    lessons learned the hard way

    THIS. Time spent at track days testing suspension and adjusting settings and testing (and so on...) is time well spent. Keep a log book with settings that work, so next time you return you can reset your suspension to what was working for you previously - as a baseline.

    lessons learned the hard way

    Some I learned myself, some I heard other learned the hard way. If by yourself, set up so you can drive up to your pit area and access your rear stand from where you would dismount your bike. Nothing worse than standing there holding up your bike with your stand 5 feet away and out of reach...

    where are all the end of season track bike deals??

    Agreed... given its price (if I were to minus my extensive spares) its comparable to mine in price too. Surprised niether have sold yet.

    where are all the end of season track bike deals??

    Probably this. The bike likely really went down as a street bike (despite the advert) and turned into a track bike. I personally ended up paying around $300 bucks to get the title for the GSXR600 im selling, taxes, transfers, uvip, etc. Plus, its not really needed for a track bike, just helps...

    Never said I was gonna make money back. Hense, losing 2000 bucks. That said, I'll continue to find ways to make the bike more attractive to prospective buyers.

    where are all the end of season track bike deals??

    I agree, I'm not putting any more money into it other than to tune it and get the dyno print out. I'm losing already, I'd rather not lose my shirt. I know its well priced because of the amount of interest I've received. It hasn't sold largely because the buyers interested in the lower than 3k...

    where are all the end of season track bike deals??

    Nice sarcasm. Yeah, because dumping more money into a bike to make it even better means I should lose even more money. I'm already losing over 2k on this bike, if I'm storing until spring and making it even better, I'm not about to give the shirt off my back as well. Some people are just damn...

    I don't think Lee Kuhn ever raced an R6, he did have an SV650, then went to Triumph before he raced the Harley Davidson series. Maybe after the harley days?

    where are all the end of season track bike deals??

    My GSXR is up for sale. I guess it depends on what the OP considers a good "deal". I wouldn't (and never have) ridden a "cheap" bike on the track. Cheap doesn't mean deal really... anyways, Im losing money on my sale, so I figure its well priced. SOLD link removed Updated price. Body work...

    03 gsxr-600 rear suspension

    A stock rear shock will provide the level of precision and adjustment you are likely looking for. If spending the money for a quality rear shock, it makes sense to balance the bike with the front end receiving springs, good oil, and a freshening up. If you have a bank roll to kill, front fork...

    run don't walk - bike for sale on gta

    Exactly, but the scenario I presented is so outragous, that so would your scenario of an officer finding probable cause to investigate a bike on a flat bed trailer, for no other reason of a traffic stop. Fleeing the scene of a 911 call and theft of motorcycle in progress, that's another animal...

    IF he has reasonable and probable grounds. And if the vehicle is in plain sight. Scenario: Driver pulled over with bike in pickup bed, all fairing and numbered up. "Where ya going?" "Shannonville Racetrack for a track day" "Oh. Well since you are just going on your way down the road...

    I originally posted a long winded post picking yours apart, and the various things that are wrong with it. I deleted it so not as to deviate from this threads original topic. To the OP, and to the mechanic: The mechanic should hire a bailiff to handle the RSLA so it is done properly...

    run don't walk - bike for sale on gta

    if the buyer was pulled over, the police would not be able to take any action whatsoever. The bike would be on a trailer, and their checking its vin number while transported on a lawfully licensed trailer would be illigal search and seizure. The vehicle would have been lawfull obtained, though...

    run don't walk - bike for sale on gta

    Yes, I can comment on the option of "selling the lien". A Lien is non-transferable. Ownership of the bike remains with the actual registered owner the entire time, until the Mechanic exercises right under law to either SELL or RETAIN, and has taken appropriate steps as previously described...

    run don't walk - bike for sale on gta

    If you are a licensed repair facility or shop, or you have a written authorization from the owner or authorized person to perform repair work to the bike, and that amount for repairs and reasonable storage remains unpaid, you are entitled to a lien under the Repair and Storage liens act. That...

    What ever happened to Sgt. Dennis Mahoney-Bruer?

    Sadly, I bet the trial turned not into the crown providing realistic proof, but an argument back and forth about the level or quality of proof(s), and a lot of it being discounted. That or the crown just buggered the whole case or screwed up on something critical. I hope the crown appeals just...
