'The biggest thing to my mind with our 650 twin will be throttle response. I want a bike that’s really light and really small, that can ride around the outside of everything on a track day and then clear off down the straights as well. We need something that operates really well on the edge of the tire and with a small throttle input, and we’ve worked so hard on our TT race bike to get that control that we’re looking forward to feeding this development back into the new 1200 V4 and 650 twin customer projects as well.”
If it is really light and handles well, why would you ride it around the outside in corners, rather than make it turn quicker and more upright, so you can get on the gas earlier ?
