    I remember when angles of 45 were considered crazy, anything more, and you were off... tyres have come along a bit haven't they?

    No single component of any vehicle has been more thoroughly and expansively engineered, than tyres.

    Despite the moaning all season of how much faster the Honda was out of corners, it certainly didn't look that way in that clip. Yes I know the track is very short and not ideally suited to the Hondas...but still...

    Not just the max lean angle, but when the speed graphic pops up, look how much lean angle he still has when he hits full throttle on the corner exit

    Full throttle at his hand, bet the ECU isn't releasing anywhere near 200 hp to the back wheel.

    That telemetry is bullshit on a bike with traction control, and anti wheelie control!

    The guy is still a legend, I'm just saying you are being misled.
