teg

not been on here for a while but i was at this too , what a great day! everyone i spoke to agreed and much more enjoyable than doing these off track drills in a school day because there was more time . got a couple a more tips too . thanks to the crew as usual for making it an entertaining as well as fun day .

hi fella, Is that bike of yours finally finished yet? you're doing the cadwell gig in July aren't you? I'll see you there if you are mate. You can show ME around. Bullet

oww do matey ! be prepared and bored of more teg cadwell tales soon on the r6 5eb . glad your back mate .....

That overhead shot it amazing. thanks mate ..

My link cadwell pictures here,s that link again for cadwell track day pics hopefuly works this time .

i,ll try and add that link to the other pics again ....

heres some of me at cadwell last week on my 1999 r6 (unfortunately i crashed later , i,ll post some questions on that in coach / cornering questions later . i,ve tried to attach 1 after this as a demo but i,ve put a link here to view gallery if interested ,and any comments . i,ll try to add a single picture after but i apologise in advance if its too big !! it will take me all night to find how to reduce it .. cheers //picasaweb.google.com/mmaarrtteegg/TegR6Cadwell?authkey=Gv1sRgCNr6n5uUv4qXnQE

cheers bullet yeh i didn,t need you like i don,t need to keep goin back for level 4 repeats as i must know it al ehh !!!! - i wish it was that simple . clear and concise as always my friend . i bet when i think i,m checked at this point i,m rolling off slightly too b-4 i turn it .i thought i was finding it hard to keep rolling since the first right !!!

the revs rise as you get onto the smaller part of the tyre . - i should have been able to figure this out for myself - he must be doing a slight roll off b-4 the last right or the revs wouldn,t drop .

o.k what i,m seeing / hearing he rolls off and turns into the first right ,and is still rolled off as direction changes and flicks into left ,then picks up gas and starts roll on briefly - then i think it is checked (held constant) as he flicks into the last right then continues rolling on as soon as bike is turned over the crest (as it then starts to bend left at the hairpin approach) i,m guessing he doesn,t roll off before he flicks it into the last right (i,m ignoring the left kink b-4 the hairpin for now) although i can hear the revs drop slightly but i,m assuming thats as the bike turns . out of interest this is what i,m trying to do .

hello all ( bullet ) now then hall bends , i,ve just re watched the vids earlier posted by bullet . my question is this - from the first right at hall bends at cadwell to the last left before the hairpin i,ve tried to start this as one continous roll on -- rather than roll off a fraction before the direction change ( then little roll on to steady the bike )for the next left and then same again for the right . now this does feel smoother but of course it means tryin to turn into the left and right whilst steadily still trying to roll on the throttle ( because of the length of time involved for this section of track i may be checking the throttle for a period before continuing the roll on - but what i am trying to achieve is , after turning into the first right after the mountain 1 long continous smooth roll on until i leave the last left b-4 the hairpin ) watching the 2nd of the 2 bits of film footage i think this is what the gut on the quick gixxer looks to be doing . anyway your thought s on this appreciated .......... cheers .. p.s should i start another post hall bends instead ??

cheers bullet will do , gonna try and lift my pegs a bit i,ve had a look about and i think this would help me a bit too . i,ll post another point about hall bends next couple of days .

just an up date got out this week at cadwell again and was wet for a while so stuggled a bit but later on i did get 2 wheel lift off albeit only once and minimal but the throttle drive was much much smoother . i was also a fraction wider at the top of the mountain than my normal although not right over to left but i think it was the smooth application of the gas and the initial pause / check that was the major factor . problem was i only got it what felt like right once . i can see this timing is real important . which i was a quicker learner though ...... now about hall bends ..........

intersting stuff still think i can gain a bit of time here with a bit more attention to timing / throttle control at my level .
