So this week I was on the Pannonia Ring, the good thing first about the RS is that I easily got a time of 2.19.00. People with a better hang off can do 2.17 or faster. (I would have done 2.17 if I had just added up my best sector times)

Zitat von Sanemancured im Beitrag #4Zitat von fred_jb im Beitrag #3 Yes I know, but that's not what he said. It does make you wonder how much else in that description might not be wholly accurate?  But maybe just a language issue.Fred |

Zitat von Kardi im Beitrag #1 Excellent riding. If you're hitting the cylinder, I suspect your trail braking is too aggressive for this bike. On the throttle, cylinders won't limit lean. A fellow on the old forum posted photos of both cylinder covers ground down.... He also went without cylinder protection. I guess what I don't understand is why one would go to the track without cylinder covers/sliders? “A good man always knows his limitations.” |

Just my observation from a picture you provided: You've got a knee hanging out/dragging, but now try getting your shoulders on the turn side of your triple clamp. Getting that weight inside the triple clamp will ease the road rash on your cylinder heads.

Zitat von MrVvrroomm im Beitrag #11 Yeah, you're right. the photo is from day one second stint. I did much better on the second day. Those were my first hanging off ever. Before I drove a GS. So there was never any need to go in to an Hang off. but all in all , 20mm more height in the chassis, and a slightly modified cylinder head, and it wouldn't happen. |

I’ll take that picture with me for my track session next week.
Carpe Diem!

I am surprised you didn't have the side panniers on, that would help all of us even more with the information on lean angles.

Zitat von Boxerboy55 im Beitrag #13 Only one minor touch with my RH peg stud (shortened variety), but the hairpin is very steep. And 6 days later, no panniers were dragged either  E3EDE83B-0BA9-4929-8F7D-804263E47EA4.jpeg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte) 89C0FA28-1345-462F-948F-C181BEBE7029.jpeg - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)
