It will be interesting to see some dyno charts on your bike.... Regards!
yeah I hear you for sure. I ride about 10 to 15,000 miles per your and about 2000 track miles per year. A lot of riders think they are Valentino Rossi until they actually get to the track and realize they’ve got a ways to go. I love track riding and to get a chance to talk to all sorts of different riders of different levels. Some of the bikes that show up make me smile. I’ve seen guys show up with a rig that’s nothing short of amazing and then they pull out a V4R and ride scary as hell. LolAfter working at trackdays for the better part of a decade, it always surprises me how many people consider themselves " above average". Not a knock on your skill by any means... more just an observation when some folks show up with hard-edged bikes and minimal skill, thinking they can ride them. I've scooped a lot of Italian hardware out of the runout.
There's something undeniably visceral and rewarding about riding a bike that's always trying to kill you.
Don't know quite how to feel about that.. sadness for the bike? Was it quietly screaming as its tires' edges were left shiny and its tach never sniffed at redline? At least it is being ridden, though poorly, as most of those sweet Desmos are parked in collector's garages.We had a dude show up with Ducati-branded everything, from his pit setup to his top-tier Dainese gear. Even had the branding on his trailer. Rolled a brand-new Desmosedici out of his trailer, and promptly turned C-Group lap times. Dude literally put his feet down in T4 at Pacific.
Money ≠ skill.
