Assen TT Showdown: Hypermotard vs Panigale - Track Day Battle

[@VR6Dubman]

Very smooth riding! Smooth and consistent wins the days in the end!

[@hypermotardking]

Surprised I never saw you passing me on the Blade..

[@Juuul89]

What a blast! I'm surprised they let you on the track with that exhaust, sounds gnarly :D

[@hypermotardking]

Thanks.. i was running my decat system but stock end cans which blows 101db - so visually my bike looked stock which they were happy with and didnt trip any meters

[@mainlou]

Hi, what camera are you using?

[@hypermotardking]

GoPro 11 with media mod for front.. GoPro 8 for rear..

[@ChasingTenths]

you kept him honest with your smoothness , bike sounds great mate , you got the foam on top of the camera?

[@hypermotardking]

This is the audio from the rear gopro.. The front one is pointless and even my helmet mic picked up too much wind noise

[@gaz-gemw5801]

Bloody awesome, still my favourite bike.😊😊😊😊👍🏻

[@hypermotardking]

Thanks.. 🤛🏼🤛🏼

[@robsong1968]

After riding the bike a while since you had it Dyno tuned . Do you think it was worth it ?

[@hypermotardking]

100%… I had it tuned straight away - didnt care about warranty, I just wanted a properly running bike and it makes a massive difference. Euro5 kills these bikes and makes them horrible

[@JanBerges]

👍

[@hypermotardking]

thanks

[@ballerblocks]

Tour front suspension is either too soft, bcos every direction change you make there seems to be a rebound wobble. I am sure it felt very fast and terrifying and fun.😊

[@hypermotardking]

@@ballerblocks The suspension is setup a little softer because in the UK the tracks all have elevation and gradients - Assen is flat and i didnt really feel the wobble so much thru the bars to stiffen it up

[@ballerblocks]

@@hypermotardking I live in the UK as well, I did a trackday on my bike, I rode with a softish suspension at first, but as I gradually gained confidence or stupidity,🤣, I found that the reduction in rebound and a stiffer front end gained more lap time, but I felt I enjoyed it less that way, maybe because I am more used to green lane fast riding, with the bad bumpy roads.

[@CunningStuntsGoFast]

haha nice one kal , you make ppl think im any good 😜 , you ride smoooth 👌

[@hypermotardking]

It was a fun challenge.. you heated those tyres up quick 👏👏

[@CunningStuntsGoFast]

@@hypermotardkinghaha they were not realy warm enough yet , had a little slide at 6:48 🧐

[@magnusandersen8898]

Nice riding, but why the f*ck is there saw dust on the track?? 3:52

[@hypermotardking]

Previous session was red flagged because a Ducati V4 dropped its engine and that was the oil line 😭😭

[@magnusandersen8898]

@@hypermotardking Oohh damn

[@davidspin5353]

I had a SFV4, mind bending power! Traded it for a HM/SP, much better.

[@hypermotardking]

Its defo more fun on a HM and give or take 5 seconds can keep up with them too 👍🏻👍🏻

[@gordonatkins9135]

Nice one Kal ….not many bikes on track

[@hypermotardking]

Yeah not as hectic as UK track days but they adjust the groups at lunch and end of day so similar paced riders are in same group..

[@MrBendayho]

Get him in the canyons!

[@hypermotardking]

Yeah be a different story then - but he does have some experience at the Nurburgring so not sure now 😭

[@MrBendayho]

Lots of long straights on the Nurburgring. I stick to the smaller twisty tracks!

[@oscarv.888]

Good Race 😎👍🏻

[@hypermotardking]

Thanks…
