    Rider on the 765RS was superb. Litre bikes pulled big gaps but he closed in on brakes and corners. The 765RS is more than enough for the street. Latest ones have 130 bhp. That’s not far away as the last versions of the fabulous GSXR 750s

    Did you change to race shift? If so, using which adapter?
    I use my 765 RS on track days as well, but I’m missing the race shift and clip-ons. Is it possible to buy the “Moto 2” version clip-ons to install?

    • @somotorrad5509
      @somotorrad5509  3 місяці тому

      It’s still road shift, which is all I’m used to. I think those Moto 2 clip-ons look like a very nice height, not too extreme. I would be interested to know too.

    What do you mean triumph stop you from changing gearing? Do you just mean it messes with TC? If so, wouldn’t it be better to turn it off for a track days anyway, especially considering how simple of a system it is ?
    Also, have you emailed Woolich about cracking the ECU? The more requests they get, the sooner they’ll do it.

    Awesome, thanks for the upload. I have a 22/23 765RS which I´m eager to try out at the track, but it will happen in due time... About the brakes, you mentioned the fronts were replaced to avoid fading, did you have any negative experience with the standard ones in track riding? Cheers

    • @somotorrad5509
      @somotorrad5509  5 місяців тому

      Hi, no, it was not from a negative experience on this bike, as I fitted these EBC GPFAX pads as soon as I took it on track. It was mainly from previous experiences. Bear in mind that this model comes with the newer Brembo calipers and more importantly an improved ABS setting for Track use. I did not try the previous ‘22 model on track, but I did test ride it on the road and the ABS intervened noticeably sooner than this later model in the Track ABS setting, which is nothing to do with the pads. These racing brake pads work well in this heat range on track, but they are ‘not for road use’ (I don’t know the reason why), they wear quicker and produce loads more brake dust. They do cost a lot more considering how quickly they wear, in much the same way track tyres do. If you are riding in the Novice or Intermediate groups I am guessing the standard road pads will be absolutely fine and you may not get any benefit, only if you are trying to out-brake the fastest bikes in the Advanced group as your only option to overtake like I am trying to do in this video, or chasing lap times, will the difference be worth it. If you are confident and experienced though, research on forums whether you can disable the ABS on your model with a spacer in the ABS sensor or similar. I wish I could do that to this model, as I have done with other bikes. I tried it and again this bike prevents you from making any changes and reduces the engine power! Thanks Euro5 for reducing my fun!

      Thanks. I can’t say I remember that bump there, but they have resurfaced several of the bends recently by the looks of it. It is definitely smoother overall. It’s a shame for me as I like a few bumps to make it more interesting, especially on a smaller bike with less power to manage.

    It looks like you're using the rider edited Track mode. Do you mind sharing what kind of adjustments you like to make to the Track mode settings?

      Hi, thank you. This is the first upload using my newer GoPro 11. I didn’t like the way the stabilisation takes away the true movement of the bike, so I tried it without here. I also used Wide instead Superview, to get a less distorted image but still enough view.
      I think Track and Rider allow you to make similar adjustments, not that there is much to choose from. It’s an absolute must to put it in Track ABS and it is fine, but I wish I could at least turn it off (Euro5!). Previously I used it at Cadwell Park with the Traction Control switched off, just so that I wasn’t losing time whilst wheelying over ‘The Mountain’. To be fair TC is not that necessary on this bike. I have it turned off all the time on the road as I prefer the freedom! But around Brands I thought it was ideal to leave it on and test it out a bit. If you look carefully through the glare you can see it flashing sometimes, but it is not really intervening much. Nice to have as a bit of insurance though and most importantly it does not intrude. I keep the Map or throttle response nearly always in Road even on track, as it is just more progressive and natural feeling. I always use that on road. This time I tried Sport with effectively a quicker action throttle to reduce the amount of wrist movement/angle to give my fore-arm a comfortable angle more of the time. It was okay, not as nice as Road, but it did reduce my arm movement. I hope on future bikes that Triumph fit a display that you actually see whilst moving, especially the RPM, and give people the ability to switch off wheelie control and keep the TC on, like other manufacturers do.

      @@somotorrad5509 I've got the same model bike, Cosmic Yellow and all, although I'm still in the break-in mode and have not been pushing the bike very hard yet. About the throttle response Map, I agree that the Road setting seems much easier to live with than the Sport setting, which I find to be a little too sensitive and abrupt. I like to practice manually blipping the throttle while simultaneously clutching, downshifting and braking, and the Road setting works well for that.
      All of my riding will likely be limited to road use since tracks are few and far between where I live in Thailand, so I may never get to experience riding on a track as you do. Watching your videos is the next best thing to being able to do that myself, and I can learn from your experiences to take advantage of riding this very capable bike.

      Hi from the UK and thank you. I guess my bike was made there. Like most quick-shifters, they are great when riding fast and especially on track for lap-times, but for normal riding on road I think they damage your gearbox over time. Learning how to time gear changes completely manually with the clutch can be much smoother, more satisfying and better for your bike, especially in the lower gears. This bike is refined, so is great for that. Enjoy!

    • @somotorrad5509

      Oh, and the owners manual states that the chain adjustment should be between just 20-30mm of slack. That seems too tight to me and the Triumph technician even stated so. I keep mine close to 35mm or greater, pushing the chain up and down to measure. It feels better and I find the quick-shifter seems to change smoother at that adjustment.

    The 765RS is fast enough for most. I currently ride one. Litre is faster on the straights for sure but especially on the road, the 765 is plenty. One of my favourite vids is a lap of the Nurburgring by a guy on an R6 ua-cam.com/video/5jtGSXef_dM/v-deo.html It's a few years old now but he has that thing pinned for a 7:28 with some traffic. I enjoyed your ride too 🙂 Thanks for posting.

    Bro you ride nice for sure but after watching this video i have a comment on which you should work on . Don't take it offended please . I have the same machine If you are on track please use higher revs . I take it up to 13000RPMS even on street . Your gear change must be longer its a brutal machine . Please rev it harder before changing next gear . Rest is on you . Its just an advice . Everyone knows his machine best . I put 2nd gear after 85 . Third @ 126 . 4th @ 165 and rest you can understand even at street . I am from INDIA . Its much harder for me to do so as Indian Roads are not the best . Please try this & Let me know . I Love your video . Sooner i will post mine .

      Hi there, thank you for your nice comments 👍
      Have you converted your speeds given from KPH to MPH to compare to my UK spec speedometer?
      (2nd gear) 85 kph = 53 mph,
      (3rd) 126 kph = 78 mph,
      (4th) 165 kph = 103 mph.
      I think this may be the difference, let me know what you think?
