you bila 4cyl?

front suspension stability is important on road bikes, it affects braking traction also
that's after the tyres, of course

when you ride, how much of the surrounding do you feel?
the wind? the sound? you said wind buffeting... so I'm guess because you're feeling too much

the more you feel, the faster you think you are - my opinion, is that you are overwhelmed by it
for me, wearing full gear + earplugs, I can go fast with less fear than when I'm without

and ironically, without noisy exhaust, I feel more comfortable going faster than with it

some pointers I can tell you:
- find a comfortable fast speed, say maybe 100? check your body: are your shoulders down? elbows loose? hand gripping the handlebars tightly? or just firmly but not doing a deathgrip
- is your bodyweight supported by the core? or shoulder? see the link below, scroll down to the part about green and red arrows : https://www.bennetts.co.uk/bikesocial/news-...ody-positioning
- or, just check by imagine you let go both your hands, are your upper body able to maintain the posture or not?
- kinda like T-rex, with the small arms dangling in front, just holding the handles but not supporting any weights
- adding to that, under hard braking, you want to maintain the green arrow, instead of the red arrow which will increase the possibility of crashing by losing the front
- google some "motogp hard braking" photos to know what I mean

riding a motorcycle requires practicing, and many of it is counter-intuitive to the survival instinct
I think you mean the newer model; I almost got the the 2005-06 ZX636 last time

I prefer the 13-16 with just the KIBS, but I think it doesn't have IMU
some bikes of this year have ABS, actually... just see the front brake hose going into the chassis, or the dash got extra ABS light



the newer gen has ABS for sure, better electronics with the IMU also iinm

yeah, either one, front or rear. then again, if mine, I'd consider to bypass it
I think without the extra hose length through ABS pump gives better brake feel

maybe until a certain phase maybe I'll leave those riding aids alone

I hear, those bikes with IMU, you can just maintain the throttle, lean in, and the bike will modulate the power itself - bike make the rider fast

you bila 4cyl?

C-ABS model, nice

interested to know, the 'fully loaded' specs? can share? or PM...
I'm a gear-head

congrats!!
I think this is wet dreams come true

bila ride? hahaha

Beautiful beautiful bike @shyan90. Congratulations on the new ride! May it provide you many many smiles for miles in they years to come.
