Speaking to WorldSBK.com, Rea said: “The guys need to check exactly what happened ꧂but I just came to a halt at Turn 1; we parked that bike for the day, so lost a little bit of time with what happened and then obviously, we only had one bike for the rest of the t༒est.

“We focussed on our workload again, confirming the bike and I’m not completely satisfied with the fee﷽ling oౠut there.

“I did a longer run to understand the tyre drop but I got faster and faster durꦫing♑ that, so there’s some positives.

“I think our outright speed, we need to improve a little bit. I wasn’t completely comfortable so we’re sti🍌ll working to find that optimum setup for that style; it’s our first time here at Portimao together and the bike was behaꦿving a little bit differently to what I was used to do.

“There’s work to d𒊎o for everybody but I am happy, confident and relieved that testing 💝has finished.”

Rea, who is still adapting to the R1 fol🍸lowing nine seasons with Kawasaki, was again busy testing various new parts for the Japanese manufacturer.

That included❀ suspension, chassis and what he described as ‘normal test items’.

While his feeling aboard the R1 wasn’t♋ the best꧟ on day two, the parts tested worked well, according to Rea

“We tested some suspension ideas, some chassis parts and normal test items,” 🅘said the Northern Irishman. “We experimented with geometry and setup, just running through the ideas we had ൲to improve our feeling.

“I haven’t done a full weekend at Portimao on the Yamaha so I was starting from a Jerez-ba൲sed setup and we ended up somewhere similar to that.

“We’re in the ballpark but I think we can fix that ri🌊ght now and continue working on that in Phillip Islan༒d.

“The items were positive, step-by-step we are trying to understand how the tyre behaves, an area we are trying to focus right n๊ow, to give me some traction as I pick up the bike.

“Some ideas and parts were better෴, some were the same and not too different. We’ll keep working with that and see what we can do in Australia.”
