    Front tire 'skips' since getting new rubber

    Tell that to the 5 guys I know that have crashed on new BT016 tires. Some do have the coating, some do not. Donald

    Convex / Spring / Wave Plate for Clutch?

    the convex plate is also known as a judder spring. The clutch will work normally without it but the bike will make quite a noise as the clutch enguages. I had a Harley barnett kit that had this missing - called them and they sent me the part. Donald

    Head scratcher?

    starting and running the bike regularly without it going over 3000 rpm would help flatten the battery. Each start is a good load, several starts would not be good for it Recharge and try again Donald

With no other plan I...

    That video gave me a chance to look at the time it took to get help to the scene. At 8:20 the crash occured. At 8:37 you can see the TMP truck going accross the field to help.

    It's important for those that have concerns to voice their problems that day to an organizer, not the next day on the internet as by then it's to late to fix it. You can only fix a problem that you are aware of. Power wheelies are not an issue - 5 foot high ones are and I did not see any.

    Light Weight sprocket effect chain life?

    A lightweight sprocket will wear faster which will in turn wear out the chain quicker. They are mating parts and the chain will become the same pitch as the sprockets. A lightweight sprocket can cause a chain to have half of it's life. Donald

    Managing amateur track day risk

    I just talked to Chris, and he not the best at wording things, nor is he wanting to deal with those that wish to make a bad situation worse. Realize that Calvin and Chris are both racers and very experienced track day riders and know the difference between exiting a corner and staying off to the...
