Smooth riding and consistent lapping at around 1min 50sec. If you're into your track days, have you considered reducing the overall gear ratio so that you can use 6th on the straight? Reduce your overall gear ratio by around 160/180 - ie two teeth off the front sprocket. This stops you from being between gears - pulling tall gears as the next one down would be too low. Letting the revs drop down on a big bike means that you climb the steep part of the torque curve on corner exits - always risky.
Crikey - I've seen less cement in a blue circle yard !.
