  2. Not aimed at anyone in these photos, as you can’t tell but why does no one use the full track on exit of the loop, genuinely interested. I didn’t watch fast group from there but in inters even fast riders didn’t use all the track
     
  3. I tended to drift out wide then cut back across
     
  4. I think that’s common looking at it, it’s a short straight and tbh I don’t think you gain much by rolling out wide on the side of the tyre. Especially on a big bike, but I could be wrong, better to square it off and make that little straight as quick as possible

  5. It's just where the camera man is, you wouldn't be out wide by that point, it's to close to the apex. I'm in the red/white paint on the outside.

  7. I think the barrier is about the only thing I've not hit so far, actually................. :innocent:

  8. Late apex mate. If the bikes not stood up on exit you can’t use the power on the side of the tyre so there’s no real need to run out wide :)
     
  9. ^ this
     
  10. Because you have to get right over to the right for the next hairpin. So big bikes tend to be late apex and go maybe 3/4 width on exit. Watch bsb - they do that. If using all the exit normally it’s because you’ve stuffed up inside of someone and have too :joy:
     
  11. I am there on Bank Holiday Monday hoping for warmer tarmac,And praying the bike passes the noise test as its a quiet day too so 98dbls eeck..and no baffle to fall back on.
     
  12. How long is your end can Dean? No static test at Donny btw, it’s 98 drive by.
     
  13. From memory I reckon between 350 to 400mm long akrapovic. Didn't realise it was drive by test.so roll off going down the start/finish?
     
  14. @cookster mate how did you get the pro photos so quick? i thought they send a linky out?
     
  15. If it’s that size you will be absolutely fine mate. Flat out everywhere no issues. 98 drive by is about 103 static.
