Wha??!? How can you not like Miller??? You've obviously never ridden there. By far the nicest track in the US.

Getting my ass handed to me as an expert, but improving. Cut 2 seconds off my fastest time at LVMS last weekend during the WERA round. I'm debating doing the track day tomorrow to see if I can cut a...

I'll be there. It's going to be a busy couple of weeks for me. WERA races the weekend before WSBK, then doing a track day after the WSBK round on Monday with a bunch of friends.

That's pretty sweet, getting trophies during your first races. I got my first ones this year, during my 2nd season (and I've got a little stack of them going now). I guess that's a big downside to...

I don't want to get too sucked into this, but everyone has their own optimum riding position. Just for reference, here's pics of Hodgson and DiSalvo at the last LVMS track day, with Mark Bodecker (on...

Thanks guys. I actually like the geometry of the R6 but the power of the 636. I'm down about 8 or so hp from the 636, but the bike turns in a hell of a lot faster.

2-piece suits don't stretch as much in the back (at least any that I've ever seen), so you'll probably lose some mobility there. Just remember, you get what you pay for with suits, read some reviews...
