Bakaboy! Well we know who's going to have fun this off-season :) I know the piggy-back units (PC/Bazzaz) are very popular but there's a lot of good press out there on reprogramming the ECU. Also for the money one might question putting traction control on an older bike... you may not want to...

Go on in to Riders Choice, they'll fit you in a few different brands and have AStars as well. They serve beginner trackday riders and racers alike, so you'll get good advice there. The prices are also comparably the best around, even compared to US online retailers. Good luck!

Sorry... Is that a deer?

So, now that people have had their little rag, it's time to balance out this post with what actually happened. I attend most RC TDs but didn't make that one. I'm a control rider at RC events and have assisted on many occasions with registration and other jobs. So if anything happens, I'm...

Ah well, I don't think I've ever heard anyone say "yeah that's good, I think I'll stay at this speed" :) There's always a corner to work on, braking and turning markers to keep moving forward, and bike set-up to keep tweaking. No matter what your lap times, you'll probably always feel it's too...

Make sure it's not you just death gripping the bars on hard acceleration. That can often cause this too. The GSXR steering damper is not adjustable and is controlled "on the fly" by the ECU. This sounds very high tech, but I swear I've never found it to actually do anything. So the problem...

Bakaboy you nailed it. OP, whether you are making money on this gig or not, expecting to move in on another business unannounced is just plain poor business acumen. I've seen plenty of photographers at RC events, where motojournalists are testing bikes for feature articles in major...

I have a set of pins that I used for my 2002 GSXR that has now been sold. It is part # F0075AA-000; Fits: GSXR600, 1997-2005 GSXR750, 2000-2005 GSXR1000, 2001-2008 SV1000, all years TL1000, all years Hayabusa 1999-2013 Asking $50 pickup in Downtown Toronto. Can negotiate shipping...

Well, many people out there are just tired of unqualified opinions without any verifiable proof. Posting your oil analysis is probably the closest thing to objective evidence out there, although they can also be influenced by differences in usage, as well as sample contamination. As far as that...

So with all that insider information, I'd be interested to know how you came to your decision on what oil to use? Seriously though I agree with your statement, so why not challenge it. If the idea that 300V doesn't last long enough for an oil change interval on a streetbike, where's the proof...

......Ok, since I have to ask, how about an actual link, paper, quote, etc? Or are you deliberately trying to obfuscate the discussion?

Care to offer a source for this statement?

Yeah that was my point. Bet you can't refer to actual data for your decision though. Not saying I disagree. But the argument goes both ways.

Reviving an old thread here... thought it might be fun to blow the dust off of this topic again, lol. Seems to me that a lot of people are deciding on 7100 for their street supersport/superbike. Motul's own site suggest this oil meets OEM specs for full synthetic engine lubrication...

Never any races on the old track, so why start now? But, the place has the NICEST washrooms I've ever seen at a track! Bet they'll rethink that soon enough and we'll get portapotties, lol.

I have to say I'm a fan of the new track. Really steps it up technically compared to the old version. RC put on another great day with few interruptions. Thanks guys!

OP, I own a BMW F800S that is completely stock and I think it is a great all-rounder bike. But I'm not trying to sway you in either direction. Regardless of where you get any bike, you also have the option to take it wherever you want for service. As for cost of ownership, I chose mine...

No sorry, the space is actually no longer in use. But if I start up anything else again in the future I'll be sure to post it to the forum. Some storage facilities will be o.k. with wrenching, but may or may not allow you to fire up the bike. Depends on having an exterior door, proper...

A consideration for a 2 piece is that if the jacket and pants are sold separately, you're able to choose different sizes to make the fit much better. I've seen it with women as an alternative to a custom suit.

There is: http://f800riders.org/forum/forumdisplay.php/56-F800S-amp-F800ST-Discussion Actually a great reliable bike. BMW has agreed to recall them to cover the rear bearing problem caused by factory overtightening of the drive belt, so no money out of pocket if it hasn't already been done...
