Great Pics!

One question though, looks like your headlight was on, so how long did it take to peel the tape off of it? DAMHIK

I think I was the only Beemer there, and riding in the B group, got a few 'looks' as we pulled out for the first session.

It's not a horsepower track, so I had to work quite hard to get past smaller bikes. But the KR is such an impressive bike. I turned the ESA to sport with 2 riders, which makes the bike really stiff.




On my KR I find that 2 up setting and Sport makes the bike turn in quicker and transition faster. It's the best for the twisty stuff IMO.

Nice pictures! I so badly want to track my KR but tossing it down the track or worse getting snagged up by some poser on the track "racing" doesn't feel too good to my wallet!

Outstanding! Normally, I'd say crappy backgrounds spoil the shot.
But that Sunoco shot rules (as does the one where you're holding
off the Tuono).

Who was the shooter? Them are some sharp and nicely exposed
shots.
