First Track Session
This is a must for any 1098 owner, I was amazed at how well and responsive the 1098 is on track, in fact we're talking about a totally different bike around the track, cornering is a breeze at high entry speeds, exiting a corner and getting back on the saddle is with the greatest of ease, I'm speechless. Done track days on an R6 which I thought would be a pretty hard bike to beat around a track, especially with the cornering ability, and the high rev limit, the 1098 far exceeded my expectations around track, out of a corner once you open the throttle this baby sings all the way to the break markers which comes in no time, slight touch of the front break before the corner entry, take your arse off the seat lock in your visual radar at your exit point and it's on! I'm recommending every 1098 owner to get on a track with their bikes for a totally thrilling experience. I think the only down point about the bike and performance was a slipper clutch, this I'm ordering today before the next track event and will keep you posted as to my experiences. Open road calling!
