    Roll Call: Road Atlanta April 18-20

    I am in for Sunday Novice love RA. I attended my first RA track day last August Novice rider, no chicane, Second RA was in November Novice, and we ran Chicane. In Novice I could tell no difference. Did not seem like any more or less issues between the two events. I did not pay attention, but as...

    Insurance and the track

    that was my feelings as well. I tracked my 07 tuono factory bike, and after 3 track days, I realized I was hesitant to really ride it hard. (I am a novice rider) so I got a cheap 2,800.00 track bike. If I wade it up, I sell what I can and get another. During the off season you can get lots of...

    Van and Trailer Pimpin

    A lot of people do not realize the 350 van can have a FRONT mount hitch as well. Add a rear hitch and a front hitch. You could then put a cargo carrier front and back. Or my solution would be class 5 hitch front and rear with one of those bike carriers in each hitch. Load one bike on front...

    great bike, wish the economy was better and I felt I could take the risk and buy it for my track bike. I have a SV1000, but the chance to move up to EBR track bike would be nice.

    Barber Info

    not sure if you have been to barber (I am assuming you have) but just in case, these are my notes from my last event Barber gates are open until 9pm on Friday and 6pm on Saturday and Sunday Barber is locked/gated. You can park and spend the night there; however there are no restrooms available...

    Barber Info

    not sure why you really want / need water at barber. the facilities there are so nice, clean, and large I have always had an empty stall, or shower when I went in. But if as noted above it does not affect gas mileage, then it would be nice to have. As noted above (great explanation) other...

    entry level GPS lap timer

    great comments thanks. At this point, I do not have a phone with data plan, so I am thinking that would not work. I sit at a desk 99% of my day, so no real need to use my phone for data. I have a laptop so I just take it home every night. I commute on my bike so no real use for data at that...

    entry level GPS lap timer

    XT GP pro looks great, but at 500+ dollars I think more track days is a better option. I would not mind "missing one track day" to buy a decent unit, but much over 125.00 and I am not sure I would give up the track time.

    entry level GPS lap timer

    thanks, I am doing all that. I have a gopro on my tail section to see my body position. and I have a buddy that rides "I" and I get him to follow me on occasion and that seems to help me the most. I know my body position is my biggest need. But I am a very visual person, and I do learn best...

    Anybody Regret Leaving the street?

    I still "commute" almost every day to work on my bike. But I would not call that street riding. If you mean the GA, TN & NC mountains, gave that up last year when I started riding track seriously. As some have noted above dual sport riding is now my main none track riding. I can take it up...

    Safety wiring. 'Nuff said. But what about loose bolts?

    Many (I know Ed Bargy does) vendors have "kits" they are not that expensive. It contains many of the minimum necessary bolts already drilled. You just take out your old bolt, install the new one and you are done. Also at one time I had a link to an on-line vendor, that offered any bolt in...
