    I can't believe this was the first time he rode the H2R.... it's insane enough to ride the TT course at speed, but to do it on a Bike you've never rode before - very impressive.

      @fahmiperwira 6 лет назад +63

      i bet he's not really trying though. going fast as fast as he could while maintaining the bike in one piece, unscratched and unscathed.
      but on the real side, H2R needs to be on isle of man TT though.

      He wasn’t even going for it properly. Kawasaki told him to be careful. It’s so fast but I don’t think it was a fast lap overall because of this

      L. Gyger it’s weird tho, if you’ve gone insanely fast on curvy roads & areas you can’t see far ahead, ones you hit that open country, you actually do feel relief & relaxed, even when doing speeds around 200, the more ya do it the more comfortable ya get.

    Interesting how often the people doing the most extreme things are also the calmest. Not a trace of big ego in any of them. Have been to the races 3 times and have met a couple of the riders including Hillier. He was standing in front of the Kawasaki tent talking about his tires to people passing by.
    Quiet, thoughtful, almost shy and then turns into a death defying gladiator with insane skills two hours later.

The only change I made was adding steel spacers inside the forks as my version of spring preloaded adjustment and I think I went to a heavier fork oil. Bumped up the rear suspension too. End result it handled more than adequately solo and two up. In fact I ended up reboring with a Yoshimura Stage 2 kit to 1100cc. Quite noticable performance increase and handling was still not an issue even flat out in top. The H2s were worse handlers than the Z imo.
