I'm now seeing the point in this but not In road trim and 169bhp
215 Bhp and 170kg,o yes please

Cheers for the suggestion D but I tried that when I bought the GT Air and I haven't got a shark shaped head plus I want a race helmet as already have an every day road/sports touring helmet with integral dark visor.

Cheers for the suggestion though.

I wouldn't, I think it will only end up badly if I tried (in the same circumstances road closed, know the route etc) that exceeds my talent by about a million haha!!

Holy crap! That's a hell of a commute.

I hope they do a lower spec version that is affordable...ish for regular people.

I would have one in a heart beat and use on the roads no problem. Totally agree it's a machine to be used not art to be admired.

Carbon fibre tank ,lush
It must be special it's got those silly lever guards fitted

I sincerely hope these don't end up in display cases and on walls.

Its made to be used and ridden so hopefully we might see some at trackdays in the future just as many Desmosedicis are.

Listen to the noise.

I wonder how much it costs compared to current road surfaces?

Sounds good. I guess they have to ig down pretty far to create enough are for the water to dissipate into. It's a large pdebble design ion the tarmac so wonder how grippy it is. Also I would imagine there's a large frost/ice damage potential.

It's a road Duke. There are dicks on every road unfortunately. Just a case of trying to go when it's quiet, finding some space on the circuit / toll road and using your mirrors well.

Seems like a great idea. What do you think?

Jesus Christ that is crazy fast. You've really got to have a screw missing to do that on a public road I think

Was going to say the same the A44 is a great road. People do hammer it down there mind!

... its it ability to react to the bike's deceleration, acceleration and direction changes in a millisecond and keep the tyres gripped to the road or track. And the more power the bike has, the more the forces will be through the suspension, so on the latest litre sports bikes with 200bhp, ...

... IMAG0241.jpg Came off during the annual fest with the 675.cc lot around Leicestershire... About 5 miles from Melton Mowbray, on an unfamiliar road was going over a crest and somehow upset the bike which led to an , ahem, "tank slap" and by the time I'd recovered it I was on the slippy ...

certainly on a short circuit Brookes has the advantage , I think with a little time he could be as good as Dunlop on the road although I'm not sure that anyone will ever ride with as much commitment on the roads as Dunlop does

... recon that used nearly as much oil as petrol. Interesting about the comments on how an engine is used and lifetime. The track bike has never been road legal, and if it was a hire bike in a former life then it's spent must of it's life in 20 minute sprints bouncing of the limiter. I'm no professional, ...
