I love to see them fighting for the first place too. I like MM, however, if anyone should beat him, I like that person to be VR

Not only is endurance of the racers put to the test, but also that of the pit crews' It's very interesting race. I hope you'll enjoy this ...

Figure 8 huh... I am not sure if I can even spell 8.... :D Congrats!

My apology, I should have been more clear. I am doing track day on May 19. I am hoping I can meet fellow forum members :)

I'll be there May 19 in the "I" group. Anybody ... ?

I took mine to track not too long ago. Despite sport touring bike, it is very capable on the track. As big and heavy as it is, I was surprised at how flickable the bike was. I am not sure the purpose of your question. If you don't already own one and think of getting one and you can only have 1 bike, then don't hesitate to get it. It is one damn good machine! It is the one bike does it all. If you have the luxury of owning more than 1 bike, then you better get track oriented bike. I have 2 pics in my gallery, http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/index.php/gallery/album/6853-track-day-with-big12/ Forgot to mention: I signed up with the novice group on that trackday, but I did push the bike hard.

I thoroughly agree with the above comment. If I can extend a little bit more is this: For me, I like to follow 20% growth rule for track use. Street use: 10% growth should suffice, because you still need to account for road hazards. The lower the pressure, the easier tire gets damaged from road hazards. Beside I would not wanna ride on public street in a way that I need full track-capability of my tires. Here is what I mean by 10% growth rule: (hot pressure - cold pressure) / (cold pressure) = 0.10 or 10%

Ok, I have said this on the other thread, but maybe a little bit too extreme .... lol You can actually accomplish a lot in 6 days if you're willing to make a little sacrifice. No more Mexican foods. Eat nothing but salad (no dressing). Jog at least 2 miles and at least 2 days within that 6 days. Others have given good advice on the leather.

Congrats on the purchase!

I second dubflush here. If you're not trail braking, most people will slide the rear first before the front starts slipping.
