Good to see you back riding fully
Like the cleaner lines also. Going day to night must take a lot of changing to get used to. Did you know the track well?
Thanks! Riding at night is weird, all your reference points tend to shift. I´ve only had a few laps with Bimota trying their bikes and I´ve had 1 trackday there (night), most of which was instructing novices so I haven´t had a chance to really push the bike at night until the race. I know the track a lot better now!
Night racing looks like fun.
How did he lose his caliper bolts? Forgot safety wire?
Dumbass doesn´t use threadlock.. none of my friends do, they think i´m crazy to do so. I´m just glad he didn´t crash because of this.
Looks like a blast!!
The shadows on the snow night skiing always psyched me out. I can only begin to image what happens on a track going a lot faster.

What are you running for racing skins? My new 749 is destined to become a track queen
and haven't decided what race plastic to go with.
Rear sets? Are they adjustable?

The shadows are a nightmare, really.. My race fairings are from
www.ricambi-weiss.de in Germany. They cost 189EUR a full set including shipping from Germany to Spain. Good quality kit that fits perfectly the first time round with no adjustments.
The rear sets are SSR racing ones from the USA. They are adjustable on a eccentric adjuster for pretty much everything and have race shift pattern. The brake pedal is waaay too long.
The 749 is designed for the race track, I´ll vouch for that! I´m after a 749R now. That should be a REAL blast.
