I took my VFR800 to the Phillip Island Superbike World Championship race today. Bikes are allowed into the circuit and I rode around the perimeter track to change vantage points. The perimeter track is rough gravelled road with a lot of loose stones. I was amazed at how good the Scorpion Sync tyres were on the gravel; much better than my usual road tyres.
This is giving me a lot more confidence to tackle the Gibb River Road with the standard VFR. I have arranged for a brand new set to be fitted in Broome and the Syncs should make the dirt road much easier to handle.
