Nope, too far away. Plus I'll be racing at LRRS this weekend. Good luck on your first track day. Start slow, get acclimated to the track and then work on increasing your pace from there. Welcome to the addiction.

thanks!! yah i was going to the novice, but everyone was sayin id be bored and tellin me that my street abilities are average intermediate, so i figured id rather pay the 200 to not be bored, lol... but i do want to do a beginner class sometime b/c heard you learn a lot for street riding too.

are you sure they allow on site camping for track events? iv been told differently

or are you talking canopy tent rather than a camping tent...because that would be different

seriously gonna try to get signed up so I can ride with the crew and it always helps to run with someone on the same bike when you're a noob cus it shows you a lot about how much harder you can push it than your brain suggests

that would be sweet if you could!!!

yah i know what you mean!!! followin you that sunday ride was CRAZY... lol... you were inches away from draggin and you werent even leanin off the bike, lol... plus the first 1500 miles on this bike are mainly straight lines from the dude who owned it first, so im workin on ruffin up the edges, but since i bought it i have only had a few chances to do it!!

i just purchased the wheel chock i wanted to haul it and i just gotta throw the hitch on the accord and im good to get it down there!! all i need for the bike is some water wetter, frame sliders, i got swingarm sliders, i am going to buy bar end sliders and fork sliders!! Im takin it to Stupes to get it wire tied here soon!!

Are these the stock tires, or did the prior owner put something a little better suited for track & Street?
