    How are the esses on a bike? Is the difference in speed through them between different levels of riders incredibly high?
    Get that weak shit off my track

    I don't understand what you are asking.

    I know that turns 3 through 9 can gain/lose a lot of time in cars, and I imagine that in a bike the difference is insane, based on my very limited knowledge.

    I don't think they were doing laps at speed. probably just a parade type lap or two.

    I would say yes, more so than in a car, assuming you're talking about a bunch of amateurs, and not MotoGP level riders.

    Because a good rider on a sorted 250 can destroy an average rider on the latest whizz-bang 1000cc sportsbike.

    I have a friend who started on a Buell Blast. I don't think he ever had any issues with it.

    I assume the typical orphan brand issues like parts availability would now apply, however.
