Im probably not as fast as you, but I did not feel any lightness in the front end, and I was tapped out in 4th into the bowl. I was running 4th through the bowl and then switched to 5th later in the day. One comment that Graham made to me (becuase I was finding myself too far over the tank and crunched with the bars) was to keep a little more in the middle of the seat for the corners and then forward while accelerating out of them. Obviously you dont want to be back in the seat at any time, but just a bit of movement in the front half of it. Maybe you are a bit too far backwards over the seat after the corners allowing the front to be unweighted?
Did degsy ride yours at all on track. Im curious to hear how it ran compared to mine which he rode on tuesday. He was soo frickin fast on it I couldnt believe it could move like that. He was passing in Blue group and draggin pegs in every corner. He actually thought he ran faster than on his 600. There were some sick owens photos, but now they are not up.
