Nup, they still test for racing as well but they are more lenient than the track days.

My understanding is that they are supposed to test at 2/3rds (can't remember) revs at a distance of 1m from the can and at a 45 degree angle. On the track day the guy made me hold the bike at 8k and practically climbed in the can with the noise pressure meter! I just scraped through with Leo Vince cans on the 620.

On raceday I measured a lot less as he actually did stand back etc and I held the revs at 6k'ish.

Ali failed on the track day and amused us all with his drilling of his end can and subsequent 'mechanics' :D

Even more amusing was when he shot the baffle out of the can later on!

:lol:

I remember following Phil on that day and seeing a bit of smoke every now and then. We came in and he had a leaky fork seal. The guys threw a rope or something over a tree behind us to lift from the yoke and got the fork changed.

All in all a very amusing day!!
