Now, that's just not right.. come on, give some info..

What do you think? Are you good to go? Running like you want it?

Don't just say you tested.. Man, that's such a tease..

the real surprise was the pilot (me) more than the bike.
i raced karts for some years at the end of the 70's and the early 80's , i got a cap-10 fly-license , i tested bmw M3 and bmw M6 in the last 4 years but i never been in a circuit with a bike . i developed my riding experience since i was a teenager in the street only , never racing it.
what i want to do now is to make more track-pratice as possible and maybe try a race in some quite class . i found out that two wheels instead four in a circuit is .....i can't describe it.
the bike: it was great , fueling was ok , the map was a little bit rich at low charge and mid's rpm ( not an important region in this use).not overeating , maybe i'll need a softer rear spring and a better front brake pump, i'll try to lower the front end and most important thing is to change my diablo corsa tires with a new set of track tires . negative i broke the bellypan and i need a new one .
to give you an idea .....there was a guy with a rsv 1000 aprilia i followed him to learn the track and i noted that in the straight my bike was a little beat faster than him . out of the corners the difference was more noticeable ...of course.
great Harley powered BUELL.
Bye Alessio
