I think that is why i want the 300 kit, more torque. The track days are awesome, blitzing 90% of big bikes on the old as 250 two stroke freaks a lot of people out, the 300 should help get that last 10%! (evil grin!)
Nothing quite like riding along the side of a queue of 1000's and 600's stacked up waiting to go into the corner, doing ones classic late braking, going up the inside, and repeating at the next corner...Ad Infinatum, or at least until the flag is waved for the end of the session
Then they moan about how you're slowing them down, and they're such heroes for being able to twist the throttle on the straights and go flapping along Ewok style (Return of the Jedi... Classic scene) past us 'slow' people.
Funny how I passed the loudest moaner at the hairpin. (Ruapuna)
And next saw him back in the pits after the session
This scene was from a trackday a couple of years ago. The big bike boys- except a few notably dedicated nutters and some true heroes- are a bunch of wusses on trackdays. Might be something to do with the insurance not covering closed circuit use.
We Few, on our dedicated trackbikes, need not fear such retribution. If we biff it, we just load it in the van and take it home to fix it...again
