Certainly hard work punting a heavy Bandit around, but jack up links on the rear help the big girl turn in

that still spins me out that it got that bad!!
the particular session i was on to get 200/tank was through twisties,and the high speed run on the same journey invovled me,and two R1`s,and we averaged 200km/h for 35min,and covered about 115km on the high speed part of that run..so that was running at high noise for a long time.

I can assure you keeping the throttle pinned, hard braking and then pinning it again will use bulk fuel. The bike was coming into the pits with the fan going flat out, so I was thrashing it. I was getting wheelspin through turn 2 and the rear was chirping and dancing into turn 4 and 6 on the down shifts, I had to ride the clutch to use it a bit like a slipper to stop the bike getting total rear lock up. I've ran off turn 6 previously getting a little over anxious on the down shifts on a previous track day.

I was managing to keep up with an Aprillia 1000 naked and a few R6's, so I was pretty happy with that effort. The Bridgestone 023 rear was wearing pretty well, I left the tyres with close to standard road pressure and they got up to temp in about 2 laps.

By the end of the day my legs were killing me as normal riding you hardly get off the bike. Just think about doing 300+ squats
