To track a 10 year old purpose built race bike was not jiving with reality.
-Something broke or needed maintance after every outing
- Parts were scarce
-Parts were expensive
-Parts were non-exestint
-needed race gas
-Answers hard to come by for issues
-Only AS FAST as a well tuned,exhuast piped 1098 on high test pump gas.

I gotta admit though, there is something about the rawness of a race Desmoquatro Engine :notworthy

I thought I was going to be slowing down, taking less risk with a slower bike, but the opposite became true. I found myself trying to go faster in the corners to make up for the lack of HP. With a faster bike at a trackday when you find yourself behind someone slower you think, I'll just wait for the straightawey. Not so with slower one.
