Great day! Thanks to Ruskin for letting me take his 848 out, very nice! Bit sore from the bking landing on me, glad no one had a camera.
Photos (of people riding on the track, not of me dropping bikes in pit lane) will be up in due course, check out the web page for links etc

Let me know how it compared to your Agusta...also any secrets which would help me ride like you would help

Awesome day. First time at Taupo so I found it quite challenging for a start but had a blast. Even the additional 50m past the hairpin was fun

Quite different to the MV. It didn't overheat or leak when idling on the dummy grid. Was like a 675 to ride, handled very nicely. The pilot pures were good to a point... like the powers they don't really work after that point (too hot). I was shitting myself a bit, it's like a piece of jewelery, last thing i wanted to do was bin it!
The clutch action is super heavy. The brakes are awesome.

Come out on the back of the bking next time if you like. There are no secrets, its all about being smooth and progressive with all the inputs.
