I really haven't noticed a difference. The two roads where track techniques can be used, ones a sweeper road where little hard braking is needed and the other has you too scared to get a ticket or wreck because the surface isn't the greatest. Occassionally I'll haul through there and I'll need to get on the brakes harder, but I tend to just adapt to it and don't notice my braking habits affecting my lines or anything.

I never need to brake as hard as I do on the track on the street. You just don't leave yourself with any room for error in case you come up on a road hazard if your front end is almost bottomed out braking, you know? I'd say I ride around 80% on the streets during spirited rides.
