Entry into C1, and also the fastest corner on the R15. Doing a speedo indicated 123kph at this point

Wow the bike looks grounded even at 123kmph, bet the rebound rate is ultra-progressive compared to others, and rear shock is adjustable right?

Things seem abnormal when you realize there's no traffic in this corner.

Things seem quite normal when you realize thats Killer on the track

Congratulations! Wondering whether I should've really done that, considering you make winning seem so easy

@EL LOCO - the R15 does not have a adjustable rear. Its a preset set-up. But damping is spot-on, I must say. Love the way the R15 corners.

hi guys, thats a massive race!!.. can they have a race like a proper race, where anyone could participate(stock bike, max mod a k&N) be it bajaj or HH ...that will be cool....

I think bajaj , suzuki , kawasaki should take an initiative and use this idea, for promoting the power segment bikes..and should push the govt. for proper race tracks...

can anybody plz tell me bout any race that is goin to happen for below 200 cc category in mmst?? i wanted to participate in a race there the track is just so beautifull..!

**kriss** · 10-23-2008, 01:15 PM

Now i need some experts answering this question...

Not sure how the Grid positions were given to the riders on Group B, for Group C it was on random basis. Some said its on first come first serve(WTF ??)...

Joel or Killer... What if, you were asked to start the race from 24th position ?? I know you will race... you can end up in a good position at the end. But everyone who gets on the track will have a mindset to win it.

Everything was great on the track except the grid positions given randomly.

**Joel** · 10-23-2008, 01:35 PM

All cant stay on the first grid man. One has to get behind the other. They cant have all the 25 people lined on one grid.
For the Group B race, the positions were based on the competition number.

Note - Please dont use BOLD font. Its very loud!

Based on the competition number ?? How did they give competition number ??

PS: My bold doesnt mean loud ... Chill. All my 1800+ posts before server crash were same and all 200+ now are the same.

What!!

, i thought it was adjustable!?! i can see that the bike is very stable when you flick it at 100+kmph

As of now in my opinion the only other company capable of keeping a track meet for their bikes are TVS, i wouldn't even think of putting my bike (Bajaj) into a corner at speeds exceeding 90+kmph here, it wiggled like hell when i tried it once

Each time I view your posts, I get a glare.
Like rossister said, if you have a heart please save our eye sights.

@EL LOCO - Try taking a corner at 100+ on any pulsar..Then an RTR and R15. You'll know what makes them the best handlers.
The p180 has no racing class for now.

**cosgeo99** · 10-23-2008, 04:32 PM

^^ I agree with tht the R15 jst begs for corners. RTR also handles them good.

The pulsar loves straight patches

**EL LOCO DIABLO** · 10-23-2008, 04:32 PM

^^You bet, i always had a throey in my head that a heavier bike will ground in a corner better due to it's mass, but both the R15 and the RTR crushed that theory to the bone, is it any coincidence that both have such a low centre of gravity (relative to others)?

**vinfreak** · 10-23-2008, 04:36 PM

Waaw..!!...looks like all u guys had a blast

..its funn to hit the track with a nice machine!!
