Interesting comment that. Quite enjoy car track days but never had the b*lls to try it on a bike. But then I am a born again.


The only parts that get tired are your forearms and biceps, under braking.
When you are cornering on a bike, the main forces are going through the vertical axis of your body because you and the bike lean at approximately the same angle.
If you are want to try track riding, then IMHO use an accredited Race School and do NOT just go to a track day. The latter can be more dangerous than an actual race due to the varying levels of ability.
If you need some contacts then send me a PM
