If you aren't subscribed do it, the man is a racing legend but to me this shows just how capable a stock bike is
Lots of other channels I follow say change this change that ,well watch what he does at donnington and his Mrs is very funny

Just watched one of his then saw this thread. The bike is so capable. Every Japanese bike needs a brake upgrade (pads and lines) in my opinion because they dont feel great BUT pull on the lever a little harder and they are just as good as the upgraded stuff.. it's just a personal preference.

I was pleasantly surprised how close I got to his Donington time though!

An absolute classic night out ,we rode over on the Friday did the evening session got completely wasted on the night
Got up early did the full day on track then rode home
It's all van's tyre warmers and chasing lap times , now such a shame

Some might say that about what engineers charge too :D but it's about what it's cost you and what you've had to do for you to be at the level you can offer that expertise init?
