Re: 2D GPS Laptrigger
Hi Ry, Yes fantastic bit of kit, to be honest the 2015 bike itself is an excellent package as a whole, i did two days at anglesey last week first time out on a 15 T front sprocket, red plug in for slick mode and also using the 2D lap timer, i struggled keeping the front down so dropped back to race mode so to let the electronics help me enjoy my day, wasn't chasing times although was told they were respectable, was also told my 61deg lean was way too much so need to get off the bike more, i dropped down to inters last few sessions of second day focusing on hanging off bike more, after reading your posts just left cotswold mottorad ?1358 worse off with the hp akrapovic, rear sets, blanking plates being delivered friday, ill have them fitted this weekend ready for bike drop off next sat, first overseas track day almeria end of month.
Thanks for pic's and advice.
PS the dunlop gp 212's are an excellent tyre choice for the bm.

Just got back from Almeria with the 15 S. My god a great piece of kit it is. Had a massive slide out of turn two losing the front big time. Nearly binned it I did. Will post up video of it soon, oh and managed 59% of lean on previous laps. Supercorsa sp's are a road biased tyre lol and crap for a very very hot track. Lesson learned....

Re: Metzeler Racetec RR
Nice one mate. Don't do what I did and ride off the edge of the tyre. Slicks if you are going over 55% especially somewhere hot like Spain. I went 59% on Supercorsa's and nearly paid the price big time....The first of several sets of new tyres has arrived today...

Metzeler Racetec RR
I'm quite looking forward to trying the new Metzeler Racetec RRs. These are the K3 (Hard) compound variant, so are the equivalent of the Pirelli Supercorsa SP. I have some far more track focused tyres arriving in the next few weeks which I will hopefully get to use before the end of the season.

Re: 2D GPS Laptrigger
I really like the idea of utilising the dash laptime, I'd go for it if was a bit cheaper! have to make do with the starlane gps for now!

Trackday
Almeria is a good track and always very reasonably priced. For a first time European trackday it's a very good choice as the weather is always perfect; but for a bit more money there are better circuits to visit which are just as easy to get to.

Re: Trackday
Fantastic, exactly as iv been told previously also starting with the best circuits would only make the next a backward step, I'm looking at booking the tyco one at portimao in November for my second, I'm a novice rider so could do with some tips off the pro's !
ry did you ride your bike before you fitted the 2D fork sensor, if so what differences have you noticed ?
