[@liamhodge6257]

You definitely won that track day lol Made the others look like they where off to the shops 😂

[@cantfindanamefree]

Nice riding. I’m surprised how slow some of the fast group riders are, not even following the race line.

[@teevarley]

Nice work mate. I'm sure lads on 1000's are scratching there heads when you come flying past lol! I think what shows in this video the most is how comfortable and confident you are with you bike. Great work mate keep it up 👍🏼

[@BlackFlag94]

Haha.. cheers mate! one thing I've learned is that guys on 1000s are a lot easier to pass than guys on 600s! I had great confidence in my bike on this day but have list it since due to upgrades I've put on the bike I can't get working right. hopefully 3 days in Spain next week will sort that out!

[@FlyingPhysicist]

I'm using this as a reference for my next track day!

[@arjunp1835]

Wow you are an awesome rider!

[@martinevans6289]

Great video! I did my first ever track day (aged 51!!) with Ron Haslam School at Donnington last week and have kinda got the bug!! Great lines, like I was aiming for ... but mostly missing!! LOL To be fair, I had a great instructor on the day (James East) and he brought me on loads over the sessions. I ended up getting the second highest score on the day ..... and have since been looking for a 600cc track bike! Like I said, I've now got the bug and your video is great revision/study material for me :-) Thanks for sharing it.

[@BlackFlag94]

Great to have someone else loving the sport... I hope you have ample disposable income because you'll need it 😂

[@MrLeeson660]

sick riding man real fast and smooth

[@MrLeeson660]

lovely smooth fast riding spot on 👍👍👍

[@BlackFlag94]

MrLeeson660 thanks mate.. one of my most memorable days in my Trackday history!

[@AMTM1980]

Great watch, I love Donington I was at a track day the day before this actually, can't wait to get back there!

[@BlackFlag94]

I can't wait till I do it again!

[@tripsta6930]

Very nice riding mate...great pace

[@georgeangus2645]

Very nice laps. I have the No Limits 1000km race there end of July. Never even ridden the track before. Only get a 20 min warmup/qually pooper is going!

[@BlackFlag94]

George Angus you'll love it. it's an amazing circuit. If I had a bike with decent Suspension I'd get a race license - jealous of you haha

[@alexduey7868]

Wow awesome riding makes me really want a zx6r and $ for the track days

[@leejenkins2531]

Good job bud, i got same bike bike and can only do 1.51 in intermediate group, you are fucking fast fair play!!

[@motosurge]

Fantastic ride mate, blitzing them like they were standing still.

[@simonwoodings4349]

Great laps there bud!

[@tomp7475]

Nice vid and beautiful ride mate! ;) Not many (none? :) ) other riders could keep up with you. :D I'm planning my first ride at Donnington soon.

[@BlackFlag94]

I didn't get passed all day 👍 great circuit... you will love it!!!

[@sutt5828]

So fast 🤙🏻

[@pauliacono6580]

Grreat vid thanks mate! I'm going to a track day there this summer, this track looks awesome from bike view and the vid is REALLY helpful.

[@NAME-ff4mh]

Running TC? Rapido

[@lucasbillington2604]

Call the cops this much fun should be illegal 😜 wish I was half as consistent as you awesome

[@zxrob9192]

Nice, just goes to show what a good rider can do on a 600

[@bungfupanda8936]

A 600 is about all you need on a track day to be honest, as this video proves without a doubt, humbled some tasty litrebikes with ease, replayed at almost every trackday I've ever been to! 👍

[@PincherMC]

Nice riding

[@welshboyonabike]

going at a good lick, what bike ?

[@BlackFlag94]

John Frost thanks mate. 2009 ZX6R 👍 mostly standard, just some minor brake upgrades

[@MrJimmyT]

What tyres where you on pal?.

[@BlackFlag94]

This would have been SC1 front SC2 rear with a 180/60 Supercorsa V2. Cheapie scrubs from eBay.

[@hasanvic4853]

Bloody awesome this one is

[@Damaff23]

Nice laps

[@crc0889]

Nice one mate, looks fast, sounds good too. You can see the shadow of your gopro in some shots, do you have a picture of how you've mounted it? Is it on the wing mirror bolt?

[@crc0889]

Actually, what exhaust do you have on there and do you have any idea what db is tested at? I've got a day at brands in a couple of weeks and think mine is too loud.

[@BlackFlag94]

thanks mate, it's mounted on the bottom of the windscreen. it's a Leo vince slip on with the secondary silencer box - 95-97dB. there's going to be some footage from my recent catalunya trip soon

[@forced-induction]

That bike looked dialled nice, especially if your running 1.41s

[@BlackFlag94]

You'd be surprised 😅 bone stock nearly 30k miles old suspension with broken adjusters. It had one setting and I had to ride around the bike

[@alexapplewhite9814]

you r a crazy sod!! what tyres were you on??

[@BlackFlag94]

Supercorsa SC1 front and rear. Theyre good although I prefer the SC2 rear so I can slide it a little more - these cover up rider mistakes a bit too much. thanks though bud!

[@JamieW5024]

How were Focused Events? Only done No Limits and MSVT and have a FE one coming up. I know this vid is from 2015, but still :D

[@BlackFlag94]

In all honesty they were fine. I booked this because it was cheap and I'd book another cheap one with them again 👍

[@motopilot74]

You sir can ride! 👍🏻

[@BlackFlag94]

Thank you 👍

[@Carlos.Radders]

Wow.. that was quick. 😉🏁🏁👌

[@bonesO9]

Your an awesome rider! How are you so fast? Just experience? Do you have any tips on getting faster? Thanks. Keep the vids coming :)

[@BlackFlag94]

+Taylor Makes Gainz Thanks mate. I got a lot faster after riding with a couple of buddies on GSXR1000s - trying to keep up with them while riding a 600 teaches you to brake late and accelerate sooner. I'm not particularly experienced, this was my 3rd ever trackday. My tips would be: Brake later, accelerate harder and sooner, and you should hardly ever not be using either the throttle or the brakes. As for the corners, turn in later and faster. That's basically it to be honest. Make sure you take time to learn the correct lines too - this is something I need to do more

[@trvnks]

HI mate, nice video. Have you tried Cadwell Park? Which track do you think is better for a 1000cc?? (It would be my first time on track)

[@BlackFlag94]

Not done Cadwell.. it's on the list though. To be honest, I dont think there are many circuits a 1000 isnt quicker than a 600 but obviously the faster the circuit the more suited it is to a 1000. Silverstone, snetterton, Bedford and probably Doningtonhave a larger difference between a 600 and 1000

[@csthundercat]

very nice ride.

[@Nymsudo77]

What tyre pressures you running mate? Thanks

[@BlackFlag94]

Whatever was recommended. I think 32F and 26R hot pressures off the track.

[@eskimodoodle]

Good riding 👍

[@OneBoysDreamFilm]

Strong lap bro

[@jamietaplin3538]

What gearing you running? You kicked arse

[@BlackFlag94]

jamie taplin thanks mate.. I was running 0/+3 But could have done with a -1 on the front I think

[@jamietaplin3538]

I'm at donington 27th and gone down 1 on front not sure what to go on rear. 44 or 45 cbr600rr5

[@BlackFlag94]

That would be okay although 1 down on the rear isn't going to make a huge difference so I'd say you're safe to experiment. You won't run out of top speed at Donington so don't worry about that

[@yz2504eva]

what tyres?

[@BlackFlag94]

Supercorsa V2 SC1 front and rear

[@yz2504eva]

@@BlackFlag94 Thanks mate

[@ChumiStu]

I thought a 1.50 would get me in the fast group so I can progress. Maybe I'll try harder...

[@biketwat825]

Tidy!

[@biar1eloki]

Show 😍🏍️🙋🏼‍♀️✊👊

[@davt8615]

Music mate in 2 stroke haha

[@jamietaplin3538]

Standard is 16 42 I'm 15 44 or 45

[@BlackFlag94]

jamie taplin I don't have experience with that bike to know but I don't imagine either with be much different to be honest.. not for a Trackday anyway

[@Wmffra3]

Very nice bud....
