very unamerican of you to defer your gratification 😁

I was supposed to be born on the isle of mann not America lol to many rules here lol I want to bring the bike there someday and just ride the course even at reg speeds just to see it
 
That would make for a cheaper track day...
Not really to much cheaper, we ride with a guy with a R6, after suspension mods, chain and sprocket change, he is not quite Ducati money yet, but he is in it pretty deep.

Now if you plan on crashing a lot, by all means by, it will save you a lot of coin.
 
You are still not fully answering the question. I ask why and you basically said — cause. How is an inline 4 better than an R model Ducati? What an R6, R1, gsxr 600/750/1000 — what makes it better? What do you ride?

linear power delivery. you dont need to think about where engine rpms need to be to ride fast.

R6's mods make it 100% better bike than stock Panigale R, so its not like for like comparison.

utter nonsense

Thats why I pull him in the straights on a S, and his mods only even out to the stock suspension the R has stock.

You confuse your personal opinion with knowledge.

Its never the bike anyway, its always the rider that makes the most difference.
 
Fit protectors and case savers and do track
Pass on that, there are mixed feeling about those add ons causing more damage.


These bikes are super fun on track if ridden right.
No doubt!!!! I love mine, 10 years beating on it, and you can be lazy when your beat down and they still work intuitively.

Wish I had wheely control and cornering abs on my 13, but I get by ;)
