    Racer5 July 4-6

    I stayed at the Blue Water Motel in town. It was perfect for a place to sleep, and it was clean. The owner was very nice to deal with.

    Am I doing it right?

    Thanks for all the feedback guys! I'm happy to hear that I'm not too far off. Next time out I will work on leaning off less, foot position, sitting further back and smoother braking/throttle. I also will re-watch Twist of the Wrist. Just for reference, I was running 1:32's for the most part...

    Am I doing it right?

    I know that I have to put my foot back further on the peg, but just wondering if I'm leaning off properly? This was only my second track day and look forward to learning more and more, just don't want to develop bad habits.

    june 22 tmp, who took pictures?

    If you watch the first 20 seconds of your video with the other riding going through turn 1, I rode his line a few times and the track felt fairly smooth. However I could be wrong, it was only my second track day.

    june 22 tmp, who took pictures?

    I've got a question about turn 6. On corner entry once I start leaning the bike over, there is a huge bump, kind of like a seam in the pavement. There is also a ripple if you were taking a late apex. Any tips on finding a better and smoother line through there without being off the racing line?

    June 7th TMP, Roll call

    I was hoping to get out on the 21st or 22nd for a track day, anyone know who's running that one? I'm pretty new to the track and may have not seen the coolant and wiped out myself, kind of worries me. Hopefully it goes smooth from here on...

    2004 R6 signal and horn control removal

    Thank you for your reply, I don't think there is a choke circuit as the bike is fuel injected. I would figure that if the bike were "choked" upon a cold start, that the ecu would just open the throttlebody slightly.

    2004 R6 signal and horn control removal

    Have this bike for the track. It has race fairings and no lights or anything. I would like to remove the signal and horn control from the handlebar. I looked online and there doesn't seem to be any info on it. The signal and horn wiring is routed in the same jacket as the clutch switch, I have...

    Toronto Bike Store Services = crap

    At the January bike show, my main purpose of attending was to get a 1pc suit. I walked around from vendor to vendor and tried on many suits. Finally ended up at the GP bikes booth, the sales lady asked if I needed help, I asked for a specific model, size and colour. I also asked if I could try...
