Back in Sept of 2023 David Henderson came up from Georgia to race in Ohio with me. It’s been forever since we’ve raced against each other. He was on his Kawi 636 and I’m on my 1199. David was doing great times all weekend and I was off by 2 secs still trying to get use to the big v-twin motor. By Sunday I was only 1 sec off his pace. We entered into the Senior Superbike class together and he was able to beat me. Although I kept him in sight until I realized I had no drive going onto the back straight with improper gearing, so him and others would walk me out of the long right hand carousel. In hindsight I could of dropped it down a gear, but to be honest my bike felt so violent coming out of that corner, I was a high side waiting to happen. I decided to play it safe and fight another day! I’ll have my revenge soon David! 😜 Overall, he raced one hell of a race and it was so fun to be on track with him again, and this time on big/fast bikes! Sorry David, don’t have any pics of you on track but if I find some I’ll post it up here.
