While reticent to make predictions on results for the new project, he feels he comes into♋ the Australian WSBK weekend at 𝐆a good level with the bike despite the team not “focusing too much on outright performance” in the winter.
“The KB998🍸 is a fantastic bike, I’ve enjoyed riding it in the winter,” he told WorldSBK.com.
“Honestly, we didn’t have fantastic weather over in Europeღ for the pre-season testing.
“I didn’t do many laps, but the Monday and Tuesday 🍸test at Phillip Island has gone well, it’s been enjoyable to ride.
“There’s some parts of the bike that are really strong, some parts of the bike that we’re still trying to figure out which is completely normal for such a new motorb💧ike. It’s gone good so far.”
He added: “My pre-season has been very interesting for me 🎉t🌱o start this new project with Bimota.
“It’s about expectations💦: we have a new bike, we’re trying to compete against teams and bikes and riders that know their package very well.
“So, I think it’s been a really solid winter, I’ve been working hard 𝄹on the feeling with the bike, working hard to understand how to take the maximum benefit from the new characteristi𝕴cs of the bike.
“Aღnd I would say it’s been really good. We haven’t been focusing too much on outright performance, but still in the test we’ve been in the mix.
“I think this is a re𝕴ally good start♌ing point for the bike.”
