Maybe its because i'm still new to the track and a slower rider but entering the bowl i'm dump it to 2nd and find myself having to shift as i'm exiting while leant over. Am i wrong to downshift to 2nd? Or is it indeed from crappy gearing from suzuki?
Sorry to jack your thread. |
i would say third minimum. i bet if you run in to the bowl in 3rd you'll be going through there faster/smoother than you ever have and by the end of the day you'll be testing 4th. dropping into second has got to be the equivelant of pulling the clutch, winding the throttle all the way up, slamming on the rear brake all while shaking the bike as violently as possible. then as an end result you get the upshift through t7. not fun. try third and just relax, it will be better
