Great pictures! Thanks a lot!

Ya.... No....

I'll be going on the Saturday. Old red 99 R6. Hopefully will see more people there.

^^^ He's talking about seafoam. The can says to pour some in your crankcase to clean any sludge out. But usually you just end up with a bottom end knock due to lack of lubrication.

Generally Friday 6-10 is test and tune at Sparta. You'll get tons of passes in. FWIW I'd launch my car as soon as the yellow showed for a .2-.3 reaction time. Never drag raced my bike so can't comment on that. I wouldn't worry about reaction time when starting out, just focus on getting good...

Just make sure your oil level isn't too high. If it is, oil can "aerate" or "foam", resulting in oil temps increasing rapidly, low oil volume/pressure through the pump, lack of splash lubrication, etc. This would be pretty extreme but it's a possibility under the right conditions.

If you're planning on riding for long distance, but want a 600SS, get a CBR. I can cruise all day on my '07 no problem. 07+ R6's are murder on the wrists, you'll be stopping every hour. Disadvantage of the cbr is no cargo storage. Can't even fit a can of plexus with a towel... Spend your money...

Need pics before I bail her out. On a side note, don't mess around in Windsor, they have Camaros, unless they're V-6 then whatever.

Arguably, I felt they were going too fast for the type of highway they were on. By the time the R1 noticed the Mercedes, he was doing a solid 90mph. I think he slowed down to 30-40mph, but if he was doing a sensible speed, he may have avoided the car all together. The GSXR was obviously going...

Season will be here soon. Don't be like these guys, choose life... :cool: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=3Yj1JmYF1NY

Edit...... I'm a drunk idiot, don't listen to me.

Hey guys, Been contemplating getting into track riding lately. I know it's a rather expensive hobby, however I've always wanted to race bikes. With that being said, I'd rather not just jump into the deep end without getting some knowledge and experience first. So basically, in short, I was...

it kicked the **** outta Hyosung 250's lol..... It was just a bit dated :D But seriously if you can't get cheap insurance on a rocket of a 250 anymore, people might as well buy an old beater, beat on it, save up for a nice bike when they get the skill. Unless all one cares about is image....

This is crazy... When I was 16 I bought an 82 cb450sc. Insured it with TD Insurance for $76 per month. M2 and all. However this was back in 2006, maybe things have changed.

One of the better roads around Port Burwell is called Richmond Rd. just through the small town of Richmond, ON. It gets pretty technical if you keep a faster pace. If you guys are bored in the spring you should check it out.
