I can probably make that work and attend from maybe friday to wednesday and then see if they'll let me stay an extra day before I head to birmingham for my track weekend. Com one guys. all we need are 2-3 more. Anthony and Mark if we get a couple more I'll call the folks there and move my...

The Roads are more neutral, quite similar to the 020's in that respect but I found the roads to be MUCH more predictable and grippy than the 020's. The powers actually dive into corners VERY easily (the roads are pretty easy too) and both give excellent feel when leaned over. As for two up, no...

Both are dual compound, the power is aimed at more aggressive riding or track oriented work and the road is more touring focused. I road both last year and can not say enough good things about either for the FZ6! I wound up primarily using the Power as the year went on mostly because I was doing...

I have the Ridge from May 31st to June 7th right now. Not sure how many of my group here will be able to make it however.

i wish this were a week later. I am going to Barber Motorsports Park for a track weekend Aug 14-15 and would loved to have tied this all into one big fun trip. I actually planned a deals Gap trip and put down the 300 deposit on the ridge for a week in June when I had not seen an update on this...

Im in again for 2010. Year round United States Starting Mileage: 15043

Was a fun year! My new bike took about 1500 off of the FZ6 here at the end but all in all pretty happy with >11k. Have a great and safe 2010!!! Starting Mileage: 3,693 Ending Mileage:15,043 Total: 11,350

The FZ6 for commuting and the Triumph Daytona 675 for spirited weekend tides and the track! As for Mods, the Triumph has been getting them as it is new and the FZ was about as modded as I was going to take it unless I was going to dedicated track bike setup.

Thanks for the feedback Misti! Sorry for the confusion, the reference to "one Control" was more mental for me. While not specifically referring to Trail braking which as you noted is rarely advised outside of track/racing environment (and a skill I am just now starting to develop on track) I...

The prize was always an excuse to ride the FZ6 as much as possible! Sorry to hear about your dad Bryan. Hope to see you in Deals Gap again this year, My mileage will be in thursday evening. Gonna try to make end of the year push!!

Got a new Triumph Daytona 675 a couple of months ago primarily for more agressive rides with friends and the track. Track plastics will be the next addition to the 675.

2008, Purchased Oct 08. 15200 miles so far. Got a new Triumph 675 the miles are being split now but I love my FZ6!!

Throttle control is certainly the thing I tried (and continue to to try) to understand and get better at each time I ride, particularly at the track. It seems to me that good throttle control is having the knowledge to use the throttle appropriately in each circumstance you encounter. Each ride...

Thanks Pete, looking to make it to and elite day in 2010! Got a new Triumph 675 to go with my FZ6 and ready for another year. I made it to 8 with RideSmart and 1 with Lonestar in 09. I ahve heard good things about the Elite days. BTW, if you had not heard RideSmart is going to Barber motorsports...

I have found that I like the England based magazines. FastBikes, Super Bikes and Performance Bikes. More focused on sport bikes and I have little interest in cruisers so these tend to hit the things I'm looking for.

Mine have a tiny bit of side to side play, never been in an issue in 12k miles. +1 on the loctite for the little screws!

I managed to hit 3 of the TX tracks this year, would like to have hit TWS but never quite hit the timing right. Houston was blast and Cresson is great (both the 1.7mi and the 3.1mi). I'm looking to get up to Hallet in OK in 2010. Additionally RideSmart is going to Barber in AL for the weekend of...

Economical and straightforward solution to the FZ6's only significant weakness, worth every penny. more predictable, more comfortable, more stable!!

Sure, this engine lives for revs. Very common on high paced rides and track days to be running quite high revs in 2nd >9-10k. 5,6,7K around town is no problem and may even get you out of a tight spot or two. Biggest issue is your comfort however. Higher revs can be a bit daunting, ride in the...

Thanks for the pics, looks like a great day. I never get tired of the track!!
