Rear grip problems at the Austrian MotoGP convinced Jack Miller that he should return to his usual style of bike set-up at KTM.
The Australian has been experimenting with ‘rotating’ more weight onto the rear of the RC16 in recent events, bringing him in line with the other riders.
“Short shifting, picking the bike up and managing it with the throttle. Doing what I can, but I was in the shit. The 28-year-old, who moved to KTM this season, explained: “We changed the bike quite a considerable amount in Assen, trying to go in the direction of all the other guys, a little bit away from my normal kind of setting, which is [more weight] on the front.
“So I think the biggest thing for us is taking a step back, going back to our old setting and maybe finding a little bit of a different direction to work for myself.“We're still trying to build and understand [things with the KTM] and this can happen.”“I know that bike. It's generally how I had my Ducati set up and it was just trying something out-of-the-box with this setting.
