WSBK: Joan Lascorz finally tests Kawasaki Superbike at Almeria

Right on schedule, Joan Lascorz finally got his long awaited debut test (a couple of demo laps in Qatar doesn’t count) on the 2011 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-10R at the Almeria race track in Spain, despite wind, cold temperatures and rain disrupting the three day test session.
The Spanish rider was seriously injured during the Supersport race at Silverstone, is almost back to full fitness according to his team, but he admits he’s just lacking some strength that he’ll get back as soon as possible which will make riding easier in taking the bike to the limit.

“I felt very good at this test but I must get a little more strength back to push the bike to his limits.
My first impression of the bike is very positive and it delivers power in a good way.
On the first day I made a few laps, on the second day a few more and on the last day I felt much happier, and did even more laps than before.
I had a much better feeling from the bike also.

For the moment I have to ride around my lack of strength but otherwise it all went OK.
I have a few weeks to go before the Sepang test so I am working on improving my condition to let me go faster on the bike.
For sure I will be ready for the first race.
