Deal ? Saturday next week, 11 pm
 
Unfortunately Ducati and the Panigale in particular attracts ......... like flies to ..... I am sure HighonOxy was here the other week asking about whether a V4S or an R would be best for a first bike
