Before I started racing I had a fireblade and a Honda Sp2 which were both road bikes and both mint condition, very fast and I liked them very much, I used to be able to lap Brands at not much under a 1:00.
The very first time I rode my class B bike I did a :59 and it only had 43bhp, and standard foot pegs which really limited lean angle,
I did a TD there last year on my 160bhp 999s and only managed a high :53's this year on a very unsorted 620 i did 55 or 56 or something,
The big fast bikes are much much faster, they have better brakes, weigh less and better suspension
- BUT -
They are easier to crash and cost more if you crash them. this slows most of us down a bit I think. |
