  • hi m8 i got a track day coming up soon at donnington park are you aloud a camera on the bike or not. and what was your top end on there, its going to be my first time on a track day im goin round on a honda fireblade cbr900 looking to reach about 170mph on it, and is it worth buying thoses mushrooms for the sides of the bike

    cheers

  • helmut Cam's no problem there..

    Its a fast track too so guess you wont be far off.. why you looking to reach 170? just ride ya bike round the track FAST and see what it feels like.Think mine was bout 140 down back straight..

  • oil on the track at a guess.

    look at the cement line down the straight, thers been a spillage of something and he may have got some on his tyre/marshalls might have missed a bit.

    or hes really just ham fisted

  • Yeah you got it! a 2 stroke blew its gutts out early on in the day, he only kept riding it...hence the long line as you said...we only had a small gap to squeeze through all day.

see all

  • Just Flicked him off lol Not the first, not the last ;-)

  • loser ha ha

  • what are you talking about, americans dont know what corners are like!

  • Once the throttler is turned on its turned on evenly smoothly and constantly throughout the remainder of the turn. XD

  • Big and big. Race tires are more forgiving and have more feel. The slide away softly and there is margin for backing off before its to late. As a biginner this advantage will still be hard to use since it takes some practice. Biginners are often slow in corner and at end of corner very hard on throttle. Then any tire will come lose.

  • is there such a big difference betweer street and race tires ?

  • The fact that the guy has headlight on his bike tells you that hes probably running on street tires. Also judging by speed and ridingpos i say hes pretty new. Riding on any street tire are hazardous and on top of that adding skills of a biginner makes it iven more so. These things happen when ju get just a little carried away. And it happends to everybody.

    A wild guess i say he was riding on michelin. Any michelin tire drops the bike like a pistol shot. Even the slick tire.

  • will your bike do 170

  • he needed to drop his head and shoulder closer to the floor if your knee is going down... look at the angle his bike is at... right?

  • Sorry to see the guy come off, always sad.

    Nice riding,bike sounds great
