unless it's a v8 or some super charged sleeper, if you get a good launch, it shouldn't matter. only advice is keep those spirited accelerations to the strip. a night at the strip is cheaper than a speeding ticket.

how do you get the mirror out of the housing, that's my question lol. if you can do that, why not buy some used GSXR mirrors and cut out the rear and make them bigger full on signals. Legally speaking, they'd have to pass inspections (since they do on stock GSXRs) and my personal opinion is...

These pics are from my first trackday at Pocono Raceway on the North Course. I went with Team Promotion and took their ART Basic course. It's for people new to the track. These pics were taken probably first 3 or 4 session out of 6 or 7. I felt like I was faster in the last few sessions, but...

Re: what type/brand of oil do you use? Repsol Semi-Synthetic 10w40 i get a gal for around $18 :)

wait! before you put those in, don't forget to throw in some pod lights! hehe, it's a nice little touch. if you plan on doing this look up the sockets for the R1 pod lights and just drill a slightly smaller hole, they plug in quite nicely and seal pretty good.

this is actually a pretty old video. but nonetheless she was on tv talking about it. she was actually a pretty hot asian chick.

i'm not trying to drag a knee, but it happened... i want to be more comfortable incase it happens again. Last time I freaked a little and went off line. Every session after I felt like i was going wide because I wanted to keep my knee off the ground. I was excited that it touched down, but...

to those that drag knee regularly, how do you get used to the feeling of dragging a knee or hard parts? I had my first track day on Sunday at Poconos north. Somewhere after 5 sessions I was picking up the pace and then I felt my knee touch for a split second, I immediately straightened up...

wow that's almost exactly how I wanted to paint mine, 'cept DPMC Blue. Any tips on getting the lines nicely or more pictures zoomed out?

i really like the above one. that semi carbon fiber look on it, is hot. i want.

what are you looking for by changing the bars? Something further up and back? Or something with less pull back and down? People have used things like bar-back risers or switching to the FZ1 bar for a lower, forward riding position to CBX1100 clip ons (or Helibars as Defy Inertia has done) all...

weclome chopstick. I'm usually in JC, but not with the bike. I live down in Edison. MSF BRC is good way to get your license and you learn a lot of valuable lessons. Just make sure you practice them. The ERC class is usually, but if anything I'd recommend taking it after a full season and...

Well I figured I'd update here since there was activity. The Tech Specs are holding up OK. No peeling or anything, but I feel like one side is not as sticky as the other. I emailed Tech Spec, and they said they could send me out a new generic half sheet to replace this part... all I would...

I have: Alpinestars Stage Leather Jacket Alpinestars SMX Textile Jacket (for sale) Frank Thomas Mesh Jacket I wear the Alpinestars Stage jacket pretty much all the time, I occasionally pull out the FT mesh if it's a shorter ride, but even then that jacket doesn't see much sunlight. The A* SMX...

I'm 175-180lbs without gear on. I had my suspension adjusted (R6 forks on the front) at a well reputed shop in Washington, NJ. They walked me through what they were doing. My rear preload was set on 4 with 34mm of sag. After adjustment it was on 4 with 34mm of sag... whoo pretty much right...

O/T but were they really that bad? I've been eying the C/F ones, but I've been worried about noise. What was so bad about them? Annoying neighbors, getting attention from cops, just not your cup of tea?

Re: Sproket Modification? just try going -1 in the front. if you do a -1/+2 might as well go with the 520conv. like defy said -1 is only $20-30. -1/+2 with the stock chain (if it fits) will be $60... Try the -1, feel it out, and if you want more then go for the -1/+2, as for it fitting on...

that's my helmet hair fix, and temporary EZ Pass securing mount. However I kind of gave up on it as I was going down 6th Ave the other day and a few bumps and I thought I dropped my EZ Pass in TRAFFIC. Then I looked down and it was luckily caught somewhere in the upper fairing. Now I'll...

i like the bars much better for the slightly aggressive position they give me. I did it mostly for trying to ride harder. depending on your arm length and riding style this may be good of bad for you. If you've got long arms these might help alleviate a little pressure/weight on your wrists...
