So happy to see you get your "groove" back....can see the renewed enthusiasm in you!
Thank you so much
I truly feel better in myself
Trust me, it’s sinking feeling when you can’t get some old mental gremlins out of the head
It’s taken 2 European Trackdays and a massive pep talk by a coach to get me back on track
And I am really really grateful and extremely content
Awesome video once again. I love the cinematic parts. They are outstanding.
Take care my friend !!!!
Thank you very much Alberto as always 🤗
great vid Abhi. Makes me want to go to this circuit. Did Almeria last year and loved the whole Spanish trackday vibes
Wow, epic mate, I did almeria in 2018
My first trackday in Europe
First time using warmers too
I would love to do that again as it’s been 6 years now
You will love this Andalucia track mate
It’s bland in terms of features outside the track but the track has loads of character, undulating tarmac and some bumps but it all adds to the fun
And it’s very very reasonable too
The production and presentation quality is top notch. As an amateur track rider in the US I love following along with the series you’ve put out. Looking forward to more in the future!
Thank you very much , greetings from U.K. .. I have family in America so I absolutely love it when people follow me from there
Huge respect to you
Thanks for following and appreciating
The videography is amazing 👏 👏👏
Thank you very very much mate
I absolutely love this track. It's got a bit of everything. I've been twice with no limits.
It’s really really fun track mate, I hated it on day 1 morning but then fell in love
It’s epic
And great value for money
Fantastic vid mate 👌
Its great to finally see how you passed in that chicane type corner into the back straight as I was like wtf when you done it 😂
I knew turn 3 was a weak spot for me but you've realllly highlighted it for me and fair play mate you are fantastic on the brakes 💪
Honestly mate, I absolutely loved our little ding ding mate
So much respect for you
You disappear and then I have to pull you in lol
It was just brilliant
This is what makes a trackday glorious
These little friendly battles
Look forward to sharing the tarmac with you again mate
@@ChasingTenths cheers mate and yeah that's what it's all about and when everything clicks there's no better feeling 👌
Lovely video as always😊
Thank you very much for the support guys, you lot rock !
Another great video, I had some one come to me and say I need to back off the front at Almeria just like you 😂. I had a peg dig in shortly after and send me right out to the curbs but I got lucky.
Talking tyres I was running KR106/108 and they were super impressive and the wear was great. More grip than the VO2s even. I also used the 195 rear as my 2009 blade isn't that powerful and they dropped me down to a 1.49 flat. Made the bike turn like a 600.
Keep those vids coming this year 💪
Yes , I definitely felt my toe dig in to the tarmac and felt the rear go light on me and weight transferred to the front and I was already leaning too much and the tyre couldn’t cope .. lesson learnt for sure …
Those Dunlops are super impressive
I just try them next time
It really saves you changing tyres if they last 3 to 4 days plus they take multiple heat cycles
You doing 1:49 with 2009 blade at almeria is epic mate
Thanks for watching and appreciation
Means a lot mate
well done champ! it happens to all of us! great video!
Thank you very much for understanding and being so nice about it
I was gutted but the urgency and mistake was all mine
Thank you for watching
Good video Abhi. Hard luck on crash. At least you were okay.
Thank you for the kind words
Yes, I always think sometimes , I was pretty lucky not to have even a scratch from my offs
Great vid Abhi. The videography is so good. Do you do the drone footage etc yourself? Looks amazing. You should watch part 1 again. Your riding improves so much from day 1 to the last day!👍🏼
Yes mate, really well said , I don’t watch day 1 as I can’t watch me struggle around lol , but it’s important to take small steps and then it’s so rewarding to finally get some half decent lap times after so long …
In terms of drone
I always try to do my own drone footage if they allow me
I am not insured
No public liability
So I can’t film everywhere so sometimes I buy footage from Adobe shutter stock
Great video boss.
Thanks Kevin
Much appreciated
Trying to portray things in a more interesting way on a trackday than just bland onboard only footage
Love the content!!! Watching from the USA!!!!!
Thanks Terrance mate, where abouts in USA ?
I have my parents and brother living in Sacramento California
Congratulations on your crash. That is the way you handle such a situation. Calm, cool and collected. Stoic.
Hahaha thank you , that’s the first time I’ve had a congratulations after a crash 🙈…
Much appreciated
Another cracking video Abhi, quality as always mate 👍🏻👍🏻 good to see you and the bike both in one piece......2024 year of the coach, I like it 🤔🙂🏍️👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you mate, definitely more coaching for me
Really need the calmness of a monk in me lol
Great video. Progress was great over the few days. Glad your bike was not that badly damaged.
Great riding
Thanks Baz, much appreciated.. I always look pass the crashes and look into the progress made
@ChasingTenths I just had a very similar off at Druids. Front just trucked on me. No brakes. Not changing gear
Wish I lived nearer the tracks, and I would get much more instruction, like you. I live in Cornwall. Day away from a decent track.
@@Baz1000r wow, Cornwall is mikes away
I totally understand
These low sides unfortunately are so common and easily done
Could be off camber tarmac or just too must speed or lean like me , I feel for you though Baz, every trackday must be a right mission for you
Abhi...first session of the video was amazing; very clean lines,intelligent riding in terms of how and where you choose to overtakes your friend on the gixxer ,and the '''early'''' roll ons of the throttle exiting the corners were perfect. We all have our personal '''kryptonite '''' corner which we misunderstand on any tracks,yours here seems to be corner 2-3 LOL!!! No limits track days looks like all class,wondering what is the in and out total expense for such trip.As for the crash,look....i perfectly know that this corner ..i would hate it .simply hate it because this kink,you brake hard while transfering the weight rear to front while turning,aand if your suspension isn't settled up very well,the weight transfer happens kinda too late ,while you're into a turn in which is bad for grip LOL...and yeah,your front was probably well shot when it happened LOL.lets say that you're extracting the last drop of grip of your tires .
Very well summarised there Sylvan, that first corner had a big jump so as you are entering first corner the bike is already unsettled a bit and Offcourse not having fresh tires and just pushing too too hard doesn’t help the situation… corner 2 to 3 I was very quick but then 3 to 4 could have been better
No limits were amazing
Absolutely brilliant track event
All in all I was very happy with progress
Just need to work ok little things and mindset and everything else will follow
Love the video bro.. not gonna lie everytime I see the what r u doing crash vid it bring back memories 😂. Great vid again tho.
😂😂😂😂.. I know exactly what you mean mate , good times though
I can’t wait to do this sort of stuff again
Without crashing though lol
doing these euro’s hitting lap after lap and learning limits again looks to have worked 👍🏻👍🏻
Yes mate, absolutely love it
4 days relentless riding .. I was smashing it until I got smashed lol
Hi Abhi great Visio again good too you got your mojo back a little greedy but that’s how we learn shout out to dean ellison really is a phenomenal coach I’ve done a couple of days with taught me a lot to be faster and safer keep up the good work pal
Thanks very very much mate, Definitely some lessons learnt for sure
I have never spent time with Dean but it would be amazing to do that
I really really need it
I need to take it a notch back and re work some of my stuff for sure
@@ChasingTenths ❤️
@@user-en8wc8rc6j good man Mark
@@ChasingTenths obviously I’m not on your level of performance but hopefully we’ll catch up on a track somewhere 👍🏻
You really made me laugh there mate. I regard you as a rather distinguished and kind gentleman, always carefully chosing his words. Hearing you go nuts (understandably, adrenalin and such) after that crash is quite a change from your normal temper, it made me laugh out loud! 😂
😂😂😂😂🙈👌.. I absolutely love this comment mate
This is exactly my family and friends said too lol
I do have a “Red mist” kind of character when the visor comes down … I try to maintain the affable character but there’s a fighter under me who is super self critical and self competitive..
Best comment
You know me too well
@@ChasingTenths very welcome mate. You planning on coming over to Assen this year?
@@evanr9945 I would love to
I really really would love to
I have some scores to settle with that track
I was quite a bit slow and awkward and all over the place in my last outing there
So I will find a trackday company who aren’t too strict on noise and where I don’t need to transport my own bike
And I’ll be there
I really really want to
@ChasingTenths yeah you should, it's such a great track. Difficult to find an organization that is not that strict on noise, as it is not the organisation that does the the measurements and black flagging you, it's the track. They have a few "loud" days a year and those are mainly allocated to motogp, superbikes and car meetings and races. Not our territory 😉
I will be there on May 6, 9, 27
June 16, 17
July 8
August 23
September 28
3 of those are endurance races
@@evanr9945 brilliant , thanks for letting me know the dates , I will have a look if we in the U.K. arr collaborating with any of the companies and I can then come over. I totally understand loud days are rare and few , or negligible… I can’t wait to be there
Your so good on the brakes abhi 👌
Thank you very much mate, brakes have always been my forté , they are my saviour from these Uber fast new generation superbikes , I have always enjoyed braking late
Touchwood never taken anyone out 🙏🏼
He was on it, just needs to use a bit more of the track and he'd be seconds quicker
Here we go again with Andalusia's tourist board drone operator of the year 2024 😂.
I can't see what the appeal of going here is at all. Its warm, dry and ... warm. Oh, fair enough.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Love that
Honestly we’ve had such a crap start to our spring season in U.K.
so re-living this Andalucia event brings so much joy lol
And yes , I am doing whatever I can for tourism in Andalucia lol
A great coach told me, when you're feeling like things are too easy, the crash is near..!
Well, that’s a great saying actually
Kudos to that coach
I usually find its the other way round! When things start getting messy, you make mistakes.. fastest laps are always the most relaxed
Just my personal experience
That was brilliant, didn’t seem like 46 minutes.
I thought you were using the Accossato EV2 pads as well? I could have sworn you mentioned them in a previous video. I run their ZXC pad. I prefer a more progressive front brake, instead of a light switch for a front brake.
Thank you very much mate, it’s always been the vesrah pads but I am moving to the EV2 pads ….
I like the light switch on as I am very aggressive on the brakes
So you are on the right pads matey
Thanks for appreciating
I did wonder if 46 mins was too long
@@ChasingTenths No mate, 46 minutes is too short 😂
@@flamintasty 😂😂😂😂👌
May you share which camera and mounts you use?
Absolutely mate , all the details are in this video. I get this question a lot and I have made a special video on it
th-cam.com/video/Kvu3d2f8pdE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=fwLTH5UiBD1K0mwO
Great content as usual man. I wish we could ride together one day. Maybe you should visit Sweden 😊
Thank you for the appreciation and kind words, I would absolutely love to visit Sweden one day , great country .. How many race tracks do you have there? and how many months in a year you can ride there?
@@ChasingTenths there's a surprising good amount of tracks and some I believe are actually really good! You could also meet again with your friend Mike 😆
I would absolutely love it, I am actually googling the tracks now in Sweden... I forgot which mike you are mentioning?@@GiacintoMarcellino
@@ChasingTenths Mike Wade, we are good friends and ride together. Season is very short May to September and that's it...
@@GiacintoMarcellino ooohhhh Mike !!!!
Lovely guy
He’s fantastic
Another soon-to-be EU Trackday newbie question: I see in your lunch time footage people have containers for their used oil, after doing a change mid-event. Do we have to take these containers ourselves?
Thanks for the interesting question, are you talking about the white containers?
@@ChasingTenths Yes, they're the ones. Many seem to have them.
@@RTEATHEREDGE they are petrol containers, the trackday company gives them to you , and once you have finished the trackday , you give them back .. you keep them for 3 to 4 days
Fill fuel from petrol station and bring them back to the track . Very easy
@@ChasingTenths Ah right, thank you. Can't wait to get out there very soon.
@@RTEATHEREDGE I hope you have a good one
Honestly , doing 3 to 4 days on the trot at a euro track really changes you as a rider for better
i noticed, that you're engine braking could be a fraction smoother, ( but thats my prefrence )
you can carry more speed en the bike would feel more lighter.
for the rest just stay on the steady groove abhi
I keep my engine braking on medium so that’s T mode on the bike (track mode) , the R mode has lease engine braking but I am so not used to it
I like a tiny bit more engine braking , I think it’s something I’ve had since day one and got so used to it
May be this year I will try the R mode with less engine breaking and see how I feel … great observations by the way,
Very very nice to see you notice such detail and , no one’s ever commented on engine braking
Fantastic
@@ChasingTenths if you study the time's when you shift back from ( each gear )
you rear wheel is pushing you and making you unstable. you have a wobble everytime you're figthing the bike.
set it the bike on r mode and you will feel that is more fluently with even using the front brake less aggressive
and give's you also better response , and will give you more speed on the straight
i will try to make a clip with my bike
@@cbr1928 this is very very very interesting
I actually do fight the bike a lot off throttle but I quiet enjoy that 🙈🙈, but it’s not a nice feeling when you are chasing time
This is great advice mate
I’ll Definitely be moving to the least engine braking mode R (Race) from now on, I’ll see how it goes and I’ll report back in one of my future trackday videos
Love the advice
Thank
You
@@ChasingTenths less fighting the bike will make you faster. smoother and les tired.
all the little feedback can help .
i' will be curious to find out what you will think of it after a day of riding
p.s can you make the hoodies lik 3 triple XL
they are on the small side after a year ..
What year RSV4 is this? is it modified? specially made for track? I have never seen this dash.
It’s a totally track and race motorbike with custom i2m dash and everything else , I’ll make a proper video soon on all the upgrades
@@ChasingTenths thankyou.
I just found your channel since i am looking at buying a 2023 rsv4 ( new) i am coming off a ninja 650 that i never took to the track. I want to get a 1000cc (or more) bike now and would want to track it as well as ride to work n back. I am getting it for 21000 CAD including taxes n fees. Do you think its a worthy 1st step up from a 2 cylinder 650cc bike for someone who does more casual riding and is looking to go to 4 cylinder super bikes?
@@Notsogeekgeek yes it’s absolutely amazing
You wouldn’t regret it at all
I have done two videos road and track on the RSV4 2023
It’s definitely worth the price you are paying
It’s an absolutely stunning machine in every way
Watch those two videos
You will get a much in depth understanding
@@ChasingTenths can you please share the title of those videos? I can't seem to find them and i have tried to search in every way i can.
😄💪💪💪💪✊✊✊✊✊
☺️☺️🤗🤗🤗
Id agree the latest superbikes are much more powerful than a 2015 rsv4, however the GSXR 1000R is virtually the same power, in fact its quoted as 2hp less than an rsv4 rf at 199 vs 201
That’s just the crank power mate
But the power on the back wheel is different
The two Suzukis in the video were 205 and 207 bhp respectively not on the crank but on the dyno
And I am 176 bhp maximum on the back wheel
You can see how quickly they accelerate from me
But I reel them in on braking
And that’s what I was trying to showcase
I really love my bike
The power is so so manageable and unless I do something stupidly silly. Which i did lol , it’s really hard to crash an Aprilia too , front grip is amazing
@@ChasingTenths ok thats fair enough. It may be the case with those particular bikes that they are much more powerful, but as standard the gsxr is the same as yours pretty much at the wheel, i know this as mine is 178. It is remarkable how much difference the line taken can alter the speed you can build up down a straight, and more so the initial jump on corner exit. Thats an area of riding i worked on myself whilst at Andalucia.
@@HB-wu8pz exactly spot on that , Suzuki ECU’s are in an open relationship lol , they work with a number of tuning softwares
You can tune the hell out of them
I really respect that bike
It’s a really tuneable bike
But love the Aprilia hands down
Any day
@@ChasingTenthsmy bike has been on a dyno twice, 1st time when it had lower mileage it made 184 at the back wheel and the 2nd time last year with 25,000 miles it was just shy of 180 at back wheel.
They are fantastic engines but the electronics are 💩
@@richbonesjones4729 this is very interesting to know
Thanks Rich for that
Matt’s Suzuki was 204 bhp I think and I presumed yours was around that figure too
Should cll this chasing excuses 😜 my electronics are 2017 and they dont work either 😂
😂😂😂 I wasn’t on about you vs me , I was on about my bike vs the latest crop of superbikes
We had some great time there mate
Bloody epic to now relive it
@ChasingTenths hah yeah but im on a 200hp bike, it was insinuated 😜 we'll just have to do another one and swap bikes
@@matthewwren1736 😂😂😂 ok mate , but you are quicker than me anyways
We don’t even need to swap lol
@ChasingTenths its fine ill put some cheaper fairings on mine, you cant complain about power then back out of a race its not gentlemanly
Looks like you lost the rear and not the front when you crashed
I definitely felt the rear go light on me as my toe really dug into the tarmac for a milli second and I felt the rear go light and then there was a slight weight transfer to the front and front was gone
Man crashing twice same corner in front of the garages must have hurt your pride ;/
Hahahaha
That is absolutely spot on
Everyone saw me lol
Twice !!!!
But it’s all ok
I took it in my stride
Kept my helmet on at all times
Inside I was too shy lol
Id still beat you with 150hp
😂😂😂😂😂 I am sure you can mate, I’ll put some ballast on your bike though 😝😝😝😝
Make sure you watch our last 3 laps at the end of the video , you were on song
