Nice riding!

Does the cbr come off corners harder than your v4?

I think it's more to do with the rider, than the bike. He takes a line on corner entry which is marginally wider than me, which gives him a better exit line (kind of straighter), which allows him to get to full throttle sooner. It's great to follow someone like him though, you can see where you need to improve.
 
interesting to hear that the R turns better in the context of alvaro going back and forth b/w Ducati and Honda. I remember in one of the interviews he gave in 19 he was griping about how the V4R understeered. not sure what he thinks about the honda... although he seems to be having the opposite trajectory w it when it comes to getting comfortable
 
Keeping it or selling? Get the front end sorted?

Also who makes the GoPro mount?

Edit: Never mind. Same trajectory. Sad that the dude is not a closer...

From what I heard Bautista was having trouble on the brakes and initial tip in with the the too stiff headstock. From watching Redding in Portimao he was constantly running wide.
 
^Yea, according to the commentators he used a wider line to take advantage of the V4's power band and delivery. This also allowed him to maintain higher speeds as well. Loris Baz used very similar lines in race 2 as I recall WorldSBK
 
If we want to compare with s or sp version, would Cbr go better or v4s? Even though Ducati is better in technical data, it outperforms the Cbr V4 in straight road races I've watched. What is the reason for leaving behind? Or is it not the best and fastest v4?
