I'm working in middle east and get to ride for some 20 days every 2 months but there was winter and few bad weather leaves and very few days on the track over last 10 months and all on bad and/or cold weather.
I had a Dorso 750 as a first bike and after I started going to the track I reached it's limits quickly (was lapping local track at 1.30) so I decided to get an R1 (sound was the reason) . Immediately I was doing 1.25 and already on a second set of tires and with few tips from local racers i got down to 1.19. Lap record is 1.12 something. It all seemed fast as fck, eye popping braking, knee down everywhere, screaming from joy under the helmet while wheelieing out of some turns. I got a 1 piece suit and everything else, started upgrading the bike.....
And now after 10 months I went out and could barely do 1.25, even after 20 days of road riding I just couldn't make it work on the track. It would come back in few more sessions but I had to go back to work....
I'm just bored and whining a bit :)
Here's a road riding video. Few more slow and fast riding vids on my YT if anyone wants to watch http://youtu.be/a1q1yolSbdA
Cheers
