Does anyone here transport their bike to & from the track in the bed of their F150 or other truck with the smaller 5.5 bed? I think the bike would go in the truck bed diagonally when I measured it all up & still allow you to get tailgate up but haven't physically tried it. Only asking because...

Does anyone have any experience with these boots, quality, safety, how do they fit small or big (I currently wear Icon Overlord, size 12/47)? Currently on sale at Sportbike Track Gear & I need new boots. I was going to wait for the Supershow in January as I'm also in the market for a new helmet...

I know this is probably as contentious as tire choice questions but my front brake pads on the GSX-R1000 track/race bike are on their last legs & will need replacing very soon (this weekend maybe) There's lots of makes out there: Vesrah, EBC, SBS, OEM but which pads do you use & why? Bike...

I can only do 1 of the 2 I am starting to prefer GBM overall but it means another days vacation whereas Cayuga is a Saturday and I always have a lot of fun at Cayuga Hmmmm, what to do? Who's going to either of these TD's?

Looks like Cayuga have added an extra track day on Sunday July 2nd. Is anyone from on here thinking of going? Weather forecast looks good so I think I'll head down.

I'll be there. I actually initially thought it was a Thursday evening one but its a full day track day (9am start) on a Thursday so I'm up for that. Weather looks good, as far as you can tell 7 days in advance. If you are going I'll see you there.

Just wondering if anyone has pictures from Saturdays track day at TMP? Saw lots of people taking pictures, hoping some of them are on here.. Thanks.

I'm booked & paid & hoping the thunderstorms don't materialize. I'm excited to try out the new (to me) bike, I've never had suspension set up for my bodyweight etc before. Smudger

A new 3 part documentary about grass roots road racing in Ireland aired last night in the U.K. Episode 1 is on YouTube for viewing now, it's well worth watching as they follow the lives of some these guys and girls. Search for Road Riders. Smudger

Not sure which area to post this in so as I only ride on the track I thought I'd put it in here. Does anyone have experience of using the newer Bell helmets namely the Bell Star ($650) or the Bell Qualifier DX ($350)? The Star is DOT & SNELL approved while the Qualifier DX is DOT & ECE...

I have been riding track for 2 seasons now on my 26 year old ZX7 using OEM sized Dunlop Q3 tires & they work fine for me, as far as I know anyways as they are all I have experience with. The front let go on a cold, wet, windy day at TMP in May last year but apart from that I have had no issues...

http://www.kijiji.ca/v-view-details.html?requestSource=b&adId=1240322909 Converting my 2006 GSXR1000 to dedicated track bike so all the OEM bodywork is for sale, see Kijiji ad above It's the silver grey version & includes upper, lowers, tail unit, undertray, mirrors & all lights etc for $600. If...

Just wondering if anyone has any experience of using Wilbers, HyperPro or YSS shocks on their dedicated track bikes. I bought a high mileage K6 GSXR1000 in the fall to convert to a track bike to replace my trusty old ZX7 & one of the main items I want to upgrade or replace initially is the OEM...

Todays news (or yesterdays news for some) is Guy Martin has now been confirmed as joining John McGuiness at Team Honda for the 2017 TT. http://www.motorcyclenews.com/sport/tt-road-races/2017/january/roads-guy-martin-in-shock-tt-return-with-honda-racing/ I for one am glad to see Guy back racing...

Just wondering what a full set would be worth in good condition in the metallic grey colour scheme? By full set I mean fairing upper, LH/RH fairing lowers, tail unit with pillion seat & also single seat cover & mirrors. Thanks.

So my VFR has sold & the ZX7J track bike will be on Kijiji today for no other reason than I want a new project for the track, noting wrong with ZX7, its given me 3 years of great fun on the track but I want a change. I only ride on the track & am thinking about getting one of the 2 bikes in the...

Only reason I ask is that I have a very active 3.5 year old who loves motorcycles & loves being at the track (road not dirt) with daddy etc etc He can ride a bicycle without training wheels but struggles to pedal, he cant quite get the pedal over top dead center yet if you know what I mean . He...

Ok, I hope this all makes sense, here goes & I hope it's in the right forum as I only ride on track & I'm a mediocre green group rider. Bike is 1991 Zx7J with OEM front forks that have just been rebuilt with new seals & oil but still same OEM internals. Rear shock is Penske unit & to be honest...

Does anyone "in the know" have any idea when TMP usually update their website to show the track day dates for the forthcoming year? I contacted them earlier this year & they said it would be all up by mid February but still nothing is updated on their site & I didn't get a response to my last...

If only TMP or Grand Bend would open the circuit for a Xmas Eve bash, its going to be warmer & sunnier than some of the fall track days I did. Wishfull thinking lol
