To be fair there may have been something on the track, he didnt really open the throttle much. Unless the bike has 400lbft at 3,000 rpm that is.  [rofl]

Tyre fitters always go on about letting the factory coating scrub off  when you ride out with a new set on - wonder if he had just had a tyre change ?

Looks like one of the factory endurance racing team bikes.................something very odd about that one, as he'd hardly opened the throttle !
