Neat! I think I’ve also seen fold up trailers that come with chocks. Im a little worried about theft by leaving it in the apartment garage tho. We had a few break ins a few months ago.

I bought the bike in June and did 4 track days in September alone. I got into motorcycling because the ongoing costs are lower comparing to getting tires and brakes for a bloated car that has sound deafening and AC. The cost of renting the truck would probably defeat it. I’ll looking into the...

Yeah I think I went to a few track days with them. They are cools guys and they made my days much easier by lending me their chairs and letting me sit under their canopies. Most of them are towing with the single bike trailer from U-haul tho.

I currently drive an Audi RS3. I can't find a hitch for it. There are hitches available for the A3 but not S3 or RS3. I wonder if the exhausts are in the way. I got the car back when I thought I'd never get a motorcycle and wanted something that I drive to both Sobeys and track days.

They do. Only that I live in Kitchener. I'd still need to get the bike to their shop the day before, which sounds like more trouble than riding to the track.

Hello folks, After riding to a few track days I'm thinking of alternatives. I live in an apartment with only one parking space so options are limited. I think of 2: Replace my current daily driver with a pickup truck and load the bike onto the bed each time I go to a track day. This means no...

I read a bunch of review and comparisons as I wanted something Italian. The general census seems to be that it's a good bike, but Street Triple handlers better and is cheaper.

Update: Thanks for all the encouragement. I did the flush a while ago and already went to 2 track days (and a low side :() It was a bit nerve wrecking when I first put the fairing back together and found 3 fasteners left over, but in general it went well.

Wish you had the intro lessons later in the season as well. Anyhoo, I'm definitely going to sign up next year.

I'm planning to go to a few track days (I think there are 2-3 at Cayuga left.) this year. I just realized I could leave the bike in my office's heated garage over winter. I flushed it last night. It hasn't blown up yet. :D

I bought a Ninja 400 in June and has ridden 2800km. I'm now drooling over the larger bikes. I think I'm in a similar situation to you. My car accelerates faster than the bike. I went to FAST phase one and rode their R6 and ZX6-R. I wouldn't want to own a sport bike unless I do track days all...

I can't do this. I live in an apartment and don't have access to a garden hose.

I can't tell if you were serious or sarcastic due to my lack of knowledge.

Hello, TL;DR: Are there any track day organization that allows engine ice on track? I just did my phase 1 at FAST a while ago and am in love. I look forward to going to tracks more often but there is one major block for me: coolant. I live in an apartment and don't own a lot of tools. I am not...

it says prerequisite Phase 3 on their website for the 125
