The beauty of the V Twin is the ability to reach down low and utilize the torque curve. My in-line four bikes I have to downshift often and keep in a higher rev range to make power. The KTM has a lot of engine braking. My lap times went down when I stayed in a taller gear through turn 3-4-7-9 and 10. This was the last session of the day. My front tire was spent and pushing wide. I was a second off pace. Thanks for watching!
Love seeing a friendly Rc8 rider 🤙
Thanks!
I still need to come up -____- I'm so lazy right now though :(
Let me know when!
I feel like you can downshift more often and break wayyyyyy later, should be at least later than the S1000RR if you consider your weight
