First off thank you, Paul, for your excellent response.
I'm not understanding what you mean about "not asking much of [my] bike".

Things I pay attention to are ride quality, how the chassis reacts when entering, apexing and exiting a given corner..regardless of throttle or brake inputs. The results I try to acheive have to be "seamless" in all aspects.

I also try to notice if whether or not my tires are staying planted...after all, that is the point of all this right? Keeping the tires on the ground?

Not to dis you, but until you realize exactly how far beyond your limits even a mid level expert club racer is taking their bike, you won't really understand.
No offense taken. I wouldn't write off my limits so early in the conversation though...


I guess my biggest fear about all this is dropping 100, 200, 300 bux on something that I can figure out on my own or worse, end up disliking.
