It can take a little time to get back to the race bike push on the bars
to drop it into a bend after riding something sit up and beg. But I gues
you get used to it. The ST felt very strange after comming back from
France on the ZX10R. But now the ZX10R feels strange after using the ST
for a while. It's best to just use the track bike for a while before the
event. Get used to it. I wouldn't ever buy a newish bike for track use.
One off and it' swell knackered if you want to use it on the road. Get
an old Jap 600, put some fibreglass and crash bungs on it. You in even
fibreglass repair the thing between sessions if required.
