Without doing a lot of work try -1F/+1R, it'll give you a little more top end on the straight. :cool:

Fun day, made some more progress, and I can see that i need to be a bit more aggressive off the apex, as well as staying in the throttle longer in the front straight. All in good time though.
Thanks for a great day, Hope to see y'all again soon.

I was the black/green bike you showed a bike to at 2:54. Thanks for uploading, I haven't seen a video of myself ride until now.

I used start/finish as my reference point for braking. I stayed WOT until then. Seemed to work fine for out braking most in I ;)

Also, GoPro? Seems shaky as hell. Are you using that little rubber damper they provide? I received one for Christmas last year and have yet to use it on my bike....fail....

Yeah, I remember that bike, you were rolling around pretty good! Thanks for the tip on the start/finish, my buddy reccomended that to me as well, braking too early is my big problem, I am confident with corner speed, just gotta set the speed later.

I didn't even know that rubber thingie existed til last night, I picked one up at the box store, so i'll see if it makes a difference.

That was my "mechanical lap", I thought something broke midway down the front straight so i got the hell off the track in case i was leaking, you can hear the extra loud rattling sound, turned out the exhaust hanger lost its bolt and must have hit the rear wheel, scared the piss out of me.

Hope to see you out there again soon.
