Adam at Frotis is fantastic. Him and his dad, Dave from HM Racing, took the time out of their busy schedule while on the road supporting BSB to help me spec my s1000rr build. Couldn’t recommend them enough. Real class.

Mind calibration with modern bikes is unreal, so many things to compute & learn & put into practice

I love these videos, always learn something new. It must have felt so odd for the throttle butterflies to be open long after you'd closed the grip! Looking forward to more! Cheers! Dan

Great explanation of the graphs, what they were showing before and then after the remapping. Glad y'all are gaining on it. Cheers from the U.S.!

That was very interesting. I have zero track experience and want to try at some point. While I will never reach this level of proficiency the openness of the video shows that it can be approachable. It seems that there are others who will be willing to pass on advice and knowledge. Great video!👍

Great insight. Cadwell is scary at the best of times let alone on a s1000rr M for the first time. Brave man,. All the best for the Races and I look forward to more videos.

Really good stuff. Interesting about the suspension settings, I'll experiment with more preload and less damping on the Speed Triple 1200 to see how that feels.

That’s really interesting re those throttle butterflies. Great explanation of it all.

Great work Michael. You deserve a lot more subs. But I kinda like it that the idiot masses aren’t here (yet) 👍🏻

Nice job. You're an inspiration to us all especially us geezers over 40 (I'm 52 and recently purchased probably my 7th R1). Keep up the great work 💪and good luck with some podiums!

Last weekend I followed a guy on a Fireblade down a very popular twisty road nearby, was the fastest I've ever gone. It was all I could do to keep up but he looked like he was out for a leisurely Sunday ride! I pulled next to him at the hangout spot at the end of the road to thank him for the tow, when he took off his helmet I was blown away that he was easily in his 60s. And here I was thinking maybe I'd have to buy a Harley when I hit 50

Excellent stuff Neevesy, glad you're getting the bike sorted, and firing on all four cylinders in the corners too now.

No, no, no, you just needed to re-jet the carbs and lube the throttle cable!

U should come to Latvia to Biķernieki race track. It amazing track in middle of capital. Fast and narrow. I can see one lap on my channel, I do it on big GS Adventure.

Hi, Can you make a video with all your electronical settings and why you chose those settings? Keep the vids coming! 🥳

Amazing how they can tell what is happening from that data. Sure shows their shear amount of experience. I wonder how you would get into such a field as a 'newbie', perhaps just get lucky with an internship, and get all this knowledge passed down from the gray beards?

@xtralight1 3 жыл бұрын

As always, very interesting information about settings the new S1000RR for the racetrack! The way I get it, before the new settings, you did not have enough weight transfert between front and back as one of the problem, since you mentionned tire wear in the back?

Or maybe he had too much dumping and not enough spring? Picture the bike chassis staying level as the wheels track the uneven ground. Springs push the wheels onto the ground. Damping restricts the speed of the wheel moving. So this can cause the chassis to move, but you want this to be fairly level. Seems like the rear wasn't always making strong contact, so increasing spring preload has helped push it harder. I've never worked as a suspension tech, I'm just curious. I think springs should keep the chassis fairly level while damping should be just enough to stop pogo effect. That's my theory, and limit :-)

tbh, i would just keep with the bike that got me the fastest time. After all this ones just catching up to that, you could have been much faster on the other bike.
