30 deg is lucky to be upright
6 mph cross wind is my current max on the busa , and i have a bigger tail to try , be more like 3 after that
in 2011 we had 2 750's at the start line a naked and a faired 14 mph side wind and no one was running , all waiting for the wind to drop,
after a couple of hours thought bugger it have to go back to the pits anyway may as well use the track , i went first and about the 1 3/4 mile and somewhere 180mph the wind was leaning me enough i just let it drift me off the course and rode back to the pits
Kim on the naked bike followed , 207mph , slight lean but said it felt good the whole way , qualified her for a record and hat
APS is a 2 edged sword
