It is little by little that modifications are made and applied and Brad Binder made this clear when talking about the latest MotoGP tests in Barcelona, where part of his objective was to improve the bike’s exit in curves, as well as improve braking. when attacking precisely the curves. In addition, there was another new feature related to the seat.
The 29-year-old rider spoke about part of the tests and how his focus was on a riding detail, which he spoke about a few times during the season: ‘The important thing in these tests was to prepare to exit of the corner, go out and pick up the bike without the tires to be slipping, that was my objective, as well as getting time on the brakes recovering as quickly as possible. I felt good on the bike’.
And part of these sensations may also be related to a modification to the bike, not so focused on the performance itself but on the rider’s comfort, which can ultimately help him to be more «relaxed» and focused on improving in other aspects:
– We have a new seat unit. This was necessary to make the modified exhaust system possible. The designers also reshaped the rear to make it a little more comfortable for riders.
