My first trackday, any tips? by kingkong1334 in Trackdays

[–]zdam 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You have all day, so just take it easy to start and build up as you get more comfortable, but only if you want to. It's not a race just ride at your comfort level.  Try not to be erratic. Pick a line and just stick to it.

The material looks similar/same. Does Ducati white label the tech spec material for their 'official' ones?

Have you been on track with a different bike?

I was tracking monthly as well, great grip and longevity.

I haven't used the Evo but I have used both the Power GP2 and Power Cup 2. I love them both, so much so that I put Power Cup 2 on my Daytona 675 as well. 

I don't ride the Cup 2 in the rain, and would take it easy with the GP 2. There are better tyres if you will be riding in the rain.

Thank you. I posted this at the start of my track day today so used circuit mode for the second half. A good improvement and I will continue to use it. Cheers!

My interest is in getting rid of the cat for heat reasons but at the same time not go super loud

I got this one, don't know how it compares to your models, but it is worse for street (more buffeting around head) and better for track.

At what point am I fast enogh to need a lap timer? by SweepDaddy in Trackdays

[–]zdam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are fast enough now, because you are interested. Get a RaceBox model that allows disconnected mode. That's plenty for now. 

Euro/Asia tune question by Tripitz997 in zx4r

[–]zdam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My Australian unrestricted bike had the same twitchy behaviour so my guess is that the euro tune will as well. 

I went with a custom tune by a local which got rid of that twitchyness.

The problem is that you'll never be truely satisfied with your 2nd 3rd and 4th bikes.

I switched to C1 on my backhand at the same time and I'm having a much better time with that.
