Maybe it’s because I learned to ride out here but I’m much better on the large radius turns than technical slower tight radius curves

2022 is upon us.
I did get some days in out a Chuckwalla, but was back out at jersey first ccs weekend, unfortunately radiator took a hit 3rd session so no racing for me. Going to ditch H20 Galletto rad for Febur. H20 will be repaired then posted up on here for sale soon, I also have some other bits that will go up. Some pics from Austin also. enjoy

Well let me back up by saying I have had no issues withe H20 rad. But it caught a stone in the left hand vertical fin. The whole rad facing has a protective grill on it the vert fin sections do not. While this isn't too likely for a rad to take a hit there that is what happened. The febur doesn't have this vert fins its more standard rad design so in theory should hold up better.

Man that just seems like bad luck, I think you could go years of track days and never catch a rock there, But the one time you do I can see how it would piss you off because that’s ending a track day and if you traveled a good Waze man that would suck

yeah looked at both, H20 ‘seemed’ better engineered for outright cooling, but maybe it’s not as durable?

Finally got the bike back out, big geometry changes as well as the new radiator. Bike was feeling the best it has, took a step back from even looking at lap times and focused on moving around the big bike in different ways which felt really good. NYST has a lot of elevation so front was pushing a bit in 6 + 12 but all in all felt very good

Dig the exit of wheelie hill pic, easy to make good pictures there but scary as hell to try and put down full throttle ASAP, your brake foot lowered and throttle hand positive makes for huge drive and controls the nose to make T8. 3 out of 5 tries I mess that up and bungle T8-10, but the two times I make it are adrenalin producing x10.

There, now I’m exactly the same hahaha
well, except for that knee down and fast thing, I mean I look more like an old geezer out doing a Ducati parade around the track, but other than that EXACTLY THE SAME!
