Hehe, I do think Ms Peel is a one in a row wonder now that could change the way fast bikes are designed that can handle huge power and harsh hook up. Its not me me me its t Ms Peel Peel Peel. She's serious business to me, Trixie is just a cheap date compared. I could and have gone down long list of faults I've found in moderns and also pay close attention to the racer on new steeds in magazine reports and they agree with my own findings. Only real advancement that concerns me is the traction control programmed for each track turn, but that's only good for maxing out in phase two 'counter steering' handling and you can only go so fast and sharp around when the front is pointing and pulling the wrong way, duh. One outstanding feature of tri-linked Peel is how the effort to control her goes down not up the harsher I pressed her. Absolutely flabbergastingly fabulous! If anyone thinks I'm making it up oh well but I can't get the sensations out of my bone 24/7 and its been over half a decade since last on her.
Peel is a real Commando retaining the isolastics in an over lapping fork like chassis, but those lose ends are tied together for over lapping combined strength yet still allows deforming enough to take out the tire conflicts in far over hi powered leans each end traction and vector are in conflict. To ride Peel like she can take requires drag racer locked on crouch, all the pull is straight back and all side loads are in line with normal suspension action. I feel her twist up but never rebound but to central rest state on release , un-like the over rigid moderns which even with all their advancements build up random splashes that skip out front or rear not just on tip overs but harsh flip back ups. Shoot they will even lift both tires up at once suddenly when all seems fine, swoosh. Pilot and bike mass is almost all above the tire tops for goodness sakes. CoG is important as all get out when leaned to max and still want some force applied down into tires instead of off the surface. So as rocket ship as the elites have gotten, rockets w/o vectored thrust are straight liners only compared to what a triple linked C'do can do w/o breaking a pilot sweat.
Tire profile on rim makes a whole lot of difference too I've found out. I had to watch out if going too fast/far over on fat ass tires up to 170 size but had to watch out I wasn't going fast enough to break Peel loose in time. Scary to have too much traction for the power, so Peel gets more power to break out at will at higher speeds. One of her funnest ways mixed up phase 3 and 4 handling. Going in under enough accellerating power than any extra lean trips her down further to sling rear out a bit which re-grips with a extra zing in acceleration while also aiming sharper, so whole sweeper done in a series of tip overs to break traction and flip up to accelerate harder. No steering involved just tip and trip, tip and trip while on increasing power all the way. Moderns aren't near neutral enough to take that w/o over whelming pilot strength and speed.
Barber's track top speeds are only 150 mph and about 100 mph average of best bike and almost 120 for best car to date. Peel just needs not to loose much time in the straights to have a shot at besting that. Cars tend to beat bikes in turns both by braking better and by holding higher speeds, bikes tend to gain it back in the opens. So its the turns that matter most and are funnest too. Code preached fastest turns are the funnest ones.
The extra rub is if Peel can pull off under 10 sec and out power handle elites in turns is doing it with push rods and vintage power adders of WWII era. Peel will have Hot Shot device so can change posture from low to sprint and lifted to twist. Not the most powerful engine by far but may be most effective for Peels purposes. Time and time slips will tell not my bantering about it.
:wink:
