Bad luck, but thanks for posting. Hope the damage wasnt too bad.

What a shame. You were going so well for a novice. Nice and smooth. Keep at it and you will get that win soon :)

What tyres are you running in this race? Just out of interest really. I was at Brands a few days back and have Metzeler M9RR road/race tyres and was lapping ~58 seconds to ~62 seconds, traffic depending. Just seeing wearanouts I might shave some time if you lot are running slicks (which I imagine you are). Bike: Daytona 675

how much damage was on the bike from that?

Object fixation with the rider in front. Not using more of the drying line and pacing your pass. Clearly faster but not smooth enough. Keep at it.
