klrtovfr Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 This bike does very well on the track, I still have stock front forks so its not entirely a weapon yet for me but it is more than adequate for any track. It might not win any races that it could even qualify for but is a hell of a lot of fun to ride and listen to. Its also a great learning tool if I should move on to either a lighter bike or a 1000 knowing how to throw that extra weight around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baileyrock Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Very nice body position in the lower vid screen shot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klrtovfr Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Thank you, I think I need to get my head/chest down and forward more and keep my outside knee against the tank. Its hard to think about it when focusing on everything else. Most of the photos were from novice and the pace was pretty slow but there is no way I can push this bike hard without good body positioning.

Member Contributer sfdownhill Posted September 25, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted September 25, 2016 Gets one's blood pumping seeing all this track-fiendishness. As an alternative to blue masking tape [I've put plenty of blue tape over motorcycle lights/signals], check out TAP Plastics' polyethelyne tape for covering lights and turn signals. Applied carefully, it stretches around compound curves and cuts easily - just slide a sharp knife or razor blade gently along the seam between bodywork and lens. http://www.tapplastics.com/product/repair_products/adhesive_tapes/polyethylene_tape/407 I didn't know TAP made a clear version of the tape until I looked up this link - clear could be the hot ticket. My cousin/track day conspirator turned me on to it. I used the black TAP tape on my GSXR's lights and signals during my 'wilding year' of track days [Looked great with the black/gray bodywork]. I didn't take the bike out on the street for more than a year, so I never took the tape off. When I finally removed the tape, it came off steadily and left absolutely no residue.

I've been planning for years to get there for a track school. Life continues to get in the way. So get on with it already. Keith Code goes there, so you don't even need a track bike.

Pretty sure you're doing something right, my friend. The main benefit I would see in the school for you would be body positioning. Then again, that doesn't matter so much on the ST or your newly found desire to be responsible. The school has turned into a thinly veiled excuse to be "safer" going fast. At this point, I'm just feeding the speed monster. I am going to need a Grom for a constant reminder of personal responsibility on the street. The 500X at WOT is satisfying, but still too fast. The school usually posts the schedule for the next year around Thanksgiving or a little after. Earthshake was talking about going to the 2 day school this year. I will post up when the schedule is available. It is usually a week or two before TMAC. They have been going to Vegas for the past year or two over the winter time, which is really tempting.

Baileyrock, race day is done and Tumbles did good. 1st race he was in 1st from the start until the last lap when he go held up in lap traffic. He ended up with a 2nd. Not bad at all for his 1st race ever. 2nd race...... Well Tumbles made his 1st appearance in years. He is a little banged up but not broken, unlike the bike. Hope that doesn't bring back any flashbacks of your trackday for you lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
