"Straight-lining a set of open bends lets you brake with the bike upright, click down two gears to stay in the sweet spot, gently winding on the power."

"When winding on the power on the 2 straights the bike started weaving a bit. Was this caused by the worn rear tire, or was it the new suspension set up? I don't know. I'll try some acceleration tests after the tire has been replaced." http://www.zx11.info/zx12r/tests/diary.htm
"that you would expect-no airbox rush, no increased vibration, and even the exhaust note stays somewhat subdued. It's almost as if you were disconnected from the engine, with just a steady push of acceleration when you turn the throttle."
