S1000RR On Track
What a freaking hoot! Did not come close to coming close to what the bike would do. But after taking it on the track for 4 different days I can honestly say that it is a hoot to ride and the best bike I have ever ridden!

Agreed the bike is built for the track. Great picture!
I had to get the suspension redone since I am outside average rider weight. Bottoming and pogoing is scary stuff at high speed. Went with K-Tech front and rear.

I had Bilt-Rite adjust mine at Summit Point. Seems to be working very well for me. Might just be that I am not riding it hard enough!
Just spent 2 days at VIR. Had an awesome time on it there! |

Steve,
Thought you were pretty quick on the roads at HM V. On the track on your RR must have been wild. Nice picture. John |

Of all the tracks I've been to, my favorite place to stand is by that tree. Can't get closer anywhere! ![]() [/hijack] |

So Joe how did you do in the 1/4 mile?
Keep thinking about taking mine to the local drag way for a run or two.
