Originally posted by madmav I know what your saying skids! here is how it went! I came out the \M.O.T station and burbled along the A5 towards lichfield, and then turned right along the A515 towards Ashbourne! After about 3 miles, and a steady pace i dropped the old girl a couple of coggs and started to fettle the Bitch into submission
Winding her on, whilst listening to the throb of the pistons working against each other, before geting a modicome of temp into the tyres
it was only then that i felt the bike was submitting to my needs, and entering the corner on a closed throttle, she began to yield, A slight twitch as i forced some more gas into the throttle bodies, and found the sweet spot, as the revs grew high towards the red line! the next bend was a smooth 145 deg curve, that ran off camber,but the Bitch held the line as if it was on rails! A short shift from 4th to 5th mid corner, did upset the old girl , but still she held her head and poise and begged for more From there on in ,it was heaven !, cicking between 5th and 6th and running around the 140's only the sound of the desmo valve gear humming in my un-plugged ear's from there i tipped the old girl into the island, and returned along the same route home! funny how the bike feel's different when you do the same road the other way around!!!!!!!!!!! maybe it's the bias, working against you! or maybe it's the Mind working AGAINST THE BIAS? who really has the answer? all i know is that the bike works in harmony to the way i ride!!
all in all , man and machine in perfect harmony!!
lesson ! do not post on here when you have had a night out on the **** !!!!!!!!!!!!
