So I went to France last Sunday to visit the Pau-Arnos track. Only 3 km long but perfect for 250s.
Beautiful day, maybe too hot, and ended up chasing and taking over a couple of bigger bikes. Quick guys were turning at 1'30" and I was lapped at the beginning of the day at 1'51". Think by the end of it I was below 1'50". Honestly, I really enjoyed the day and was really sad when I saw the last red flag.
I do not have good pictures to post but I have been recorded on video (which I do not have yet with me), only these two of the tyres. Yes, still not hanging out enough, but all will come in time.
The bike performed very well. I can not comment on the rear side, not noticed it at all. But there's one hairpin where I whish front end was more robust, I mean it held the bike better. And I was overgeared with std sprokets. Out of this hairpin first was too short and second too high. I just hate how all bikes pulled away exiting corners but I could keep pace with most inside them.
Well this is a novice report from my 2nd track day. Next sceduled is 26th october in Motorland (yes, moto gp track) and you are all invited since there is an event called 'classic motor' and NSRs are admitted as clasics.
PS Do you think these tyres have any life left?
PPS I think my bike was the most admired bike in the day, and there were more than 150!
